Spent the weekend in Tilwinda's converted barn. Weather outside cold but inside the barn was warm, cosy and comfortable. Warmly welcomed by our hosts, the fire was blazing well and there were plenty of breakfast provisions.

I would suggest if you want your privacy, this place is not for you. Expect to see the hosts a couple of times throughout your stay and expect to have them basically having... More
