    We had another lovely stay at Ox Lodge Barn. The surroundings are so quiet and peaceful, which makes for a great break away from hustle and bustle and having a dog with you means you can enjoy rambles. The Barn is very comfortable and cosy and everything one needs, two large bedrooms with excellent en-suite bathrooms, and the sofa's and beds are extremely comfortable. The owners are a delight, around if you'd like a chat or ask for anything, but never intrusive. We'll be back again!

    We had a wonderful time at Ox Lodge Barn, so peaceful and quiet. The cottage was lovely, it has everything you need, it was very clean, the beds were very comfy and the sheets were smelling divine! We were really impressed! We really loved the rustic look of the cottage and the owners were very kind and helpful with everything we needed. It was well worth it and we will definitely go back soon!

    We thought it was wonderful - such a comfortable place to stay in the most beautiful setting. Loads to go and see and do and close to the seaside too. We absolutely loved the farmyard setting and being able to walk the dog out from the front door. Would definitely go back again. You have to drive to the local shop for food but it was a small price to pay for the location.

    Having rented cottages for the past 20 years, we sadly have to be very candid with this review on Ox Cottage We feel that that this Cottage to be very tired, the ambiance was like an unkept back yard, not what we would call a holiday home. The brochure showed rolling fields, they were there but the only view from the Cottage was a desolate yard with a rusty bath and chairs and an old wooden shed.The flower troughs appeared to have been neglected or an after thought. The promise of a welcome pack was not kept, as was the first basket of logs. The heating seemed to have no occupier control.To say we were disappointed is an understatement, it spoilt our holiday, waste of money. Most people only get one holiday a year and it is so upsetting to feel let down like this.

    Response on behalf of the Owner; We were sorry to read John's review and can only offer our apologies. After a dry summer the yard does look a little sorry and we had not yet got around to filling up the wood basket. These two points have now been sorted. The heating is also fine. Perhaps it had not been used for some time. Most of all we are so sorry that the bathroom door mechanism broke and your friend was locked in. It must have been a frightening experience. This has also been fixed. We wonder why you did not make contact during your stay. We are mindful that this is the worst and first very negative review and we take any criticism very seriously. Our sincere apologies once again.
