"A lovely barn conversion in a peaceful setting."
A very comfortable bed, slept well every night. Sofa could perhaps be more comfortable but not a big problem. We could find everything we needed except a pint glass! We found it to be in an ideal position for exploring the area, with most places of interest within about an hours drive. We would definitely recommend this property.
First of all thank you for your kind feedback above and in our visitor's book - we are glad you had an enjoyable stay and we hope to see you back at The Barn one of these days.
Helpful suggestions are always welcome, so we have already added a couple of pint glasses and a beer tankard to the kitchen inventory. Point noted about the OKA sofa, so at the very least we will review the cushion count. We also appreciate your positive recommendation for future guests.

"The most delightful place."
No traffic or street lights, the birds dawn chorus, every needed piece of kitchen equipment supplied and the very important peace and quiet.
Plenty of information regarding The Barn and food pubs in the manual.
The first impression when entering is very tidy, comfortable and welcoming.
The gardens are private and very well attended to.
A return should be a promise.

"We had a lovely stay at The Barn - just what we wanted, a stay away from busy work to rest and relax."
A great welcome from Gail and the property was very clean, tidy and comfortable. We enjoyed following the route for your favourite walk that we found in your guest information folder. We also enjoyed your baked treat of banana cake and we did take advantage of your kind offer to pop the extra Frog Pond Farm apple juice in our bag to enjoy at back at home; that is delicious! Highly recommended, we really enjoyed it.

"We loved our stay at the Barn."
A very comfortable and peaceful spot with plenty of visits close by including country walks direct from the barn. The pubs we ate at, all within 15 minutes, were excellent and Tisbury has most things needed shopping wise. The station at Tisbury has a good rail service east to Salisbury (10 mins) and other destinations west. The hosts were very helpful. The bath without shower and a few low ceilings need noting, but that understood, it's brilliant.

"Very nice Barn in lovely quite setting in large grounds ideally situated for exploring the area ,only a few small negatives living area small ,bathroom has toilet in a position were it is difficult to stand in front due to sloping ceiling and apple tv is not very user friendly and kept losing signal."
We are sorry that you found the bathroom facilities were not ideal, and will continue to draw people's attention to this in the description of the property - although it's difficult to change things significantly due to the design of the building. We are also sorry that you had issues with the Apple TV signal - this was the first problem anyone has encountered as far we are aware - but we will continue to keep a close eye on this. Thank you anyway, for your kind comments which are appreciated.

"The photos suggest it is slightly larger than it actually it, but it is more than adequate for two."
The bed, which is often a let down in rentals, is extremely comfortable. The barn is fitted out with everything you need and the garden is lovely. The owners are really friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. I cannot praise this accommodation enough and will definitely be recommending this to family and friends. Look forward to a return visit. Thank you Gail and Mark.

The conversion has been imaginatively carried out, the barn has been comfortably and tastefully furnished, and the maintenance and cleanliness are scrupulous.

Very clean Thank you Gail and Mark for the cake, coffee . sugar and the flowers on the table. Could not have asked for anymore. The barn is also quiet private and secluded even though it’s on the same grounds with the owner la you still have your privacy. The use of key safe made it easier for us to check in and check out without having to wait for Gail and Mark. There is also a few shops and pubs in Tisbury .
