About this house rental

The lovely town of Burford occupies a position on the meandering River Windrush. Burford is built on a fairly steep hill, and the view from the top of the hill looking down the High Street to the river is one of the classic panoramas of the Cotswolds. A lovely 4-arched medieval bridge, widened in the 18th century, crosses the Windrush, and though Burford itself does not occupy the northern bank, a walk across the bridge is rewarded by wonderful views across watermeadows to the spire of St. John the Baptist parish church.
152 The Hill has been completed renovated and now offers 5 individual holiday homes, The Barn is one of them, all five properties can be all be rented if you would like, family Christmas, special occasions, the whole property will sleep up to 23, but you will all have your individual space, please see 8379754, 8379757, 8379752, 6977567, and please contact us for details.

The barn has been very tastefully presented and was very comfortable. In terms of location, it doesn't get much better than this. The barn is set back from the High Street, so road noise is not an issue at all. All of the shops, restaurants and pubs are within walking distance. It was lovely to park the car up for two days and not drive at all. The Angel, just off the High Street, was a particular favorite, but do book in advance. It was really handy having the courtyard garden for the dog. In summary, a fabulous place to stay in a beautiful Cotswold town.

We just loved The Barn, it perfectly suited our needs, the welcome gifts were amazing and very kind. The courtyard is lovely as is the shared garden and the location amazing if you want to go out dinner and/or breakfast. We would definitely rebook If I had one tiny criticism it’s nothing to do with the host or accommodation it’s the Vrbo App it is awful

The Barn was walking distance to town, shops, and restaurants. There was a nearby grocery store and we drove to other Cotswold towns from Burford.. We enjoyed the shared courtyard and the cupcakes on arrival! We would definitely book this property again if we were to return to England!

Pro’s: Great location on main street of adorable Burford. Clean accommodations with all necessities. Comfortable beds and nice bath amenities. Con’s: Very difficult parking due to no designated parking, location and popular town. Housekeeper parked is loading zone and shop keeper harassed us while we loaded up in another loading zone. Potential for noise as shared common area right in front of this unit, so if you want privacy, this is not it. About 5 units in this shred complex. All things considered, would stay there again!

Burford is a gem; ‘the barn’ is fantastic! Spacious, light, comfy - felt right at home. Greeted with cupcakes, fresh bread, jam and a bottle of champagne in the little fridge. Laundry available if needed; wonderful shared outdoor space. Ready to move in for good😊 Thank you, Sally!

You can't beat this rental property! I spend far too much time analyzing where to stay during my family trips and I looked at many different towns in the Cotswolds. This location was perfection. Burford is a charming town with a fantastic main street filled with lots of shops and excellent restaurants. Plus it's a great launching-off point for other Cotswold towns (Chipping Camden, Broadway, Bourton on the Water, Blenheim Castle, etc. The cottage itself is wonderful. Tons of space downstairs with a large, clean kitchen, large kitchen table, and roomy living area with TV. The upstairs worked well, too, with 2 bedrooms of good size. When we arrived, the kitchen was stocked with fresh baked bread, a lemon loaf, milk, coffee, butter and jam! So kind and saved us from having to run to the grocery store that night. I would 100% stay at this property again and hope to in the near future!
