Excellent what we wanted

We booked for a special event with our kids, partners, grandkids and it was wonderful. We got lucky weather wise but our grandchildren aged 1 - 7 loved it, the space, the layout the garden area and walks and play park near by. The older kids enjoyed very much a walk to and a meal at the local pub. Excellent weekend all round.

Nice and Roomy

The house is located in a lovely Cotswold village. There were 7 adults but there is plenty of room for more with the five bedrooms. Only downside for us was the en-suite was on the smaller side.

Fantastic base for our sons wedding at Cripps barn and we were lucky enough to be allowed to check in slightly early which made all the difference. Great to be able to spend time with family pre and post wedding. Thank you

Perfect stay!

Four generations of our family had a wonderful New Year at Butts Farm. The house was extremely warm and comfortable, even with minus temperatures outside. The location was lovely for exploring the Cotswolds and the owner was very welcoming. There was plenty of space for all of us to relax. All in all, a perfect place to celebrate!

Great stay at beautiful farm house

The house was beautiful and clean. It had everything we needed for the weekend and was really well equipped. The property is a great size for a large family get away, with flexible accommodation for all guests. All beds, chairs sofas etc were comfortable. Bedding and towels provided were high quality and soft, warm and comfortable. Brilliant stay so really couldn't fault anything.

Butts Farm - a true retreat

A perfect place to stay for a slightly larger family gathering; almost home from home. As soon as you step into the barn you feel relaxed, away from the busyness of everyday life. Felt sad to leave after such a special weekend.

Quintessential Cotswold barn house

Lovely two nights in a beautiful barn, well appointed for 10 people. Great local pub and surroundings. However, could do with some more dusting and repairs. Must be fine with spiders. But we really enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful cottage

A beautiful, well equipped and spacious cottage in a picturesque village. Lovely spacious living and dining room and, as a group of 9, we didn’t feel cramped, and a huge coffee table was perfect to sit around and play card and board games. Good secure back garden for dogs. Plenty of parking spaces. Falcon Inn, within walking distance, is a must. Lovely food and service. Would highly recommend and would come back. Only minor feedback is: it would be good to provide tea towels for the non-dishwasher items.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your recent stay at Butts Farm. We're truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet expectations, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention. Your feedback has been shared with both the owner and housekeeper. The housekeeper has let us know that, unfortunately, she did not receive any calls or messages during your stay, had she been aware she would have been more than happy to assist you. A starter supply of logs was provided for an initial fire along with additional logs available for further fires at an additional charge. Regarding the issue with mice, the owner has arranged for a pest controller to visit. We also understand that you were in touch with the owner during your stay, and they wish these issues had been raised at the time so they could have done more to help. The recent burst pipe that affected several villages was, unfortunately, outside of their control, but they did offer to provide bottled water to assist during this unexpected situation.

Butts farm

Butts Farm could & should be fantastic but in reality it was extremely tired & wasn’t true to the photos. On arrival the property was extremely unkept on the outside & needed smartening up! For the amount we paid - the property needed a deep clean throughout, we found other peoples hair balls on the carpets, damp beds, cigarette butts, dirty glasses left outside, unusable fire pit & the list is endless! We booked this to celebrate a big family occasion, very disappointed! We also tried to contact the owner on 3 occasions, he still hadn’t replied.

Great place for a (mainly adult) family get-together

It was a great place for a large (mainly adult) family birthday celebration get-together. Light & airy and enough room for 9 of us to have space! Everything was as described on the website and lots of information provided in the welcome pack. The information folders in the house are getting rather worn, with pages pulled out - could do with a refresh & checking that info is fully up-to-date. More info needed on recycling - bins in kitchen are well-marked (but nowhere for glass) but all bins at the end of the drive are not. Confusion over where glass bottles went...! Shame the "family" bathroom can't have a full shower as well - but do see that it wouldn't be easy to do.... :( Can highly recommend The Falcon Inn for a meal (booking advisable). They have a back room suitable for a group of up to 12. Also the village hall is usually available to book, if a larger gathering was required for part of a day/evening. Overall an excellent place for a large group of couples.

Lovely place for an unforgettable stay

Our stay in Butts Farm was the most lovely experience. Adam welcomed us with some Easter bunnies for the children egg hunt and a very nice bottle of organic red wine for the grown ups. The farm is amazing, provides for the most comfort, the beds are amazing and the common areas make for the greatest shared activities, from ping-pong to puzzles and board games. The kitchen could be improved a bit (for example a couple of anti-adherent pans, and the lower drawer of the dishwasher needs to be fixed, as it derails when pulling out), but otherwise it is spacious and able to cater for the 11 of us with no problem. the living room is the space we used the most, with the fire lit to warm us, the sofas and blankets, the big tables for all the activities and the TV for a film in the evening. I wish we visited the Cotswolds a bit later in spring, when the weather is a bit better and the trees have more leaves, but luckily the house was the highlight of the holiday. It is pricey, and I think that paying all that money is worthier if you spend a lot of time in the house. If you are only sleeping there, maybe a bit too expensive.

Much needed family getaway

From the moment we arrived at Butt's farm we were blown away. There is ample parking, and the instructions on retrieving the key for the house was very clear. The pictures do not do the converted barn justice. It is absolutely beautiful inside and out. The bedrooms were furnished with soft and luscious pillows and duvets, the beds were super comfy. The kitchen was almost over equipped (not a complaint!) The lounge / dining room is spacious with lots of seating. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! A few points we found: The TV is too small for the size of the lounge, and the netflix button didnt work. (only wanted to use this for our toddler) We had to lift the main 'front' door to unlock and lock it which was a little bit difficult. When we arrived we had a text from the house keeper making us aware that the previous guests had lost the spare door key, and 2 of the bedroom keys, which meant that we were unable to close 2 of the bedroom doors, this was only an issue as we have an almost 3 year old who was very busy enjoying exploring the house! I'm sure the housekeeper/ owners have resolved this now) Thank you for an amazing stay, we really needed some family time, and we will definitely be returning!

Great family gathering venue

We were a family of 10 attending a wedding at a nearby venue and Butts Farm was the ideal place, it was very comfortable and spacious especially when we all had to get ready, we enjoyed the next day relaxing and having a family barbecue in the garden in the evening. The house is well equipped, plenty of hot water for us all. Poulton is a lovely friendly village, we watched the local team playing cricket and had a delicious breakfast at nearby Gilbertine kitchen cafe which is within walking distance.

Lovely sunny celebration weekend

A beautiful house to stay in which accommodated our family of 10 + toddler + 2 dogs perfectly. The secure garden was ideal for us all and our dogs Some of the kitchen equipment could do with an update though and the children were disappointed to find that the table tennis net couldn't be clipped to the table. There was also a bit of the stair gate missing but we had a wonderful relaxing time and were sad when it was time to leave

Butts Farm, Poulton

The house was ideal for Christmas and all the people staying there. However, there were a number of shortcomings, especially in the kitchen where a number of items were unusable due to lack of cleanliness and rust. All the cutlery had to be cleaned before use and there was a limited number of same type glasses, especially wine glasses.[not enough for 12 people]. The location for us was perfect, and the rooms were relatively clean.

It was ok

The property is excellently located. Unfortunately the heating barely works so it was very cold during our stay. The fire helped but was not enough to heat the property properly. There were also lots of cob webs. The water pressure was terrible and the water temperature very uneven. Overall I would rate the property as fair but it wasn’t the most comfortable stay.
Response from VrboOwner on 12 May, 2022
Hi Hannah, Thank you for your review and feedback. We are sorry that you had trouble with the heating. We have checked and there are no faults reported. We have been informed that the dial just needed adjusting to lift the temperature. There is someone available to call should guests have any issues and they will be attended to-this is in the welcome guide which is the property and also your digital guest login.

Our stay at Butts Farm

We had the pleasure of staying at Butts Farm for four nights in June.We were a party of 8 adults and were very comfortable with the accommodation and facilities.We had some minor issues after the first night that were dealt with immediately and in such a friendly and professional manner.The weather stayed dry and we were lucky enough to be able to use the bbq.One thing to point out the two hobs are electric and was not easy to work out how to control. All 8 of us would definitely recommend a stay at Butts Farm and we would definitely like to return in the near future.
