We had a wonderful time at Walnut Tree Barn. The barn itself was just superb. Everything had been thought of. The weather wasn’t kind but we managed some walks and made use of the huge hot tub. Tonya and Alan were very helpful - always there if you needed anything. We would all 100% recommend a trip here.
Couldn’t recommend staying at the barn more
Would love to come back in the summer
Such a lovely house and the owners were so accommodating
