A lovely cottage in an idyllic setting. The view over the pond was a delight. We all enjoyed watching the ducks and dragonflies. The lounge/diner/kitchen was a great space to be able to do our own thing but stay connected to our friends. The beds were very comfy.

February 2024 we were looking for a weekend away for my girlfriends birthday, 9 of us going (inc 2 children and baby). Roe Deer Barn looked really nice, ticked all our boxes and as it's dog friendly we brought him along too. Plenty of communication from the website we booked it through before we arrived and also the owners Tim and Rachel who were kRead moreind enough to allow us to check in 2hrs early. As I didn't know the area Rachel and Tim were able to help me in getting some bits sorted for Birthday celebrations, I needed helium balloons and a nice place to eat, The Hunworth Bell was recommended and it was just lovely. When we arrived the house was spotless and nice & warm. On the kitchen worktop was a basket with some nibbles, tea, coffee and sugar. Next to that to our suprise was a cake tin with a beautiful freshly baked Victoria sponge inside. In the fridge was a bottle of milk and also a bottle of bubbles. All of that was a lovely suprise, the difficulty now, deciding whether to have tea & cake or bubbles after our drive. Lol. We explored the barn and we literally had everything we needed, slippers were even provided which was another nice touch. We decided to stay in the annex bedroom as we have a new born that still gets up during the night for a feed and likes to let people know he's awake too. Tea and coffee making facilities were also provided in the annex. There is underfloor heating throughout which is so nice underfoot, also provided was wood for the wood burner. Tim and Rachel popped by after we arrived to make sure we were ok and had everything we needed. There was plenty of room to cook for 9 people, we had Fajitas Friday night and the hot plate was great for keeping the food warm. The games room is really good and well equipped to keep kids entertained if the weather isn't great. There are also board games, cards and plenty of DVDs if you fancy watching a film in fromt of the fire. We had a day out to the Roarr Dinosaur Park in Lenwade which was good. For us there were only 2 things we felt could be improved, 1) very little, if any, wifi signal in the annex bedroom. 2) a baby / travel cot is not provided. That said it wasnt the end of the world and do not let those 2 things put you off going, we all had such an amazing time and wouldn't hesitate to return to Roe Deer Barn. Thank you Tim and Rachel for a lovely stay. Hide

We had a lovely time here with all the family. Its a great property for families as all bedrooms are equally as good and private as each other. The Barn was spacious and beautifully decorated. The equipment in the kitchen was fantastic, everything you could think of and the WIFI very reliable. It was nice and warm and cosy for a winters break. Read moreWe loved the finishing touches such as slippers and wine etc on arrival and the cake was one of the best we had tasted, that was the first to go. Having the annex for us was just perfect with a new born baby . The new little family could have their own space without worrying about waking anyone else up. The games room and outdoor facilities would be great in the summer and spring. We had a issue with the fridge but the owners came out immediately to sort, they were really nice and available for anything you needed. We would definitely return and have already recommend to others. Hide

Roe Deer Barn is a wonderful place for families to get together. The layout has been thought through meaning whilst the family are all together they can still be in separate areas doing their own thing. Our stay was absolutely wonderful with lots of space for everyone.
