What guests are saying
A lovely stay at the Old Post Office Barn; a really cosy stay for two with everything we needed.
Great access to the Roaches straight from the door.
We enjoyed our stay at the the Post Office Barn very much.
Just to say the settee was low for us and it was difficult to stand up from! I should say we would have hoovered through before leaving but there was not one available. We did use the dust pan and brush but that's not so easy! We might have used the pub next door for meals but they were on holiday! You do push the pub on your advertising.
This small property is perfect for a couple.
It has everything you could possibly need, is spotlessly clean, is decorated beautifully and has a very comfortable king-size bed. Lovely views and a first class pub next door. If you want to explore The Roaches, it is ideal as you get first pick of the limited parking spots!
