A lovely spacious and well equipped barn conversion. Situated at the end of a long lane away from traffic and passers by . Host was friendly and communication was good . Property was a little cool for us in December and although temperature was set to 22 it only ever reached 19 degrees. Overall cleanliness was good but could do with some attention to cobwebs on walls and ceilings ##### Helene Haythorne ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy M. 27 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Dreamy escape to the farm Our stay with Jane and her brother was absolutely marvelous. They were so welcoming, bringing extra firewood when it was needed, making multiple homemade treats and answering questions and giving recommendations about the local area. Saffron Waldon was a lovely local town with a large Tesco to supply all our cooking needs, and the barn had everything we needed to feel at home. We are already trying to figure out when we can return. ##### Amy M.
