This is a beautiful barn conversion in a gorgeous location in deepest countryside. All details of comfort and equipment are thoughtfully provided to a high standard, including very helpful local walks and information. The owners nearby are helpful and discreet. We found the narrowness of the surrounding lanes daunting at first.

We just returned from a wonderful two-week stay at Little Midge Barn. A beautiful and respectfully converted barn with a cozy, warm interior. The cottage is situated in a beautiful, peaceful setting amidst unspoiled nature, overlooking a lovely valley. Adjacent to the garden, cows graze, pheasants dart from the bushes, and birds twitter in the treeRead mores. Wonderful! The cottage lacks nothing, and the friendly owners have truly thought of everything to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Perfect! Hide
