Brambles Barn Reviews

Malcolm
A lovely stay, very happy to go back next time I'm in the area.
Amanda-jayne
We came to The Brambles for a second time with family, we really enjoyed ourselves. Very clean and the Kitchen is well equiped to cook a Christmas Dinner. The Lounge is cosy with soft throws and the beds are comfortable, we all slept well. We loved the hot tub! Views are amazing! One thing though, the hot tub lid does block the view and the sunset, its a shame its not on the right, that way it would offer a little privacy from the guests in the other lodge. We had a lovely chat with the owner, who is kind and accomodating. Overall, we would happily return to the Brambles.
Lovely location. Difficult to find, if using sat nav put it Brambles Barn rather than the postcode as 2 farms share the same postcode and it takes you to the wrong one. The facilities were ok, but a few things didnt work. For example the downstairs walkin shower, knob for temperature control on the cooker, no instructions how to adjust the jets on the jacuzzi, the jacuzzi lid blocks the beautiful view but leaves you exposedoverlooked by neighbouring properties. All little things, but when added together not what i would expect for the cost. I have stayed in a few places similar to this and unfortunately would not stay here again.
Joanna
We had the most wonderful stay at Brambles Barn. We received a very warm welcome from Heather who was available throughout our stay should we need anything. However the accommodation was faultless. We cant wait to return again next year! Our little son Brodie loves animals and the cows, sheep, ducks, chickens and cat had him mesmerised!
