Frankie
The Dairy is delightful converted barn with vaulted ceilings and beautiful furnishings located in the gardens of our family home in Scratby by the seaside. Guests share our driveway and picturesque front gardens although their is a large pond here so small children absolutely must be supervised. You're more than likely to find the Bartlett Bandits (our three children) out here on their bikes or playing football. Once round the back of Gables farmhouse access to the pond is restricted through two sets of gates (panic not small dog owners and parents of children. The Dairy courtyard is enclosed within garden walls for your own space to relax and spend time together. The barns have high vaulted ceilings and are decorated in a homely fashion. The first bedroom has a kingsized bed in and its own ensuite bathroom and shower. The Second bedroom has two singles beds which can be pushed together to form a superking bed if needed (prior notice must be given for this). There is also an ensuite here with a shower. If you let us know your plans and who is coming we can add childrens toys, highchairs, changing mats etc to the barn?
Hi my name is Frankie I live at Gables Farmhouse alongside my partner and three children (here on affectionately referred to as The Bartlett Bandits). We moved here in the summer of 2019 with our intention of having the Dairy barn as a holiday let as we absolutely love entertaining. We are an outdoorsy family who are always happy and cheerful. We're very flexible hosts and will be on hand as much or as little as you like. Hopefully I will meet the level of interaction you require however if this is too much or not enough do let me know. Those travelling from far away - we're happy to advise you of great days out / places to eat / activities. So basically we're very friendly and very flexible which hopefully you should find accommodating and helpful. Please get in touch with any questions.
