Warrens is lovely. The photos do not do the place justice!We loved the enormous living space and fully equipped kitchen. Never before have I cooked a roast dinner whilst on holiday.The weather was rubbish for our stay but we still made good use of the hot tub. All of the games and jigsaws were definitely appreciated.Having a dog washing station was great, definitely needed for our mud monster golden retriever!

Wonderful accommodation. Loved the seating/reading area on the landing. Perfect location for the swimming pool/gym spa. My little pug loved the spacious living area and enclosed garden. Bifold doors were broken so couldnt use them but not a problem for us as the weather was wet and windy so didnt need them. 3 good size bedrooms and added bonus of washing machine and tumble drier

Could do with an upgrade in the garden of sun loungers and a hot tub and BBQ was missing this time ?

Date of stay: 5th July 2025

Gwari Barn was amazing. Inverted living! Bedrooms down stairs, living area up. Two bedrooms were large with exceptionally comfortable super king beds, each with their own ensuite. Upstairs was very spacious and looked great. Decent kitchen area and dining table one side, lounge area on the other. Off the kitchen was a really handy utility room with a separate sink, washing machine and large drinks chiller, plus another toilet cubicle. The outdoor area was spot on. Decked area with dining and lounging sets then a paved area with a hot tub and a couple of small trees. There is also a really good Kamodo Bono BBQ.Couple of drawbacks for us personally were the dog struggled with the stairs as quite slippy for her and just the ventilation. Although upstairs had two sliding doors (one being triple paned, which really opened up the area) and each bedroom also had sliding doors, there wuere no separate openers. This meant if it's warm, unless you want to leave the sliding doors open, there's no air circulation. They were able to find us a fan which really helped at night.We all said that it wasn't like being on holiday. Felt more like a home and none of us wanted to leave. We'd of happily stayed there for much longer.Thank you Whalesborough for a lovely holiday.
