Location - as already commented by many, a min walk to Woods restaurant and walking distance to picnic grounds/George Tindale/Alfred Nichols/Marybrooke Manor /Poets Lane and a 3min drive to local shops, eg Kallista Deli, Mad Raven Pizza, general store.
The Barn is located in a quiet street, and whilst close to the main house, privacy is ensured as Dianne and Brahm are totally non intrusive. We like being able to look out of the windows to greenery.
The windows do not look onto the house except for one looking onto back of main house but that was not an issue at all as window partly frosted with blinds.
Barn - lovely decor and well appointed in terms of heating/cooling/lighting so extremely comfortable. The bed is very comfortable with great bedlinen (I even checked to see if it was a mattress topper I could replicate at home) but may be soft for some. Complimentary sherry was available which is great for the cold weather.
A reviewer suggested possible issues for people suffering from allergies with dried flower arrangements (very pretty though). There is no wardrobe but some coat hangers are available. Good selection of books/dvds and some mags.
Hosts - Dianne and Brahm are absolutely gorgeous and helpful. We felt at ease asking for help.
Overall, fantastic location, beautiful barn and very cosy. Would def recommend!
