Wow! What a property and host, Mel.
The barn was idyllic and peaceful, yet there was enough to do and see close by. We walked with our dogs, right from the barn, up the hill at the rear to see the views of Dovestones and Manchester in the distance. Check out Aldermans (OS map).
The interior photos don't do the space justice really. it's bigger inside than you'd expect but felt cosy all the same. Comfortable bed and seating, with practical and modern kitchen and shower room. Plus the picture frame windows (with magnetic black-out blinds (great idea)) give gorgeous views in each direction.
The lack of tv wasn't an issue as we prepared ourselves with a laptop and were pretty tired anyway after the walks and fresh air.
Mel really has put her unique touch on this property and was on hand and friendly prior and during our weekend.
