    “The Hayloft is the most perfect place to stay.”

    Beautifully presented, well equipped, ideal location and with friendly and extremely helpful owners. We had our 15 month grandson with us and Astrid and Peter kindly provided a high chair, travel cot, a stair-gate and a Brio train set! We had a wonderful family weekend and definitely hope to return.
