Amazing Stay 5/5

Amazing stay at the barn. The decor is absolutely stunning! It is very cosy, has everything you need. They even put up Christmas decorations which was a lovely touch. We brought our dog and the garden was perfect as it was enclosed so perfect when we were chilling in the hot tub. It is nearby to Elam Valley and about 40 minute drive to Hafern Forest. They were very responsive when the internet when down and had it repaired very quickly. We will definitely be back!

Perfect weekend 5/5

We loved every single minute we spent at Eleri's Barn as a family. It was perfect to relax and spend time all together. The barn itself is absolutely beautiful and really well equipped with stunning surroundings. We would just suggest putting a guest book available in the barn so we could leave a nice review written by ourselves. Thank you for our treats and for the wonderful weekend we had at your place.
