We have stayed at Blakes Barn a number of times now. It is very spacious and comfortable. The farm is perfect for our working dogs, with lots of space for exercise. Mike and Heather are very friendly and helpful and always welcoming. We look forward to our next visit. ...

The positives: the property is large and has an enclosed outdoor space with figs and grape vines. The farm has a Bramley apple orchard to pick from. The shower is nice and powerful. The downstairs bedroom and upstairs bedroom's linens are clean and crisp. There was a washer. Biscuits left (but I don't eat them). The negatives. The table and chairs outside on the patio were thick with dust and dirt. The main patio doors' runners were rusted and you had trouble opening them, but there was another set through the bedroom. The carpet behind the headboard of the bed upstairs was black whether from mould or damp. The floorboards were lifting near the patio doors which is a H & S hazard. Only one vileda cloth provided so no floor cloth ( luckily had brought own) or long handled brush so had to always use vacuum. ( which was contradictory to the eco notice posted).

Very quiet rural location! Nearest small town of Yarmouth 5 mins by car.

Excellent location,very clean and tidy accommodation, the terrace was brilliant had breakfast and evening meals outside on the terrace.was also good that the owners where on hand if needed anything.

Even though property is in a village, the ease of access to anywhere on the island is excellent. The hosts were gracious, professional and very helpful. The property is beautifully presented and very clean with great attention to detail with practical items provided eg washing tablets. We didn't need to purchase anything except food. The area around the village is teaming with fantastic walks and stunning views. Highly recommend. ...
