Billeaford Barn Reviews

Leander
We were 4 generations of a family and booked both barns for our stay. The two adjourning barns worked perfectly. Arrival and entry simple with plenty of parking available. Both barns were spotlessly clean, spacious and well equipped with all the necessary equipment and amenities for our stay. The gem here is that the East Barn has a table extender allowing us all to eat together. The West Barn has a downstairs double bedroom with access to bathroom which includes a walk in shower which was perfect for 92 year old great grandparents. We all had an amazing stay and would definitely look to book again in the future.
Lesley
Very well equipped and appointed Barns with excellent facilities and well positioned for sightseeing in the local area. Something for all interests and all ages.
Edward
Five star accommodation. Houses sorted us and location was nice. Very quiet and ample parking. Plenty of open space for children and nice court yard gardens in the houses.
Nancy
We stayed at Billeasford Barn this month for 3 nights and it was such a wonderful place to stay. There were 11 of us for an 80th birthday celebration and a mix of ages from 3 to 80. 6 adults and the toddler stayed in one Barn and 4 in the adjoining Barn. Both Barns were so clean and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. Helpful instructions for the appliances and milk and fresh apple juice along with tea and coffee was waiting for us. Adjoining patio areas made if feel like we were all together without being crammed in. I would highly recommend staying here and it was great value for money. A beautiful place to spend such a special birthday
Roberta
This cottage was lovely, a great place for new year for a group of friends, plenty of space and just what we wanted for a getaway. Great that the table could be extended so all of us could eat together, and the space for babies to sleep while adults stayed up was perfect.
Diane
Excellent extended family stay for the Christmas period. Well equipped, clean, dog friendly and the layout of the two homes worked well for us with ages from 14 to 86 and a dog! Great way to make lasting memories. Excellent location not far from excellent beaches or Thorpeness. Would also recommend the farm shop that was close by. Thank you for having us. We had a blast and would recommend without hesitation. Weâ??d love to return to explore the area further.
Reegan
Really lovely place to stay. Would 100% come back
Cynthia
The cottages were comfortable nice sofas allowing social interaction in both. Lovely garden tables/chairs for eating outside. Nice green space for badminton etc and tennis court very useful addition.
