In 1973 the picture Wicker man was released. In 1997 it was broadcast on Channel 4 and I had the pleasure of watching the cult classic horror. Before Sergent Howie discovers what is going on in the sleepy village it seems perfect does it not? Well for those of us not from England have no doubt ever since, have had this idea of the English country side with "barns" everywhere adventurous places where all kinds of fun and games occur, innocent during the day and not so much at night!!
For those of you who were intrigued ever since watching the Wicker man or Straw Dogs or whichever 70's feature exploring the British countryside you might want to stay at "The Barn". I merely speculate of course, you might have a totally different agenda when choosing this place, and that is ok!!
Here is the scenario; you are landing in Liverpool, a popular and cheap choice of airport for a lot of European out and inbound flights. You want to experience the buzz of the city centre but at the same time get a taste of the country. How about the Barn I say. Bring a few old classic horror movies to watch on your laptop in bed before some shut eye, guaranteed to go down a treat!! Or perhaps that's just me!! Do watch out for creaking doors and strange noises from outside!!
I'm kidding!!!!!!!!
This an absolute homely gem of a place to stay especially for those with littlens. The service is impeccable and a fresh recently refurbished interior is a delight. What's more, no room for complaints on the price front with single rooms coming in at a poultry £40 a night. (Yes I do love that word and it does feature in all my reviews...poultry..mmm perhaps its because I love chickens..hmm ) Do be careful when you suggest it to the other half though. "Fancy a night in the barn love" might not go down as well as you think!!! Or maybe it will who knows. Enjoy having a right old "Barn"ey if the latter is the case. What ever you do, don't forget to...Chamon it!! Who's bad?? Ma bad!! read more
