White Haywood Barn, Craswall

We had a lovely stay at the barn over New Years Eve. With 8 adults, 2 toddlers, 2 babies and a dog, a venue big enough was a tall order but this certainly fit the bill. There was plenty of room for all of us plus a lovely open plan living space. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook for us all. The hot tub was an added bonus, making a nice respite after some cold winter walks. The barn is quite remote and you would need a car to get around, but if youre looking for peace and quiet, and beautiful surroundings, this is your place. If you are staying in the colder months I would recommend you stock up on logs for the log burner as this made a huge difference in the living area. Thank you Jeremy for a wonderful stay. We had a great time!

We were a party of 9 adults, 1 baby and 2 dogs and the accommodation at White Haywood Barn worked really well for us. The owners provided a cot and high chair on request. There are 5 bedrooms, 5 bathshower rooms and 4 toilets. 3 of the bedrooms are large, spacious rooms with en suites and 2 are much smaller containing single beds and with a shared toilet. The living space is brilliant with two long tables to eat at and plenty of comfy seating. What was really nice was being able to put the baby to bed and sit around together in the evenings just enjoying being together. The kitchen is really well equipped with everything we needed, loads of crockery, glasses and cutlery. They provided dishwasher tabs and washing up liquid and had left some milk in the fridge for our arrival. I arranged a food delivery for the first night which also worked so well for us. We met the housekeeper, Sheila, on our arrival and she was really friendly and helpful, making sure we settled in and I had e mail contact with the owner whilst we were there too. The hot tub got some use and it was great to have some outdoor furniture since the weather was lovely. Although we didnt use them there are a couple of pubs in the nearby villages and those we met who lived nearby were very friendly, we were invited to some local events happening whilst we were there. There are plenty of walks to do in the area so you wouldnt need to go far to find things to do, but actually just enjoying the barn itself was a pleasure. The farm is tucked away from the roads and so quiet. I would wholeheartedly recommend this place and would use it again if I return to the area.

Was lucky enough to have stayed at White Haywood Farm earlier this Spring and couldnt resist going back for a second bite the following month. Perfectly located in an elevated position, the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons can be accessed direct from the property for those who fancy donning walking boots and exercising limbsand a rather splendid, generous family sized hot tub awaits those who return looking for a good hot soak, whilst enjoying unfettered views looking down over the valley through which the River Monnow runs and, in my case, accompanied by a large glass of something. Accessed via a long private drive and newly renovated with all the mod cons one would expect, the provision of Wi Fi, with excellent signal, is there for those that need to remain in touch with distant offices or are working from home. Can whole heartedly recommend the property to anyone who is after some genuine P & Q.

The Barn is beautiful spacious, recently renovated to a high standard in the most beautiful landscape. We loved the walking, especially up to Hay Bluff and cycled round the Olchon Valley very few cars was great. We liked learning about English history in Hereford and also visiting Hay on Wye. The local village pub served fantastic food Bulls Head. My daughter had space to breathe. Loved the place, best Valentines Day ever
