The Barn

We had a lovely weeks stay at The Barn.

The host was welcoming and suggested places of interest. We were able to enjoy the beautiful countryside as we travelled across the Yorkshire Moors and the Yorkshire Dales. We enjoyed the hot tub at the end of the day while we relaxed and planned our next day excursions. We walked into Northallerton on the Saturday, to the market. Had lunch, before heading back to enjoy the sunshine and watch the wildlife. Will certainly recommend this to family and friends with or without children as it caters from adults and children. As two adults we still enjoyed the games room playing air hockey or football. Plenty of outdoor games too, if needed.

We have just had a Fantastic week at the Barn, the accommodation was just as advertised .

Just what you need for a weeks relaxation. Our host Cliff is a mine of local information. Would highly recommend the Barn. Thanks to Cliff.

Welcome pack was amazing and Cliff the host very informative and helpful.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house and highly recommend. Under floor heating kept properly warm and the beds comfortable with luxurious quilt and pillows. Had great time in hot tub relaxing and looking at the views and watching the birds. Phil the maintenance man also very helpful and friendly. Thanks for a very pleasant holiday.

We have just returned home after our second stay at South Thornborough Farm.

A lovely holiday cottage in a beautiful setting. Everything needed to live comfortably is provided. We had 2 1/2 weeks of pure bliss making use of the hot tub on an evening. Cliff and his team are very welcoming, friendly and helpful.

We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay at the Barn!

Beautiful property & location, with lovely views over the fields & all amenities close by. Hot tub & animals were a bonus! We love Yorkshire, having visited before & wouldn't hesitate about staying here again. Thanks Cliff for your warm hospitality!

Owner kindly provided a welcome hamper Also bbq essentials.

Was very friendly & helpful in providing tips on places to visit. We enjoyed our chats with the owner, and playing with his amusing character of a dog. Funny. Everything was straight forward to do & use, including the lovely hot tub. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Lovely comfortable and quirky property in a beautiful, peaceful location.

Enjoyed our stay at The Barn.

Lovely property in a beautiful setting . Gorgeous views from all windows. Loved watching the wild life , the pheasants kept us entertained, didn’t realise they could run as fast as they do. Thought the animals on the farm were lovely too especially the two little goat kids.Property is well kept and very comfortable , sad we had to return home. Thank you for a lovely stay Cliff. Will hopefully come back sometime. Lorraine and Abi.

Our holiday at The Barn was made excellent by the warm welcome we received by the owner.

The hamper was very thoughtful and appreciated after cycling nearly 80 miles to get there. He also told us of good cycling places to visit and even offered to take us to some if we wanted. The property itself was perfect, clean and very comfortable, like home from home. A beautiful place to cycle too even though hilly. It was worth the effort.

We were more than happy with our cottage,we had all that we needed,home from Home feel.

we also had a well stocked welcome pack this was a lovely surprise.thank you for that. The hot tub was a great size,games room was great with lots to do for kids,Clifford was full off information on great days out,very welcoming as well.lovely location well maintained, very happy all round

Such an amazing cottage!

It has everything you need and the owner is friendly and knowledgable, responded straight away to queries and left us to enjoy the cottage in peace. Have been to lots of cottages, this was the best bed I’ve slept in! The shower is fantastic too. There’s lots of puzzles and games, but if you just want to chill with the TV, it has all the streaming channels. Kitchen is small but perfectly formed with everything you need, but take everything you need, there’s no oil, herbs etc as storage is on the kitchen worktop, so nowhere for previous renters to leave items for the next guests. The views are wonderful, and I really enjoyed watching the sun rise from my bed each morning. It’s only 5 mins by car into Northallerton, 15 mins to Thirsk, and there’s loads around to do and see. I cannot recommend The Barn enough. It’s been heavenly, and I plan to return as soon as I can.

Stayed for 3 weeks to help tide us over a house move.

Well equipped, very cosy and an excellent base for exploring North Yorkshire. Very clean and comfortable and the hot tub was a very welcome way to de-stress when dealing with a house move! A few minor maintenance issues but quickly resolved when we raised them. Thanks.

The holiday property is lovely.

eveything you needed to use , the bed was a bit to high for me but very comfortable one in it . Hot tub was good nice to get into after being out all day Easy access to Northallerton town and other places. The only thing I would say it would be nice to a cupboard for food rather than on the work tops . Definitely would recommend to friends to go stay

We loved staying here.

Property was clean and spacious, great location on the farm. The owner was really helpful and every day enjoyed our feedback after visiting various locations. His knowledge was invaluable. Look forward to visit Yorkshire again soon.

Cliff is a lovely gent with great knowledge of the area which came very handy.

The cottage is beaut8 equipped and well located to explore the local area( Approximately an hour to Whitby, Richmond and York). The hot tub was an essential part of the booking for us as we knew it would be a welcome end to a days exploring. It is a working farm, so expect a little smell at times but go and say hello to the llamas, horses and goats! Great location, lovely cottage.

Lovely location and ideal for touring around Yorkshire.

Lovely comfortable cottage and very friendly and helpful owners. Welcome hamper was a nice treat as well. Northallerton is very close by with some loverly shops to visit. Can recommend Bianco restaurant and White Rock Fish& Chips.

Clifford was a very generous and helpful host.

Lovely bright and airy property in a beautiful quiet location. Ideal base for getting around North Yorkshire. Very comfortable accommodation with ideal facilities for a very relaxing break..

Excellent facilities including games room and hot tub.

Disappointed no recycling. Lovely property in excellent surroundings. Would be happy to recommend to anyone.

Lovely cottage, clean with all the home comforts.

Ideal location to explore Yorkshire. Cliff, the host is friendly and full of information about the area and where to visit. Loved the farm with its animals, and wildlife, Fantastic views over the countryside from the cottage. The hot tub is also an added bonus.

A lovely , clean cottage, There was a generous welcome pack and Clifford was a mine of local information, he told us about many places we could visit.

The hot tub was a bonus and we used it most days after sightseeing. We would definitely recommend The Barn.

The best cottage we have stayed in for a long time.

Beautiful location, very clean and comfortable and the hot tub is a fantastic extra. Everything you need is provided right down to the Welcome Pack which exceeded any expectations and is a kind gesture which we really appreciated. The owner Cliff is warm, welcoming and very knowledgeable about the local area and provides suggestions of the best places to visit during your stay. We are already booking our next visit to the Barn and can’t wait to return. Thank you Cliff for a wonderful relaxing break.

Lovely few days away, we were blown away with the barn and hot tub.

Large inside, very warm with under floor heating. Beds comfy. Very chilled thank you!

The property was well presented, clean and had everything we needed for our stay, including an excellent hot tub.

The owner provided a welcome pack which was unexpected but very much appreciated. The owner also went ‘the extra mile’ and gave us fireworks to let off on New Year’s Eve.

Amazingly relaxing week away in a lovely part of the country.

Cliff gave us plenty of ideas for day trips and everyone was very friendly and helpful. Accommodation was spotless, well equipped and very comfy. The hot tub was a welcome treat every evening.

Had a wonderful stay at the Barn.

From the excellent welcome pack, to the wonderful property, we were extremely happy with our choice of holiday home. Lots of lovely places to visit and some great days out had. Some of our friends have seen our pictures and seem keen to visit too!

Absolutely a great place ,everything that's needed in the barn and always a very nice welcome pack waiting for you ,used the hot tub very day would absolutely recommend the barn

We had an excellent stay at the Barn, where everything made our week very enjoyable.

Cliff the host was very welcoming and helpful, suggesting activities and destinations. The cottage was very clean, comfortable, pleasant, quiet and very well equipped. The hot tub was a bonus coming back after hot days out. The Barn is very well located for lots of places to visit and walks to enjoy - many more than we could fit into a week! Many thanks to Cliff and his family and helpers who made this a very enjoyable holiday.

We cannot recommend The Barn highly enough.

Wonderful location just outside Northallerton but with a rural outlook and countryside views. Comfortable and well appointed accommodation and excellent facilities including hot tub and entertainment for the kids (football goal, table football, air hockey etc) And so many things to do in the local area. The Barn offered everything we were looking for for a fantastic family holiday!

The Barn has everything you need for a break away from home.

It is clean & comfortable. The hot tub is definitely an added bonus, it was huge! There is a lovely welcome pack waiting for you when you arrive. Cliff is very friendly welcoming & has great advice for things to do in the area. He couldn't have been more helpful. Will definitely recommend it to friends.

Thank you Cliff, Maxwell and co for a wonderful stay.

We were given a warm and generous welcome. The Barn was incredibly well equipped. Pleasantly surprised how much was included in the barn, even things like dishwasher tablets and toilet roll. Lovely and clean. The hot tub felt great after a day walking about. My 9 year old could have spent all day looking at the farm animals, and petting Maxwell. Highlight of her trip! (We did double check a baby goat hadn't been stashed in the car before leaving!!). Really handy location, only couple of minutes into Northallerton and the railway station. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others to visit. Thanks again!

Recently had a fantastic stay at The Barn.

The accommodation was excellent and very peaceful surroundings. Cliff the owner was very informative and gave us details of local walks to do in the surrounding area including Highparadise and Richmond which we enjoyed then returning back to the Barn and relaxing in the Hot Tub in the evening was a bonus. The Barn is close to Northallerton for all your needs and its within easy reach of Whitby and the North Yorkshire Railway should you fancy a trip on a Steam train and Goathland was worth a visit if only just to see the station and where Heartbeat filmed as Aidensfield. Depending on time of year RSPB Bempton Cliffs is worth a visit to see breeding Puffins and beautiful Gannets. The welcome hamper went down a treat and we would have no hesitation in recommending The Barn to friends and family as a great place to stay. Thank you x

The barn was really clean, comfortable, well furnished and private.

Had a lovely holiday.

A well kept cottage In a peaceful location with all amenities you need for a holiday A very special mention to Maxwell and Cliff for their warm hospitality

A beautiful, peaceful week.

The Barn is a welcoming, cosy place with wonderful views over open countryside . There was lots of information on visitor attractions in the area and after a day’s sightseeing there was nothing better than relaxing in the spacious hot tub. A fantastic week was had by all, thanks.

Beautiful property , interior was lovely , great location hot tub was wonderful after a days walking will definitely return host cliff was very welcoming

The Barn was the perfect place to explore Yorkshire.

It was in a central location to be able to access the Dales and the Moors. The Barn itself was perfect for our family of 4. We were given a fabulous welcome from the owner who shared ideas for days out and places to eat. There was also a welcome hamper which was very appreciated. The property had everything you needed with a spacious living area and clean and comfortable bedrooms. There was the added luxury of having a hot tub and a range of games including table football and croquet. The hot tub was easy to work and had bluetooth speakers and it was covered so could be enjoyed even in the rain. The kitchen was compact but had all the utensils you needed. Wereally couldn't fault our stay and would recommend to others.

Our family of four had a terrific stay in The Barn.

The property was spotlessly clean, and was an excellent base for exploring North Yorkshire. The hot tub was a brilliant way to relax after a day out, while our children had great fun with the table top football. We hope to return!

This is a fabulous place to stay.

There is everything you need and it is very well furnished with some lovely touches and warm, comfortable and cosy. Some lovely views and a very ample hot tub to relax in. It is within walking distance of Northallerton and all it offers. Highly recommended!

Wonderful property.

Great location to explore North Yorkshire. So many things to do and see. Property owner super friendly and helpful.

Great accommodation.

Owner thought of everything. Really comfortable furnishings and bed. Nice quirky decorations. Lovely welcome hamper. Great to watch the birds or evening sky from the hot tub. Lots of outdoor games provided, Cliff was a good amicable host.

Lovely cottage, central to many places of interest.

Cottage was beautiful, clean and comfortable with great facilities. Hot tub was terrific after a day sightseeing. Cliff is a very welcoming and helpful host. A great source of knowledge about the area too. Highly recommended. We had a great stay.

Clifford Pearson greeted us on arrival with a warm and friendly welcome.

The Barn was very clean and comfortable and well appointed. The views starting at the front door were stunning, including the sunsets. There is a good space for car parking right by the property. One tiny thing to mention is that the freezer is small and the French Windows stick so we left them closed rather than force them open. Apart from that, we had a lovely stay and recommend the property. Maxwell the dog is a beautiful, quiet and disciplined dog, his occasional visits for a bit of fuss were unobtrusive and brief but welcome .

The description of the property and the pictures does not do the property justice, The Barn is lovely, spacious and open and very comfortable.

Cliff was a great host and really helpful in advising us of places to go, the hot tub was wonderful. We would definetly be booking here again.

We enjoyed our stay at The Barn very much.

Cliff was very friendly & helpful & even gave me an old phone of his when I accidentally forgot mine was in my pocket when I went into the hot tub. Apart from that mishap, it was a great week.

The property and facilities were generally very good.

The property could do with a small amount of general maintenance to correct things like a bedroom door that doesn’t stay shut and a loose toilet seat. Hot tub very nice. The biggest downside for us was the fact that on Monday morning at 6am work started to take the chickens away for slaughter. Lots of noise and then an appalling smell as the sheds are cleared out. No mention in the listing of how close the barn and other properties are to the chicken sheds! Less than 100m. That spoilt the stay as we couldn’t stay outside because of the smell.

wonderful cottage, very clean and comfortable, Owners very helpful, situated quite central to all attractions, will stay again

We had a fabulous week at The Barn .

Accommodation was perfect and just as described. Lovely location and very peaceful . Only a short walk into town with shops , pubs amenities etc . Cliff was a great host based on the farm and guided us to some great places . Will we definitely return and recommend . Yorkshire is beautiful.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, very comfortable cottage .

Lovely and quiet ! Very helpful owner .

The barn was lovely.

It was equipped with everything we could have needed, was in a lovely location and really comfortable. Cliff also left a very generous welcome basket. We especially enjoyed the big LED-lit floating bed, the fabulous hottub, the heated floor and, the best part by far was the visit to see barn ful of newly hatched chicks. It was the highlight of the stay for the kids.

Amazing barn very comfortable and spotless.

It really did have the wow factor

The Barn is absolutely gorgeous.

The pictures do not do it justice. It has everything you need with a well equipped kitchen. It was like home from home. The bed is soooooo comfy. Probably the most comfiest bed we have ever slept in with the added bonus of waking up to a lovely view. The downstairs underfloor heating was just heavenly, just what you need coming in from the hot tub and cold. Cliff the host was amazing; just couldn't do enough to make sure our stay was the best it could be, even cutting short his Christmas dinner to sort out the hot tub. Being a big lover of all animals, I enjoyed popping round to the shed to see the goats and Rheas, and fussing Maxwell, Cliffs dog . The hot tub just put the icing on the cake; it in a great setting with views over the field...what more can you ask for? Overall we had a great stay and will definitely be back for another visit..

We had an excellent stay at the barn.

Cliff is a fabulous host who went the extra mile to make my birthday trip really special. Would definitely stay again and would recommend

Absolutely lovely cottage, home away from home, very comfortable, with everything and more that you could need.

The hot tub is amazing after a day of exploring. Cliff the owner is extraordinarily helpful, with lots of ideas on exploring the area. My teenage children loved the farm environment, especially the animals.

Lovely comfy clean place for our holiday.

The owner is very nice and helped us with things to do in the area. Enjoyed hot tub at the end of the day and visiting the animals on the farm.

Lovely place to stay home from home, the hot tub is a real bonus, a perfect way to relax after a day of sight seeing, bike riding or shopping.

Cliff was so welcoming and a source of knowledge and advice which saves a lot of time. We will be back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A great stay in a very nice location, felt like being in the countryside, but only a mile from busy town.

Host very friendly and helpful enjoyed chatting and getting lots of information about local attractions. Hot tub is a bonus at the end of a day exploring. Lovely welcome pack from host.

We were delighted with the space, the quality of the fittings and finishings as well as the lovely welcome pack on arrival!

Our Christmas was made as a result of this stay and we hope to return in warmer weather for more fun times!

What a fantastic cottage .

Everything you could possibly want . And the hot tub was perfect for relaxing .

As always Sykes delivered exactly as described , which is why I've put "met expectations" , as a high standard of accommodation is always delivered.

The barn is just spot on, exceptionally clean, comfortable, plenty of pots and crockery to facilitate self catering , the bed is very comfortable, bathroom huge, and then the added bonus of the hot tub under cover, what more could you ask for, except maybe a lovely welcome pack with wine chocolates, biscuits etc........which there was one waiting for us! Clifford is very friendly and welcoming and full of information about local places to visit, and his side kick Maxwell was always very pleased to see people. We had fun feeding the goats, llamas and rhea's. The barn is ideally situated 1.5 mile away from the town of Northallerton, where there is everything you could wish for, shops bars and cafes, The Garthway cafe, is well worth a visit for a cup of tea and scone. The barn is also ideally located for visiting other places of interest nearby, such as Thirsk, Richmond ,Whitby and lovely walks from Kilburn. I would recommend The Barn to anyone as I cant imagine why anyone would not be happy spending time there and meeting Clifford and Maxwell.

Host very friendly and helpful with advice on the area Had a very lovely welcome hamper left which was very kind and enjoyable.

The animals kept there were great and enjoyed seeing them whenever we wanted to aswell as feeding them a complete joy for an animal lover. Maxwell the farm dog was fantastic too, The Barn was everything we wanted together with the hot tub and location perfect. Northallerton we loved and the surroundings made for a great holiday and we would definitely recommend here.

Lovely gesture of a welcome basket - tea bags, coffee chocolates etc.

The cottage is well furnished and decorated, the owner really has thought about everything you could possibly need. The owner and his dog are very friendly and very knowledgeable on the local area. The hot tub was great and the location was lovely and easy to find.

Lovely welcome by the owner and very clean with lots of extras provided nothing was too much trouble and advice given on local area, walks and beauty spots.

We loved visiting the animals, feeding them and lovely views. Hot tub being covered was great and we enjoyed sitting out and using the outdoor games provided.

Just it was all we had hoped for and more,and the weather also was great.

yes we will visit again.

The cottage was perfect for our get away.

Cliff was brilliant and the welcome hamper was a lovely touch. We felt at home from the moment we arrived. If we plan another trip in this area this will be the first port of call for availability.

Cliff is an amazing host, he's there when you need him but gives you a wide berth for maximum peace.

It is a working farm, but we barely heard a peep! Very quiet, peaceful and relaxing. Games available in the house, loads of pamphlets and information in every last thing in and around the entire of yorkshire - incredible. Well stocked kitchen, such a lovely welcome basket too! The house was absolutely spotless clean, always warm, so spacious and comfortable. I have never enjoyed a stay like this one - already planning my next visit for 5 months time, cannot wait! The hot tub is beautiful, huge, prepped and ready for your arrival, every need is catered for so well. Thank you so much, Cliff! You are, by far, the best host we have ever had!!! Absolutely incredible place, so peaceful and in such a lovely location. The town (Northallerton) is a matter of minutes away, with so many shops and supermarkets and everything you could ever need!! Not too close but not too far from anything you want! Cannot wait to return, 5 stars isn't nearly enough!!!

Owner superb.

Extremely helpful and great local knowledge.

Comfortable accommodation ,a few little issues which were promptly resolved by Mr Pearson.

Lovely place to stay, very comfortable and spacious.

Hot tub was perfect after a busy day out.

The Barn was great and the owner Cliff couldn’t have been more pleasant or helpful.

We had a lovely holiday.

The Barn was better than I imagined.

It was clean, tidy, comfortable and had great facilities. It is around an hour's drive from a lot of great stuff in North Yorkshire. The hot tub wasn't the reason we chose this cottage but it was a great addition. We spent most evenings in it, with a cold drink. The kids absolutely loved it. We only had two issues with the Barn. One was an issue with the hot water, and as soon as Cliff was made aware of it he arranged for it to be sorted and offered us discounted tickets to the Forbidden Corner by way of an apology. The second was that there wasn't really anywhere to dry clothes. A whirlygig would really make all the difference. These are, though, minor issues and wouldn't stop us going back to the Barn. We absolutely would go back there again, and highly recommend it. We went to Flamingo Land, Eden Camp and Scarborough (twice). Darlington is half an hour up the road and offered cinemas, shopping and places to go and eat. We went to Whitby but were not all that impressed with it. We mixed a lot in to our week away. I honestly feel that after a week, there was still a lot we didn't have time to see.

The Barn is handily located on the outskirts of Northallerton, set back from the main road the only noise disturbance is bird song!

! Northallerton is so well located for other local towns & North Yorkshire’s beautiful villages! Of the ‘things to do’ Kiplin Hall is well worth a visit, however The Forbidden Corner whilst excellent for kids is disappointing for us concession ticket qualifiers who would have benefited from ‘concession maps’ NOT available! We only got to see half of it, we were glad to escape. On a positive note lovely shops in Northallerton, Thirsk, Richmond. Do visit Bedale, Sutton Bank& more.

Could not fault The Barn in anyway.

Would heartily recommend The Barn to anyone.I would also thoroughly recommend Sykes as a company we have booked 4 Holidays and all have exceeded our expectations.

Fantastic place for a Holiday.

.. Made very welcome by Cliff...and of course Maxwell... 10 /10 for Hospitality...

Outstanding cottage with all the facilities required for a holiday with two children.

Plenty of space and well maintained. Hot tub ready and waiting for us on arrival The owner (Cliff) couldn't be more helpful. Highly recommended.

Great cottage in a good location for both Yorkshire Dales and Yorkshire Moors.

Owner welcoming and informative. Light and spacious for four people. Lovely and warm with underfloor heating. Hot tub an added bonus. Great value for money would recommend and definite return in the future.

Ready for outside maintenance and general tidying.

TVs in both bedrooms not working. Black mould in bedroom ensuite. Hot tub very chemically. Fire alarms very sensitive, toasting bread setting them off.

Had a wonderful holiday , the cottage was very cosy and had the wow factor.

The welcome basket was unexpected but such a nice surprise and I must say very generous. The owner ( sorry I forgot his name ) was very friendly and happy to give tips on all things local and if there were any problems he would be there to help , which is all you can ask. On clear days the sunrises and sunsets were spectacular ( especially the sunrises which could be seen straight out the bedroom window) . Northallerton was just over a mile down the road and had a lot of diverse shops to wander through, also a market on Saturdays and Wednesdays , you could park in Tesco free for 2 hours or there’s a private car park for all day parking for between £1:50 and £2 ( Saturday). Northallerton is in a perfect spot for visiting numerous places we enjoyed visiting Bedale , Richmond, Ripon and Thirsk. So I would have no hesitation in recommending this holiday let .

The property exceeded itself and was much better than expected.

Well, worth a visit again.

Lovely cottage.

Good facilities. The hot tub was definitely a bonus. The owner was most helpful in recommending places to visit.

The cottage was lovely and the hot tub amazing.

Cliff the owner was very helpful and recommended some great places to visit. The beds were really comfy and we all slept really well. There was lads of games we played and loads of leaflets and books of the local area. Highly recommended.

the cottage was lovely spacious and very bright and had everything could require.

However there was a problem with the hottub at the barn property fallowing a power cut overnight on first night(which therefore outwith owners control) however as the lodge close by was not being utelised were told we could use the hottub on that property instead, which we did so a a few occassions. Therefore shows owner being very helpful to clients

AS BEFORE, ANOTHER GREAT BREAK.

We spent the most memorable Christmas at The Barn.

The owner was extremely helpful and nothing was too much trouble for him. The property is located quite central to a lot of the major cities. We would definitely look to rebook The Barn again in the future.

Stop looking around and book this place NOW!

It’s amazing! I’m a really really demanding customer who spends forever to find the perfect place to stay! This place was perfect! The pictures do not do it justice at all. They are all accurate, but I don’t think they quiet capture just how nice this place is. It was much larger then we expected! The facilities are unreal! There is everything you could wish for in the kitchen! The cupboards are stocked full of games and DVD’s. The furnishings are very high spec and the bedding is stunning! All top quality! This was a very last minute booking and the place was immaculate and spotless! We even had a very generous welcome hamper, consisting of a bottle of Cava, a jar of coffee, some delicious biscuits and a large back of Tyrell’s potatoes chips! The hot tub was immaculate wand nicely bubbling away when we arrived! It’s great to use on a cold winters night. The views are stunning and their is so much todo within a short driving distance. Takeaways will easily deliver, or there is a Tesco Supermarket only 5 mins drive away! There are also some beautiful restaurants and pubs in Northallerton 5 mins away on the high street which is really cute and quaint. We would tell everyone to book this place, but I do hope it’s availabile for us to return as often as we would like! You are going to be delighted if you stay here!

Lovely cottage.

Well equipped with lots of games and DVDs and everything you need. Lots of little touches like apple chargers etc that were available if needed. An unexpected welcome pack was provided - biscuits, cakes, chocolate, wine etc which was a nice surprise. The "disco hot tub" was great - equipped with music and lights. Friendly owner who ensured we had everything we needed and gave us advice on places to visit. Even gave us some free tickets for Flamingo Land that he had so we had a free day out. Love the animals on the farm - Llamas, Rheas and the dogs. Maxwell the dog came bounding towards us every time we returned back to the cottage wanting a cuddle. Would definitely recommend this cottage especially if you have children,
