Me and my family stayed here over the New Years Eve period and we couldn't have asked for anymore! The Barn is huge and so cosy with lots of areas to relax, a huge table to sit round, lots of bedrooms, and all appliances you would need are already there for you, an all round great place to stay, we didn't need to leave once! We will definitely be returning!

From the moment we arrived and even before the house manager was extremely helpful and did everything that they could to help us. She replied to any pre arrival contact with helpful answers and helped us to prepare for our arrival. Once there we quickly realised the house had absolutely everything you would need for our stay and there was a lot of space considering we had 26 people. We managed to even get 26 round the big main dining area table (with a squeeze). There were adequate bathrooms and the place was very tidy and clean. We were able to get Indian delivered while there and paid for a chef to come in. There were two large fridges, one smaller fridge and a tall freezer so we’re easily able to store everything. There were two dishwashers and the tablets were already there, along with oven gloves, washing up liquid etc. thank you for an amazing stay! We couldn’t have asked for a better house.

We had a group stay for thanksgiving in November 2022. A lovely house that comfortably slept out group of 18. The house is well stoked, great big table which fit everybody and a lovely location and view from the house. One complaint from the group was the pet fee, at £30 per pet per week whether you stay 3 days or 7 days seemed a little steep, but that is the only complaint from an otherwise lovely weekend.

We celebrated an 80th birthday at the property and it was the perfect place for our family. Communication with the property manager Mandy was excellent and they were flexible where possible. The property itself is kitted out for large groups so cleverly - from the layout, to the crockery and glasses and even 26 pool towels, they had thought of everything. We were thoroughly impressed with the property overall and would highly recommend it for big families of all ages.

Amazing Stay for a hen party
Amazing Stay for a hen party
Where do I start…..Great Higham Barn is more than we could have asked for. We arrived as a hen party of 23 people believing we may not have enough room for us all BUT the barn is outstanding, an amazing use of space and you get a real country feel. The hot tub was brilliant too and although we didn’t use the pool as wasn’t open we could see it would be a fantastic edition to a summer rental. The staff at Bloom stays were really helpful when I needed questions answered beforehand and we even had a recommended chef company (The Kent Kitchen) arrive and cook a 3 course meal for us all on the Saturday, they also were outstanding. So so happy with all aspects of the stay. Thank you so much

Beautiful Barn

We had a lovely weekend in this beautiful barn. It is very well equipped in the kitchen with plenty of everything including glasses and having two dishwashers was a real bonus. The huge table was amazing and 20 of us fitted round it easily, great space for socialising. The hot tub was well enjoyed by all. All in all great accommodation for a big group and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you.
