Stunning barn annexe

We needed a bolt hole for visiting elderly relatives nearby, and what a find this was! Beautifully designed open plan main room, with lounge area, well equipped kitchen and small dining table. Doors off led to the bathroom with good sized shower, and the main bedroom with a comfortable double bed. There’s also an upstairs bedroom, but as we’re just 2, we didn’t use it. They even left us a lovely homemade cake - what a nice personal touch. Unlike a hotel stay we had to set the dishwasher going & strip the beds, but this didn’t take long!
