Great Location (to Heathrow)
Unfortunately we arrived to find the place freezing cold as the electric heaters were off. The path to the barn was very slippery, due to ice. The accommodation is quaint but run down and in need of repair, the property itself is neglected. Great pub a few steps from the house.
