Another wonderful stay at Weeke Barton. Such a beautiful place, with our host Jo being so kind and considerate. Afternoon tea by the log burner looking out over the delightful garden and distant hills was a real highlight. We highly recommend staying here.

A really special place to stay. Such a treat with lots of lovely touches - super-comfy bed, plentiful amounts of lovely products, delicious breakfasts & roaring fires. Kota - on its own in the garden - was just the private place we were hoping for, like a beautiful, stylish hobbit-house with its own comfy chairs & wood-burner. Beautiful walks, stunning area. Jo & Sam were the perfect hosts - so quick to respond to any messages by text yet left you to enjoy their beautiful property. Highly recommended!
