We stayed at the house for our son’s wedding and our hosts couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming. They really went above and beyond to make our stay memorable, we couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
4.9
We have only good words to say about our stay. Patricia and Alastair have been an excellent host, making sure we have everything we need, the cottage is stunning! My family can not get enough of taking photos inside and outside. Patricia arranged the dining table like 5 star! There are also chocolates and sparkling water on every room!! It is all worth it, very pretty cottage, lovely host , treated us like a family. just wish we could have stayed longer. Definitely coming back.
4.9
Monastery Barn accommodated our family of 5 ( parents and 3 adult children) perfectly. The cottage is spacious and the hosts catered to our every need, including suggestions for groceries at a farm to table establishment and taxi service to a wedding in King Sutton. Alastair and Patricia were the most gracious hosts. We would love to return!
4.9
A brilliant house in a beautiful village.
The owners are so welcoming and very helpful. The house is excellent with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Walking distance to local pub and kids play area. We will be going back next year.

We spent 2 nights at the monastery barn and we had a great time. Communication with the property manager was fantastic. They were very generous hosts. We particularly enjoyed spending time in the conservatory and in the enclosed garden were we able to let our dog explore without any concerns!
4.9
Nice comfortable accommodation, quite quirky. Very welcoming friendly hosts. Welcome pack included the essentials and much more. Very dog and child friendly.

The Monastery Barn was everything you’d hope for in a weekend away! A beautiful home, wonderful location and fantastic hosts. Patricia and Alastair left us chocolates, champagne, laid the table ready for us and even left out a children’s book for my son. They gave us recommendations for rainy weather, let us use their bbq - there really wasn’t anything they didn’t do for us. They are fantastic and I’d highly recommend the monastery barn to anyone looking to visit the Cotswolds!
Thank you Patricia and Alastair!

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel very welcome. Patricia and Alistair were such lovely people.
The house was just as described and very comfortable to be in. There was an information pack in the house that detailed anything that you could think of, with places to visit, nice walks, Restaurants, Pubs etc.
Our dogs loved the garden which was enclosed so we could leave them outside and not worry about them getting out. They loved the toys that were there for them to play with.
The area was very good for sightseeing around the cotswolds. Lots of lovely walks and the local pub was only a five minute walk
We arrived as strangers and left as friends. Would recommend this house to anyone.
We will definitely be back.
Thank you Patricia and Alistair for your kind hospitality

Fantastic stay!
Lovely house with lots of outdoor seating areas - some sunny and some shady which were perfect as we were there during a heatwave. We loved sitting in the conservatory and our cockapoo loved the garden. Comfortable, well-equipped home and the hosts were very generous with little treats that they left for us. Patricia and Alistair were on hand to offer help, recommendations or just for a chat. Great location for country walks and pubs. Would definitely recommend

Fantastic stay / Wonderful hosts
First of all, the hosts, Patricia and Alastair, were brilliant! They made everything possible to make our stay perfect, from buying a brand new bbq to patching a inflatable pool we brought along for the kids.
The house is great, the garden is beautiful and being fully closed was very helpful as we could leave our kids and dog free to play together. Wifi internet was very good, which helped me do some home-office work. Every detail in the house was prepared with care and to a great standard.
We did some bike rides around the area and the landscape was beautiful. There is a sweet playground just across the street that the kids loved to go to and play.
We will certainly go back!
Thank you!

New Year
We would definitely recommend staying at this beautiful house! The 6 of us and Ozzy & Moaki had a fantastic few days for the New Year.

Amazing and welcoming stay on the edge of the Cotswolds
Our group of 7 had an absolutely lovely stay at this cottage. Patricia and Alistair were so warm and welcoming. They made us feel at home from the moment we pulled in the driveway.
The cottage itself is very quaint and a great location to explore the cottage. It has three bedrooms, all with comfortable beds. There are two bathrooms- the ensuite with a shower/tub and the other bathroom with a tub/shower handle. There is a toilet downstairs in the laundry room.
There are two rooms to lounge in and an amazing backyard (garden) out back.
They had chocolates on our pillows and other little touches that made us feel very welcome. The kitchen is very well supplied.
I absolutely recommend staying here. We couldn't have asked for more welcoming hosts!
Thank you so much Patricia and Alistair

Fantastic hosts and a wonderful weekend!
Alastair and Patricia were so kind and welcoming to our group. They made themselves available to show us around and answer any questions but didn't impose on us in any way.
The house itself is fantastic! The communal spaces fit our group perfectly (6 adults / 3 small children / 2 dogs) and we never felt too cramped. The rooms are lovely too. As is the garden! Would stay again here in a heartbeat!

Very welcoming...
A beautiful property with a delightful and private garden in a fabulous area of the country. A wonderful welcome, help along the way, very thorough information about the house and area. All in all I highly recommend a stay here. My foreign cousins really liked the 'grandeur' of living in another 'age'! a beautifully set table with silverware and crystal and china to welcome us, real paintings on the wall, some old furniture! Thank you to you both for helping make their stay 'memorable'... Mary
