Tallet Barn West Reviews

Oliver
Our countryside getaway was just what we hoped for. The Tallet Barn West was cosy, but be ready for the bumpy, narrow lane when you arrive-that's a bit of a trek off the main road. We really enjoyed relaxing in the hot tub, soaking in the stunning views. The area's full of footpaths, perfect for exploring the landscape. The little football pitch was great for the kids, but indoor courts need booking a day ahead. Overall, a lovely stay with plenty to do!
Sarah
We had a lovely time! The peaceful location was perfect for unwinding, though it's a bit of a drive to get to shops. The tennis courts were a real bonus, especially for the kids. Great for a quiet family break with plenty of space to roam and relax. Thanks for having us!
Emma
The place was really charmingand we loved waking up to those amazing views. Clean and comfy too!
James
We stayed here for a short mid-week getaway and honestly, it was lovely. The place was spotless and had all we needed for a comfortable stay. The log stove was perfect for the chilly November eveningsand the hot tub was a real treat. We also appreciated the thoughtful touches like bread, milk, butter, cakeand biscuits on arrival after our drive from Cornwall. The area is so peaceful too. Thanks, Simon and Lisa!
Alex
We loved the cosy vibe of the place, with comfy furnishings and a real log fire. The hot tub was a bonusand having indoor tennis and badminton courts was great-just note they're only open on weekdays. The views over the hillside are stunning and perfect for unwinding. Nice spot!
