Pros: Beautiful views, great hospitality from hosts, always great help! Would definitely recommend if you like camping but with a bit more home comfort!

Cons: Would’ve been an added bonus to have some sort of kitchen facility whether a stove or a bbq style fire outside but other than that nothing to fault.

Relaxing just what me my husband and dog needed.

Cons: N/A

Great place to stay, beautiful scenery, host great; just pack well.

Pros: Location is perfect, facilities good. Host was great!

Cons: Lights had no batteries, Carbon monoxide alarm didn’t have batteries, given the fire they should be checked.

Pros: The place was secluded, view was amazing. The hot tub was brilliant.

Cons: The lighting there was poor...more a glorified torch.

Pros: We liked that it was different to what we would normally go for very adventurous and the farmer was lovely

Cons: The only negative we had was the fire went out at 2.30 in morning and had nothing else to light it back up so it was very cold and during our hour in the hottub we tried to light the fire back up but all the logs were wet and we had terrible trouble doing it so we didn't get as much out of the hottub that we could of.

We had such a lovely time and David was a very kind soul and an amazing host he made us feel extremely welcome and at ho

Pros: very comfy and cosy and the hot tub was amazing! and everything is set up so you can have an easy stay x

Cons: not a single thing any bits of the property that were messed up were caused by irresponsible visitors and it’s a shame people would cause harm to such a beautiful thing

Overall we really enjoyed our trip to the haystack! The small minor things noted are more just things to note rather tha

Pros: We really enjoyed our time away at the haystack and will be returning. The bed is super comfy! The area is very private so it really feels like you are just away in your own little world. The big battery back for lamps and phone charging was a great feature, as well as the bio-ethanol fire to get the cabin all warm and cosy. It was lovely getting out of the hot and being able to enter a warm and cosy atmosphere.

Cons: The only two minor things about the property that we have are the road to the property, and the hot tub temperature. The road to the property is a proper farm track, we drive a very small car and although we were made aware of the farm track I don’t think it was stressed to us how steep and off-road it essentially was. The car made it to and from the property okay, however better foresight of this we’d have properly used a different car. The second minor thing was the hot tub temperature. We’d asked for the hot tub to be lit prior to our arrival, unfortunately it had not so the hot tub was extremely cold when we got there. David was great at coming back to help us with this though and got the fire up and going straight away. The hot tub heated up well so this was not a problem. The only small issue is that we were only able to spend about an hour and a half in the hot tub before it got too hot for us. Although this was likely user error with keeping the fire going, it was ever so slightly disappointing that we couldn’t spend longer in there. It did however mean that the hot tub was still lovely and warm in the morning so we were able to use it again before heading off.
