Green Grove Barn Reviews

Philomena
Beautiful, good base for days out.
Many thanks to the owners for a wonderful week at Green Grove Barn. Everything was absolutely fantastic the view over the fields, the amenities at this beautiful cottage and the great Welsh beaches and tourist attractions around the area. We very much appreciated the comfortable beds and seating in the lounge, the modern elegant bathrooms and the convenience of the appliances provided such as the washing machine, separate drier and freezer. The bifold doors opening onto the Juliet balcony gave the living space an airy feel and really added to our relaxation. Thanks to the owners for being such kind hosts, leaving us to our own devices completely but there with a warm smile if we needed them. A five star holiday home and we really hope to go back again.
This is the best holiday cottage we have ever stayed in, and we have stayed in a lot over the years. Peter and Kathy were excellent hosts and made sure we were comfortable. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and the grounds very attractive. We enjoyed sitting on the sofa looking out at the garden area with the lake and flowers. We would highly recommend this property.
The only things that I can think were missing were coat hooks in the entrance hallutility room. Otherwise, the property was amazing. Very quiet and comfortable, with very welcoming hosts.
Great hosts so friendly and welcoming and realy helpfull ,extremely clean and tidy ideal base for exploreing,only one slight fault beds maybe a bit low but certainly not a problem. Would go back in the future.
Nice quiet location excellent accomodation Peter and Kathy great hosts. Hope to return again one day.
Elizabeth
Fabulous stay. The setting for this property is beautiful, but central enough for some great exploration. Our hosts were so welcoming, and we would definitely recommend.
We very much enjoyed our stay in this comfortable and well equipped cottage. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Thank you.

Eirian
Gorgeous little find in a beautiful setting with very friendly hosts wish we couldve spent a little more time there ! !
Hosts very welcoming and friendly. Very peaceful, well equipped property in a beautiful setting. We greatly enjoyed our stay.
The photos dont do this place justice. Beautifully refurbished barn. Lovely peaceful area and exceptionally friendly hosts. My son loved the tree swing and walking around the pond. The barn had many things that you wouldnt usually get in a holiday accommodation such as condiments etc. Left feeling like wed had a proper holiday. Thanks!
Stuard
We had a lovely four night stay in the beautiful barn. It was comfortable and clean. Cath and Pete made us feel very welcome, we had everything we needed and the scenery was fabulous very relaxing place to have a break. We would definitely recommend a visit.
Lauretta
We found Green Grove Barn a perfect place to stay. It had everything we needed and being out in the country it is so quiet and peaceful. The 'WOW' factor of the house is the wonderful view from the lounge and its balcony of the lake, fields and hills. When we visited, the Barn had not been open long and all the white goods were brand new and sparkling clean. The rooms are spacious and are beautifully decorated with plenty of storage space. The kitchen has everything you could ever need. Kathy and Peter were so friendly and welcoming and the information file they provided was excellent with not only details of the house but also suggestions of places to visit and local walks. We couldn't have wished for better accommodation.
Lesley
We loved our stay in Green Grove Barn. The setting is beautiful with views down to the pond and up into the hills where cattle and sheep graze. In the evening light the cows were silhouetted against the sky between the trees and hedges .Wonderful. Cathy and Peter were charming hosts. We've never been in a property where so much was provided , or the kitchen so generously stocked with essentials. There is WI FI not mentioned in the original details and important to our family. We were sad to leave and have come away with very happy memories.
Richard
I loved our stay at Green Grove Barn . The photos dont quite capture the specialness of this place . A stunning outlook to wake up to each morning and our hosts were so friendly and helpful . The welcome breakfast bits , biscuits and household essentials were much appreciated. A beautiful property thats been refurbished sustainably and every care taken to provide guests with all they require for a comfortable stay . We will be back !
