  I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Lower Farm Barn, and I must say it was a remarkable experience.

  From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning outdoor space, spacious rooms, and impeccable selection of furniture, fittings, and design. This place truly exceeded our expectations in every way. We even received a little welcome basket with all the essentials that we needed for the first few days - it was a lovely touch. First and foremost, the outdoor space surrounding the Barn Farm Conversion were nothing short of breathtaking. Lush greenery and well-maintained pathways created a serene and picturesque setting. Our kids and dogs enjoyed the space. The spacious rooms in the converted barn were a delightful surprise. Each room was thoughtfully designed, with plenty of space to accommodate families and their furry friends. The interiors were tastefully decorated, seamlessly blending modern comfort with the rustic charm of the countryside. The attention to detail in the design was evident, with carefully chosen colors, textures, and furnishings that created a warm and inviting atmosphere. Every aspect of the barn conversion was carefully considered, and it showed. The furniture was not only aesthetically pleasing but also exceptionally comfortable. The fittings and fixtures were of high quality and perfectly complemented the overall design of the space. It was evident that great care had been taken to create a harmonious and stylish environment. As a family traveling with kids and dogs, Lower Farm Barn was an absolute haven. The property was well-suited for families, providing ample space for children to play and explore. The open layout and well-planned design allowed for easy movement, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and relaxed. The added bonus of being able to bring our four-legged companions along made our stay truly memorable. Furthermore, everything was in great shape. The property was meticulously maintained, and every detail was taken care of. From the spotless cleanliness to the excellent upkeep of amenities, we felt like we were staying in a five-star hotel. It was evident that the owners took great pride in their property and made every effort to ensure a top-notch experience for their guests. The level of care and thought put into every aspect of the property was truly commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend this charming farm conversion to anyone seeking a memorable and enjoyable countryside getaway.

  On booking the property no warning no visitors allowed on the property.

  found out after paying the non refundable fee. booked for 10 nights for 6 adults. when i was able to speak to the owner I made it clear as i booked the property for my family visiting from cyprus I would be visiting. I also informed her that they would be arriving very late early morning and I would be waiting for them the owner assured me that was no problem. Originally I was expecting 7 of them I would wait for them to take one of them to my house. 6 arrived plus my son who helped them to find their way from the airport. He had his own car and left shortly to go to his own house. They arrived later than expected due to bad weather at about 2am that is 6 adults with 12 suitcases. Next day a text from the owner complaining that the quests next door were awaken and complained. Also a rude reminder that only 6 quest sleep on the property. I assumed that they have cameras on the driveway and saw me leaving on my own. I answered to her texts when i spoke to her she said it was the noise when they arrived not any noise when in the property. 6 adults, 12 suitcases gravel driveway and the 2 properties very close together. The property on first glance is very beautiful and very clean. The log burner one of the reasons I booked it, some wood ready to use when I asked for more I was told I could buy it locally I foolishly assumed that was included to the price. Despite our best efforts not all radiators were working the main one in the lounge they came and repaired it when I told them but in my opinion that should have been checked before my family's arrival. Very low water pressure in both bathrooms shower in the ensuite in need of repair as shower head is floppy. I had informed the owner that my family would not be in the property for 2 nights on return we found out she had come into the house and turned down the heading my family returned again to a cold house. Some extra wood would have been nice for the savings she made as no use of power and water. No instructions were left in the property. My family all adults very respectful of the property. They left no rubbish, tidy up did not strip the beds. I will not be booking again this property,

  The property was very lovely and well maintained.

  It was spotlessly cleaned too, even down to the kitchen drawers and storage. Great communal space for a big group, there was 8 of us and a dog. Kitchen was well equipped and good sized fridge, freezer and cooker. A couple of very minor points only for feedback not to criticise. The bedroom off the living area was lovely but needed a mirror somewhere in the bedroom. it was virtually impossible to dry hair and use the bathroom mirror and if someone was using the bathroom at the same time. A loose toilet seat in the shared bathroom. Also check in time being 6pm is very late indeed. We were kindly emailed to say we could check in earlier at 1pm but the Journey took over 4 hours so it was too late to get there much earlier as we had already scheduled our leaving time, therefore the email was too late for us to set off earlier. We were also aware of the check in time when we booked, but still considered it late. We did get there a little earlier and we were able to access the property, which we were grateful for. I would still highly recommend the property and the process

  We loved our long weekend at The Linhay.

  Many thanks for the bottle of Prosecco and chocolates from us, and a woof from Rollo for the little chews. We were lucky with the weather for November and got in some walks along the Ridgeway to Uffington White Horse and Weyland's Smithy and in the woods at Badbury (Rollo’s favourite). And then came back to a cosy warm cottage with wood burner (husband’s favourite) and supper (kitchen well supplied with the equipment I needed) The beds were very comfortable, I particularly liked the upstairs bedroom with the sloping eaves. The cottage was beautifully decorated with some special touches, Rollo was a bit puzzled by the dog he kept seeing in the massive mirror in the living room! There was a Waitrose, Aldi and Esso just a mile up the road towards Faringdon which was very handy. And the cottage was easy to get to from the M4. A very pleasant retreat away from the fireworks for our dog, just a few moos in the morning from nearby cattle and I’m sure I heard some owls too

  We had a wonderful 9 day holiday stay over Christmas at The Linhay.

  The barn is as beautiful, light and big in size as shown in the pictures. The bedrooms are fabulous looking and super cosy. The family bathroom quirky with fabulous wallpaper and an amazing bathtub and the shower room great. The kitchen is well equipped, the bedding warm and fluffy and everywhere are lovey details, be it the pictures on the wall, the amazing mirrors all over the property the blankets and cushions, the fabulous log burner or in our case the beautiful Christmas tree. Attention to detail everywhere. I was so pleased to be able to bring my dog, as there was a little garden and some space where he could roam out front. The barn is at one end of a beautiful Cotswold village adjacent to beautiful country walks. Also a perfect spot to explore the Cotswolds from the north east. The owners were attentive and kind and catered to our needs which was amazing. Definitely a place I would highly recommend and I would return to.
