Beautifully done and loved the views
We love it there and appreciate its rural location but the TV reception and the picture Was dire and we were not able to watch any films or catch up TV. The model is really old it could do with an update for such a high end accommodation We had teenagers with us so it was an important part of our holiday.
Beautiful setting and location, the cottage was really comfortable, clean, well equipped and well kept. Really enjoyed our stay
Stunning barn in a beautiful, rural location. The views from the barn were wonderful and are stay was incredibly peaceful. The barn was finished to an exceptional standard. We had an issue one day when gardeners turned up with machinery and commenced work at the property without us being notified in advance by the housekeeper. This is a dog friendly property so it’s essential you communicate with the paying guest so your dog can be secured in the barn if gardeners are attending. Calls and a message sent to the housekeeper went ignored. I informed Rural Retreats open my return but did not feel confident that this issue would be addressed for the safety of future guests.
Thank you for your feedback. We are extremely sorry that your calls and message were ignored. Unfortunately the housekeeper /manager was unwell and you were inadvertently given an incorrect property contact. This has now been addressed and we have also confirmed that guests are always contacted if gardeners wish to visit the property.
Lovely panoramic view from the cottage. Beautiful rural location yet is only a short drive to Ludlow and Perfect Ludlow Food Centre. Very spacious modern barn conversation . We family of 6 were very comfortable. The barn was very spacious and we love the opened plan of sitting area dining and kitchen are all in one room. very comfortable stay.
Excellent accommodation in a beautiful setting. Lots of things to see, do and eat in the area.
Small things prevented what should have been a five star plus (!) rating. 1) The WiFi code - we had to get this off the router. 2) Dustbins and the bagging instructions were good but the kitchen bin had four receptacles which made it less than intuitive. Oh dear (!) 3) The tall wine glasses didn’t fit the dishwasher. 4) Kitchen unit access handles weren’t that convenient e.g. when opening the fridge. This could be a nuisance for those with manual dexterity problems ( e.g. seniors) But these are all silly minor things......we had a great time in a superb location in an inspiring building. Thanks.
Wonderful, comfortable, well equipped barn in a stunning location. Lovely welcome hamper and immaculately clean accommodation. We had a wonderful few days.
Amazing barn in stunning countryside - just the getaway we needed. Barn had everything for an enjoyable stay and was beautifully furnished. We will definitely revisit! Thank you Rural Retreats.
Beautiful and relaxing place perfect for a getaway and the dog loves the space around the property.
Overall high standards and we would recommend the property to friends. However the steps up and down into the living room were easy to miss. There could be a rail between the hall and the living room. The central heating controls bore no resemblance to the ones in the instructions and the wifi code was not the one given but we managed to find it on the back of the modem. Our group had 4 members over 80 and grab handles would have been helpful in the shower.
The Wassell Barn is tastefully converted to provide excellent accommodation, but it is the spectacular setting and consequent views that impress most!
Stunning location. Comfortable, spacious and beautifully designed interiors. Very relaxing holiday
Beautiful property, fantastic scenery plenty of walks and Ludlow a pretty town
This is a luxurious property and absolutely everything is of the highest standard.
Loved every minute. Wonderful location. Very well equipped. Comfortable and private. The best.
Just spent Christmas at Wassell Barn with my family and I have to say this is the best equipped house that we have ever rented. Cooking Christmas dinner was a breeze in this beautifully stylish barn. The location is so peaceful and beautiful, nothing to hear other than the birds and watching the ever changing landscape. Beds are super comfy with gorgeous crisp white linen and showers hot and spacious. Nothing not to like, everything to love so we will be back.
Fantastic location and beautiful barn. Looking forward to going back soon.
Absolutely perfect. We will return,
Wassell Barn is in a wonderful private place with amazing views. It is modern and spacious and was perfect for a two couple reunion. Even though it feels as though you are very remote you are close to all the delights that the area has to offer. We would happily return for another holiday at Wassell Barn.
