Perfect location and beautiful situation

We stayed here for eight nights and it was the ideal location to visit and explore the Cotswolds, Oxford, Blenheim, Stratford and Warwick. Very spacious and immaculate. Lovely to sit in the hot tub and watch the sun set. We would definitely recommend Heath Farm Holiday Cottages to anyone looking to explore this part of England.

Magical place

We stayed as a multigenerational group for my mum's 70th and the entire stay was magical. The cottages have been built with incredible craftsmanship and love into the small details. The kitchens and living areas are good sizes with all amenities taken care of. The games room and games lawn were a huge hit with the kids as was the wildlife in the woods and the pond. We didn't even need to leave the site as there was so much to do. The sunset view from the Chestnut hot tub was particularly special!
Response from VrboOwner on 24 Jul, 2026
Thank you so much for the great 5 star review! It was a real pleasure to host your wonderful family who all seemed to have a fun & relaxing stay. It's great to hear that you were all so mesmerised by the cottages and grounds that you didn't have to leave to find attractions and entertainment off site. You'll have to come back to do some explorations of that all next time. We look forward to welcoming you back one day. All the best Mon

We loved everything about it. I'm sure other guest reviews provide the details. Grounds, rooms, hot tub, pond...all wonderful.

Dear Isaac Thank you so much for you 5 star review and great to hear you'd love to come back. We have so many guests that come regularly and often end up bringing other friend and families to stay in the other cottages although it's just as suited for romantic breaks. Reviews do speak for themselves for sure and we pride ourselves on our high ratings. We look forward to welcoming you back. Kind Regards The Barbour Family

If you want peace, quiet and seclusion in an idyllic location this is it!

Wow Heath Farm The first time we came here was for our honeymoon in 2012, and we fell in love with it instantly. This most recent visit was our 5th time back, and we’ve stayed in several of the wonderful rooms there. We find chestnut is best all round for us. Can’t wait for the next time

Response from VrboOwner on 24 Mar, 2020
Thank you so much for your 5 star review. It's our reward when we know we've exceeded our guest's expectations. Heath Farm is an idyllic and peaceful retreat set in 70 acres of woodland. We take great care and attention to making sure our cottages are scrumptiously clean and feel like a home-from -home. Kind Regards. The Barbour Family

Great place to spend time in the Cotswolds

Heath Farm Holiday Cottages is a great place to spend a holiday. We stayed in Chestnut which was very well appointed. A big bonus was the wonderful country view from the hot tub. Friendly owners and staff were always available to assist. Close to many wonderful walks and places to visit.
Response from VrboOwner on 31 May, 2025
Dear Mark Thank you so much for your five star review of Chestnut Cottage. It's great to know you had a wonderful time and made best use of the sunken hot tub in your private garden overlooking our lake and woodland. The sunsets on a good day are truly spectacular! There's so much to do nearby our repeat customers (some of who have been coming for years) always discover something new to visit although they equally love just taking walks in our 70 acre estate or simply relaxing in or out of the cottages. We hope to see you again one day. Kind Regards The Barbour Family

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a great review. We strive to provide the highest standard of self catering holiday cottages. Although we live on site we do like to leave guests to enjoy the peace and tranquility we offer. We do hope you come back again one day. Do please note it's far better value for money the longer you stay as our prices are based on a percentage of our weekly price and not a price per night. Kind Regards The Barbour Family

Summer at Heathfarm

I stayed for a week at Heathfarm cottages with my farm during the summer (Chestnut cottage). The accommodation and facilities were top notch and the setting was glorious. The hosts (Mon and Abi) are super friendly and they were at pains to ensure we had a relaxing and enjoyable stay. I can thoroughly recommend Heathfarm and will definitely stay with them again

Always brilliant

We’ve been coming to Heath Farm for five years now and always enjoy our stay immensely whichever cottage we stay in. It is so wonderfully nurturing and walks around the woods and down by the pond are relaxing and so peaceful.

really lovely accommodation in beautiful Cotswolds!

Heath Farm is lovely! Chestnut is a beautiful accommodation: spacious, cosy, well equipted, beautiful furnished with lovely details of quality craftsmanship. Chestnut comes with a private garden with view at the lake and sunset. The jacuzzi was perfect to relax after long walks in The Cotswolds. We will visit Heath Farm again, for sure!
Response from VrboOwner on 29 May, 2025
Thank you so much for the wonderful five star review! It gives us great pleasure and satisfaction to know we've helped create a perfect holiday for our guests. Our cottages were inspired by William Morris who once said "Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful" We continue to live by this mantra including updates and additions we make to the cottages and grounds. We hope to see you again one day. Kind Regards The Barbour Family

Chestnut at Heath Farm

A great holiday the owners were always on hand to give advice on all the amenities available, the walks round the estate were great for your daily exercise and especially in the evenings, watching the sunset through the archway was beautiful, accommodation was 1st class with everything well equipped, a big thank you to all the family for making us so welcome making our holiday so special

An oasis as ever!

We've been coming here for many years and it has never disappointed. A rare place - made with love and creativity. Updates are done subtly to keep true to its original essence.
Response from VrboOwner on 3 Jul, 2023
Dear Caroline Thank you so much for your very kind word! Reviews from returning guests hold that bit more importance as it shows our consistency the trough the years. It's also fantastic to know that all the improvements and additions we make do not detract from the original essence, care and attention we made our cottages and grounds when originally built. We hope to see you again. Do please note it's far better value for money to stay for 7 days as our short breaks are based on a percentage of the weekly price and not a daily rate.

A wonderful stay at Heath Farm

We had a wonderful stay at Heath Farm. The hosts were fantastic. We stayed in Chestnut which was beautiful and very comfortable. Well stocked kitchen. The place was very clean and had everything we needed to make our stay perfect. The welcome pack was a nice touch and the cakes from the bakers on site was device. The grounds and surrounding areas are a pleasure to walk around, just be mindfull of the main road, it can get busy. We will definitely return.

Wonderful stay at Heath Farm

We had 10 lovely days in Chestnut Cottage at Heath Farm. The cottage was so well set up, immaculately clean and comfortable and such a charming place to stay. The setting is just beautiful and the location was perfect for us to explore the many interesting places in the Cotswolds that we wanted to visit. Very friendly staff, family working there. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you.

A really nice quirky cottage, beautifully decorated and furnished. We were made very welcome by the owners, and enjoyed the spotlessly clean hot tub, and extensive gardens and woods. The owners had thought of everything and the cottage was very well equipped. A lovely holiday.
