“A real gem & suited our group of 14 friends to celebrate a 60th birthday. Loved having space all together & the recommendation of Sunflower Kitchen was a real find for a special 3 course dinner. Lovely walk available from the front door & great local pubs close by. Perfect for what we were looking for.”
“We had a fantastic stay celebrating our dad's 60th birthday together as a family. The property was well-equipped with excellent facilities and had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable weekend. George, Charlie, and Gill were fantastic hosts with excellent communication throughout our stay. We had a small issue with the hot water, but they responded immediately and resolved it straight away, which we really appreciated. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. We'd highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a great place to stay. Thank you for helping make our family celebration so special !”
“We had a family celebration for my husband’s 60 th birthday at Gill’s barns in Long Sutton. It was fantastic. Gill and her son George could not have been more helpful and responsive as hosts and the barns themselves were perfect for us all. Plenty of space, jacuzzi and sauna were great and the kitchen was really well equipped and it was brilliant to have two dishwashers with 14 of us staying. It was amazing just sitting out on the decked area on Sunday afternoon soaking up the Spring sunshine surrounded by beautiful gardens and countryside. We would definitely go back.”
“My stay was for my 60th birthday & it catered for all my family old & young. It was a beautiful place & very peaceful. The swimming pool jacuzzi & spa facilities was great & lovely to have. The local walks & farm shop & the pub up the road was excellent aswell.”
“We stayed at Vedalworks for my mum’s 60th birthday, with a large group of 22 of us. This place was perfect for our group, it was spacious, child friendly with plenty to keep us entertained! Our entire group had a great time, which is rare as it’s hard to please a group of that size! Gill and her son George were very friendly and responsive. George met us on arrival and showed us around. We ran out of gas for the bbq and they brought a cylinder over within 15 mins. Very friendly and approachable. Thank you for having us, we had a great time and will definitely recommend to our family and friends!”
“We had a beautiful stay for a 60th birthday family celebration. The barn was lovely and spacious with everything you could need. There are lots of local walks. We also hired a local private chef one evening which was amazing. George was very helpful and responsive to all our questions. Thank you so much!”
“We have just got home from a lovely weekend celebrating my mum's 60th birthday. The accommodation was the perfect size for 13 adults and we had plenty of space. The space was cosy and welcoming and we had access to all the amenities. Gill was the perfect host, from detailed arrival instructions, to greeting us and also checking in on us to make sure we survived storm Darragh and even offering for us to check out later when the weather calmed down. we would love to return again, hopefully when the weather is a bit calmer.”
“Amazing time for my husbands 60th birthday with all the family. Amazing property that I would highly recommend. A***”
“What a great property. It’s truly huge and very comfortable. Ideal for my mum’s 60th celebrations! George and Gill were very accommodating and communicative. Everyone absolutely loved the house and several of them wanted to return with their own groups! So many people commented on how well equipped the kitchen was, it has EVERYTHING — we did a ton of cooking so it was perfect. George even went out to buy us a pair of scales which had been missing . Thankfully the weather was amazing (considering it is Sept!) so we made good use of the main pool and hot tub, both very clean. We had mainly adult couples but it would be fab for multiple families. They’ve also gone to great efforts to make it Covid safe. Thanks both!”
“We stayed at Gill’s house for my Mum’s 60th birthday. Gill was great before we went, recommending a fantastic catering company and letting us know what they were doing to keep Covid safe. Gill has taken every precaution to make the house safe and everywhere was spotlessly clean when we arrived. The pools were lovely and the hot tub and sauna were a real treat especially when the weather was less nice. Everyone in our party (aged 1-64) enjoyed their stay and I would absolutely recommend Little Upton to anyone. Due to Covid restrictions there are only salt and pepper in the house so just remember to take basics with you. If you do forget (as we did) there is a Tesco nearby to get anything you need and a little village shop. Thanks Gill for a lovely weekend.”
“We stayed at the barn to celebrate my father’s 60th birthday. There were 13 of us in total ranging from 11 months to 60 years and we were all catered for. The weather was glorious which helped but the space was great in the event of rotten weather. However, we benefited from the lovely garden and pool area. Gill was a cracking hostess, fruit cake on arrival, the grand tour and on hand for any questions. Really recommend the Devonshire Arms for a visit too!”
“excellent long weekend stay for our mothers 60th birthday. great amenities and highly recommend.”
