“We had the most wonderful family trip to Brookley Barn, I booked it for my husband's 50th birthday and it was absolutely perfect.”
From our arrival late in the evening, when we turned up to a warm home with a very welcome bottle of wine next to some beautiful flowers, to the wonderful sheep in the field opposite who found us very amusing as we pottered around the property! I have to say, as a townie, you haven't lived until you've seen a sheep joyfully rolling down a hill! LOL The welcome pack eggs and shortbread, and the excellent info in the folders, made the stay stress-free and Lisa was amazing help when I discovered my husband's lovely family wanted to come over and spend time with him, and she helped me arrange the car parking so his mum could spend the day with her son. Also I was able to make two birthday cakes while there, as I am a professional baker and had promised my brother in law and mother in law cakes as their birthdays were in the same week, so I'm happy to report the oven baked to perfection. The bathroom was gorgeous and the beds so comfortable it was hard to wake the children in the mornings! My only very tiny niggle was the smell of the manure when in the front garden, but it is a working farm and the house inside smelled divine, so you got used to the faint aroma outside very quickly, and I am happy to say it didn't ruin our stay at all. Brookely Barn was a fantastic venue for my husband's milestone birthday and the whole family absolutely loved every minute of our time there. It was the very first holiday in years where I actually relaxed and came back refreshed, so thank you to all at Brookely Barn for such a brilliant trip!
