We had a wonderful stay at Norwood Barn, it was warm, cosy and romantic, perfect for a week stay.

Our most relaxed holiday ever. With our son's dog first time. Worried how to cope. They are used to dog/not dog - perfectly. Dogs stay downstairs and everything starts spotless and is easy to clean. Facilities second to none/all working, includes: log fire/heating, Iron/board/dressing gowns/slippers/all kitchen utensils and equipment (very modern - including water heater, microwave/full oven) and of course hot tub. Parking outside door. Perfect hosts always available not nosey. Do it.

We went to Norwood Barn for a Christmas break. When we first arrived we met Nicki & Emma, they were very welcoming. The owners had made the barn look amazing, with a beautiful Christmas tree and decorations. There was also some lovely Christmas treats for us on arrival. The location is stunning, nothing but green fields and so peaceful. The hot tub was an added bonus. The hosts were lovely, nothing was to much trouble Very dog friendly. We will definitely be back.

Juan Pedro

This cottage is superb! Attention to detail and very well equipped. The hot tub was really nice and very good instructions provided. The wall plugs had usb connectors to charge our devices. This little thing is just something that gives a premium feel to the cottage. The curtained were covered with black out so it was dark during the morning which was good to stay sleeping. The bed and lined really good and comfy. Nikki was very helpful and we recommend this place to anyone.

Jane

Lovely well appointed clean barn When we stayed the hot tub and heating werent working making it a really cold barn and no hot tub disappointing Also very isolated single track roads to navigate to get anywhere Otherwise a pleasant stay
