Lovely property and great location

We stayed (3 families) with kids and teens and the location was great for exploring the Cotswolds. The place is lovely - which was handy because it rained solidly the whole time we were there and so we spent more time indoors than we might otherwise have done!

Family get together

Exceptionally spacious and all that a large family would need for a good break away in one of the most beautiful areas in England.Lovely family seating areas inside and out . Comfy beds and great showers! Conveniently located for trips to Stow and other areas of interest .The children enjoyed the visit to the Cotswold Wildlife Park which was not too far away but very frustrating traffic to get in so need to get there very early!!! The house was in a very quiet location with good scenery and wildlife a plenty. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Lovely family stay!

We visited the barn for a long weekend to celebrate our parents 60th. There was 7 of us and 2 dogs and we had a lovely time. Plenty of space to spread around and have our own space if we needed it. The barn itself is lovely - a car is definitely needed to get around but it’s in a serene setting. The house is so much bigger in person than on the photos and in lovely condition. We would definitely recommend and visit again in a heart beat!

Spacious property

We enjoyed a three night weekend break at Waterhead Barn to do some yoga, country walks and relax. The house was very spacious and it was great that each bedroom had its own ensuite. Andy, the house manager, was really helpful throughout the booking stage addressing various queries and also during our stay. It was a lovely peaceful location, plenty of parking and the downstairs space worked perfectly for our group. We did a couple of long walks in the area and enjoyed seeing the racehorses go by in the mornings too! Aesthetically maybe there could be a few improvements/updates eg the bedding and the outside areas, but overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Great birthday weekend

The location for a birthday weekend with the family was perfect and was a great space for everyone to be together. The house was beautiful, and lots of different space to socialise. The house was a little dirty but this was not a massive issues, could have used more outdoor lighting when trying to park as arriving in the dark. Great space would recommend

Lovely location in the Cotswolds

Customer service both from the company and Andy, the owner's rep, was very attentive, and the property is very comfortable. Location is beautiful. The condition of the property was ok, quite a few carpet stains and some of the kitchenware needed a good wash before use
