Guests say
Oliver's Barn in Hungerford is highly praised for its cleanliness, stunning renovation, and high-quality furnishings. Guests appreciate the spaciousness, well-equipped kitchen, and beautiful gardens. The property is ideal for family gatherings and special occasions, with many recommending it for its wow factor and comfort. While one review mentioned discomfort with the beds and a safety concern, the overwhelming majority had a positive experience.
Guests consistently mention that the property is very clean, with everything looking new. The high standard of cleanliness contributes to the overall positive experience.
The barn is appreciated for its great location in beautiful countryside, ideal for walks and local pubs. However, one review mentioned a 20-30 minute travel time for Christmas activities, slightly affecting the score.
Many guests found the barn comfortable, with good space for groups and well-appointed amenities. One negative review about bed comfort and suitability for the elderly slightly lowers the score.
Facilities are generally praised for being of a high standard, with a well-equipped kitchen and quality accessories. One review mentioned an issue with a washer dryer combo, but overall feedback is positive.
While guests are delighted with their stay, there is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, this score cannot be provided.

Nice location, bed’s uncomfortable and furniture. Not suitable for anyone with an allergy to duck feathers and sofas and cushions are full of them. Not suitable for elderly as going into the downstairs bathroom had a lip which my 87 year old grandmother tripped on and broke her hip so we didn’t have a very nice holiday, willing to provide pictures of where the tiles are higher going into the bathroom compared to the carpet in bedroom. Good for a quiet stay for people who love to go on walks in the country not ideal for a Christmas stay unless willing to travel 20-30 minutes. Washer dryer combo isn’t great.
