Had a wonderful cosy stay at Estuary Barn. The weather outside was frightful, but this just made Estuary Barn all the more welcoming. It was beautifully warm and draft free. The standard of re-furbishment and accommodation was excellent, with plenty of feeling of space. light and warmth. We cannot recommend it highly enough.

Just returned from a week's break in The Farrier's. The barn is warm, cosy and spotlessly clean. Its well equipped, and unusually has a reasonable TV for a holiday home. The bathroom is bijou, but on the plus side, unlimited hot water and a good shower. The location is perfect, its rural, but has lots to offer within a short... More

Booked to stay in the Estuary barn with family and in-laws. From the first interaction with Emma the whole experience could not have been better. The barn was beautifully warm and had great fittings - this is about quality not the cast-off furniture you so often get. Everything was clean and comfortable with all the equipment you need when you... More

We stayed in Long Reach Barn in September 2012 and sadly had to cut short our holiday. When we booked we specifically asked who lived upstairs as we were concerned about noise levels. Emma (the owner's daughter) assured us it was only her father and that we wouldn't hear anything. Unfortunately there is no sound proofing between the two floors... More

I am sorry you felt Iken Barns was an unsuitable destination for you and that we did not feel your request of a 75% refund was appropriate but were happy to compensate you £100 which you asked to be sent to Many Tears, I have covered individual points with you but would like to respond to your review as follows:...

We took a Silver Wedding Anniversary party of 19 adults and kids (and 7 dogs) to Iken on recommendation from some Viszla owner friends. We were not disappointed. Being avid dog walkers, we find it hard to find good accommodation that is quality and truly dog-friendly. And of course then there is the issue of cost? Well fear not -... More
