We’re just back from our second sleeps12 stay and had another perfect break. Everything was so easy from the booking process right through to accessing the property which was just incredible. I would thoroughly recommend booking through sleeps12, everyone we dealt with was super-efficient and the whole process was simple.

Whimbrels barton is really well set out and equipped with everything you need for a family break

5 Star Property. Great location and wonderful hot tub 😃 and fun games room. Fun for the whole family.

Booking and communication were good with Sleeps 12. The house met all our requirements, spacious, clean and well equipped. All the beds were comfortable and the bathrooms offered endless hot water.
The huge dining table accommodated us all, offering lovely views of the garden and pond.
The pool was the highlight for the children who spent many hours there.
Lots to see and do in the area with local pubs offering good food.
We had a great week in this beautiful house and would not hesitate in recommending it.

My booking via Sleeps12 was easy and very well managed. The property was excellent and offered all the amenities we required for a great family reunion.

Excellent pre-stay information, including details of road closures in the area, and availability of children's equipment at the house. Quick response to emails

It is the second time we have used Sleeps12 for a family event totalling 27 people on each occasion.
The recommended property was fantastic, the additional extras suggested , clay pigeon shooting and a Chef and staff to come in and cook for us turned out to be superb events

Lovely house for the 10 of us x Grandkids loved the swim spa and the air hockey/ table tennis table was a hit too x They loved the owners little dog joining in a game of footy and even scoring a goal !!!very clean and everything provided x comfy beds and free standing baths a winner x Owners were very friendly and helpful x

We had a wonderful stay at whimbrels- everything we needed was on hand and the set up was perfect for our 3 families - with individual houses for some down time and night-times and the main barn for our big family time- breakfast lunch and dinner - cards, table tennis and birthday celebrations!! The hot tub, air hockey and trampoline were a fantastic addition keeping all the children ( and adults) entertained -

The website was easy to navigate
Sleeps12 kept in touch with detailed information.
The location was as advertised but the house design was a little different to the floor plan.

This is the second time booking with sleeps 12 and once again we were highly satisfied with our booking and our stay.

We would highly recommend booking through this company. Everything is thoroughly thought of and handled professionally to make your stay smooth.

We are already looking at booking another stay for next year

A fantastic weekend to celebrate our golden anniversary with all the children and grandchildren. An amazing accommodation with lots of space and things to do. The swimming pool was used throughout the day and the sauna two.
Excellent communication at all times, a terrific weekend…

Good reliable company

No issues or problems
We would recommend Sleeps 12 to friends etc

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kennard Hall in August 2025. There were 24 of us in our extended family. Ages ranged from1 to 70 years of age
The kitchen had every utensil we needed and plenty of cutlery ,plates, dessert bowls etc. (perhaps just slightly larger bowls for the adults would be helpful,)
The bathrooms were all great as were the bedrooms.
The pool was a great hit with the children and the hot tub with the adults.
The owners were very helpful. It was very hot one of the days , so we asked for some shade around the pool, they delivered this quickly, which was much appreciated.
sleeps 12 were helpful and professional, answering any queries we had.
My only small moan was that the deposit was a little slow in being returned ( but it was returned in full). I do appreciate that the bank holiday did not help with this.
I would recommend both the house and sleeps 12.( can I just however note that having the name sleeps 12 at the top of the description of a house that actually sleeps 20 plus was initially a little confusing.)

Great week with family in this beautiful farm house. Dressed throughout to a hotel standard . Very clean. Games room and library well received also the massive front room and kitchen well equipped … pool jewel in the crown

Good communication with swift response to any queries. Always polite and helpful. The property details were accurate and comprehensive. I would definitely use Sleeps12 again.

Booking was seamless. Reminders regarding payments were welcome. The cost was substantial and therefore booking through Sleeps 12 gave me reassurance. Have used Sleeps 12 previously and would highly recommend.

Perfect accommodation for our needs.
The house had everything !!!
