The Barn & The Log Cabin – Sleeps 12 | 2 Hot Tubs, Games & Countryside Retreat

Welcome to The Barn & The Log Cabin, two beautifully designed countryside properties combining rustic character with modern comfort. Sleeping up to 12 guests across 6 sleeping zones, this unique combination is ideal for families, friends and multi-generational groups looking for plenty of space to gather, relax and enjoy time together.
