Our latest visitors have enjoyed the architecture of the barn and revisiting the Cotswolds after many years. They loved Chipping Campden which is one of my favourite towns.  The sun was shining as I did a final clean and I couldn’t resist taking more photos of the structure.

Our First Review!

14 04 2013

The cottage can be booked through English Country Cottages and Cottages 4You and reviews on one don’t show on the other.  Our first online review scored us 10 out of 10 for every aspect of the holiday, a standard which we will strive to maintain.  This is the comment:

Amazing, ancient property and true grand design. The barn is an amazing space with very high quality fixtures and fittings, better than home! Fantastic welcome from the owners was a great start to our holiday and we thoroughly enjoyed the barn and the local amenities.

The Sun shining in the Barn

The Sun shining in the Barn

We have had to invent a way of dealing with cobwebs that form high up in the barn. Fortunately we have grown a huge piece of bamboo that with a feather duster attached to one end allows us to reach (with care!) the furthest corners of the roof.
Our most recent guests have enjoyed eating at the Royal Oak in Gretton. They really loved their meal at The Lion which has the added advantage of being a short walk away! And they recommend the National Trust property at Chastleton about half an hour away near Moreton in Marsh
