      Absolutely loved it! Lovely house, excellent host, immaculately clean and really enjoyed the (optional) catered meals too. Michelin starred quality I'd say but without frills or fuss, excellent value. Will be coming back.

      Enjoyed a really lovely week in this purpose built barn conversion. Immaculately clean, the property has lovely open spaces around the property. Very comfortable accommodation. Perfect base for walking an energetic (but well behaved) dog as there are tracks and paths around nearby fields, and a good sized enclosed garden. Generous welcome pack. The outside additional barn with seating, log burner and cooking facilities is quite unique IMO. Adam prepared a barbecue for us with spectacular salads and this led us to change our order for a birthday meal for a roast dinner to a very memorable taster menu. This meant we could all enjoy the feeling of a meal out with no need to have a designated driver miss out on wine to accompany the delicious food. Lovely onsite owners, who made us very welcome. The property is away from any busy roads but a great base to easily explore the Cotswolds, Stratford, Warwick and more. Hope to return and would confidently recommend to others.
