We rented Swift Barn and the Granary for a group of 10 adults and 4 kids. It was perfect. The nicest place we have stayed - and we stay in quite a few places! Kitchen was fantastically well supplied, beds super comfortable and the whole place was very high spec. Although it rained solidly for a whole day (it was November), we had a fabulous day, cooped up inside, cooking, eating, drinking and catching up on the gossip. An ideal place for a get together with friends or family. Response: Thank you for taking the time to review Swift Barn- we are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay with friends (despite the dreadful weather!) It is nice to know that the barns are cosy and comfortable even in November when it is pouring with rain! |
