Thorndale is an outstanding holiday cottage, providing luxury self catering accommodation in one of the prettiest Cotswolds' locations. Walk amongst the hills to the local pubs or watch famous racehorses train on the hills or simply sit in heavenly surroundings and do nothing - and just relax! Set on a farm which trains top class racehorses on the surrounding land we were simply gobsmacked at the location and accommodation on show. Inside the open plan living space downstairs and bedrooms upstairs have been designed and presented to an exceptional standard, with a real attention to detail and one fits the building beautifully.
Oak flooring, huge oak trusses, a handmade kitchen and luxury bathrooms together ooze charm and appeal, while large, deep mattresses in inviting bedrooms ensure a good night's sleep. Two of the six bedrooms are located in a separate, private barn approx 12 paces from your front door (to the side in the picture). Together this is a perfect choice for a large group or family who looking to enjoy a quality holiday home in one of the finest Cotswolds areas. We absolutely loved it when we visited.
Northleach was at one time an important market town, celebrated throughout Europe as a major centre for the Cotswold wool trade! The fifteenth-century church of St Peter and St Paul, paid for by the wealthy wool merchants, was built with stone dug from the quarry in the town itself and what is now the Market Square. More recently the village has been used in a number of recent films, including the Casual Vacancy of 2015.

We were lucky as we had no rain whilst there and managed a few walks on the beautiful estate. Rosie Vestey was a very nice, friendly and very pleasant welcoming lady to us all and came round to say hello and meet us all soon after we all arrived. It was my 80th birthday celebration with all the families of my two daughters, who were also very impressed with the location and the accommodation, which was first class. We can all thoroughly receommend staying there. The house is a beautifully furnished and clean home, with a gorgeous log fire and very impressive views of the estate. Being an opera fan and visiting Melbourne frequently, we were impressed to hear of the relationship of the Vestey family with the late Dame Nellie Melba. We also recommend the nearby The Mill Pub for an excellent Sunday Roast. We also enjoyed our visit to Cheltenham and the Christmas street market and lights. We as a family will definitley consider staying at Thorndale Farm Barn Stable Cottage again in the future.

Rosie was a perfect host, receiving the Christmas food we had arranged to be delivered and inviting us to her special event for port and mince pies the next day. The property had all the kitchen equipment and facilities we needed to feed and entertain 10 adults over the holiday. Great walking and running in the area. An easy drive into Cheltenham and an excellent cider farm with shop and street food just down the road. We had a great stay and are very grateful to Rosie for being such a great host.

Thorndale was just absolutely perfect for us, a large open plan living/kitchen space, spotlessly clean and the owners were incredibly welcoming. Would 100% recommend.
