    “The three of us had a great week in Wheelwright's Barn.”

    Finding it was a little tricky as the 'orange' door is, in fact, dark green but the owners were very helpful. Although the weather was a bit wet, we got out for long walks every day and the dogs had a brilliant time (though tearing about on pebbly beaches took its toll on one of them). The Barn was cosy and well-equipped, having everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. The 'library' on the landing had a fabulous selection of books as well as jigsaws.
