“We very much enjoyed staying at Jackdaws Roost.”
Check in time was 3pm but we where allowed to check in much earlier. When arriving at the barn we were greeted with doggy essentials, milk , bread , fresh eggs and apple juice which was totally unexpected. We couldn't get the heating to come on straight away so we called for help and Hayley turned up within minutes to sort it out! We thought long and hard what to write about on this review and we think that the description on the land around the barn should be in more detail. We felt very uneasy at night due to the old, abandoned vehicles and caravans around the land, and due to little lighting during the night time - maybe just that we're not used to it, but definitely made us feel a little unsettled, including the dog. The barn itself is decorated to such a high standard and was immaculately clean. Overall, very good stay... just for future, others to be aware that the land is very large and vast, so to be prepared if sleeping somewhere like this is not what you're used to.
We are very happy you enjoyed your stay with us at Jackdaw's Roost and you enjoyed your welcome pack too. We are sorry that you had difficulties in figuring out the heating instructions but I was more than happy to get it all sorted out for you. We are also sorry you felt uneasy at night. The listing states that the property is set within 14 acres. The cars and tractors are vintage and are positioned in a way to add charm and interest to the property. The 1930's caravan by the pond is being converted to a summer/bird watching space for future guests to use. There is sufficient lighting from the car park to Jackdaw's Roost but due to being in the countryside with no street lighting I can appreciate it is dark outside. A torch is provided within the property should you need it. We are very pleased you appreciated the interior and the cleanliness of the property and we wish you all the best. Property Owner
