We had a fantastic stay at Wells Park Barn. Paul was a great host and provided all the information needed for the stay and responded quickly to any questions. The barn was lovely and provided plenty of room for two families. Very comfortable and in a stunning location.

Tucked away on the edge of the estuary with the high tide bringing the river right up to the back french doors. Very cosy, clean and comfortable with everything we needed including wood for the fire. We had a wonderful stay in this particularly special location.
