Excellent cottage, with everything thought of. Spotlessly clean and beautifully presented. Heath Farm is beautiful.

This is the best VRBO we've ever stayed in. Jenny let us in the cottage, Beechnut, and later Ramón (Mon) showed us around. The cottage was super equipped for cooking. Our pattern is to just have coffee in the morning. We were grateful for the cafetiere which we call a French Press in the States. We ate out for lunch and then shopped at Tesco and cooked at night. There were all the cooking utensiles, pots and pans we needed. Including aluminum foil and cling wrap.Since we don't eat sweets, we asked for fresh eggs and cream as a welcome gift. Paper towel and toilet paper were abundant. We asked for a were given a fan for the bedroom. The gardens were beautiful. We used some of the walking maps provided and used the washer and dryer twice during our stay. God even provided rain-free days with some son. Ramón gave us a map of Oxford and helped us locate a park and ride. Just an example of the personal attention and generous hearts of our hosts. This would be perfect for a family reunion.

We have previously stayed in Chestnut, and decided to try Beechnut this time. It's a lovely cottage, ideal for a couple. We arrived on the hottest day of the year to find one of the radiators stuck on, however the owners were quickly on the case trying to mitigate the issue, and a plumber fixed it permanently the next morning. We love the courtyard and the grounds. The owners and son are lovely to talk to.
We hope to visit again in the near future, maybe for a winter stay.

The cottage and surroundings were superb , such a lovely location away from the hustle of the holiday traffic.
We walked and explored the area as guided by the owners , the local pubs and restaurants were great .
The Boxing Hare and the Joiners Arms particularly good .
The accommodation was quaint and picturesque , our last night was spent sitting in the lounge with log fire and some wine, the weather had turned. Our walking day was just lovely the countryside is just beautiful, walking in the woods and across public bridleways.
Thank you ! a great place to stay.

We stayed a weekend and that was not enough time to enjoy the facilities and grounds.
Our cottage was lovely and had everything we needed. The little touches were lovely too- Cake and Granola and milk.
The cottage is located in a lovely area and they courtyard and grounds are stunning.

Heath Farm is a lovely peaceful place to unwind, there are so many facilities it's hard to mention them all, Pool table, books, musical instruments, wild swimming, croquet lawn, forest to play in, films, games to mention a few, we stayed in Beechnut which was warm, comfortable and a little quirky, the amazing shower and spring water on tap were outstanding, unfortunately we had a cold week and weren't able to make the most of the beautiful courtyard to sit in of an evening. Heath farm's location is in easy reach of so many attractions, we walked every day and stand out visits were Cirencester Museum for the Roman artefacts and Chedworth Roman villa with incredible mosaics.

Heath Farm is an excellent location for a stay. Beechnut cottage is comfortable, spacious and has all the tools for self-catering. The walk-in shower is a plus for those that have challenges getting in or our of a tub. The town is a short distance away to get supplies for lunches and dinner.

If you are looking for somewhere quiet, set in beautiful surroundings this is it! Lots of interesting places to visit nearby - or simply sit by the log fire and relax. Fantastic hosts.

What a treat to walk among the gardens, trees, and beautiful living areas. Felt like the Garden of Eden with all the edible pears, berries, fresh eggs, and nature experiences. The staff were great, sharing their stories and always eager to help with any questions or interests.

Heathfarm is an amazing place to relax and unwind. Beechnut cottage has everything you need to be able to relax and soak up the glorious surrounding. The cottage is well equipped and has a super comfortable bed and wonderful log fire, if the weather turns chilly. The cleanliness of the cottage was brilliant with attention to detail obvious.
Heathfarm itself is set in a beautiful part of the Cotswolds and boasts a fishing lake and extensive grounds for walks to take in the views. There is a play field with lots of equipment for young and old to enjoy outdoor sports and even a play barn full
of “everything” you can think of to spend a few hours in during your stay.
The crowing glory of Heathfarm are the family owners who cannot do enough for you in order for your stay to be truly memorable. Their genuine warm welcome, and care for detail, in order for you to enjoy your stay is beyond five stars!

We were staying for work (hiring another cottage as well).
What an absolute treat, we usually stay in faceless hotels! Fixtures/fittings/equipment etc all to the highest standard.
Would happily come back as a visitor rather than for work!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Heath Farm. Super clean cottage with quality furnishings and linens. The bed was most comfortable.
Heath Farm is family owned and operated. We were made to feel valued and very welcome. Set in 70 acres we were free to explore and walk the various pathways.
We ate at Duck on the Pond pub just nearby. Falkland Arms Great Tew and Deddingbury Arms. All excellent meals and can recommend.
If you choose to stay at Heath Farm you wont be disappointed. You will be warm and comfortable with plenty of towns and villages to visit in the area.

I was really impressed with the Beechnut cottage. The attention to detail and thoughtful use of available space was excellent. The power shower was a great addition and the general cleanliness could not be faulted. The courtyard and immediate surroundings were well laid out, very accessible and the availability of local produce was a great asset. Having spring water "on tap" was a first for me and I must admit a great asset. The availability of an electric car charge point was also a must for me. I have definitely earmarked Heath Farm for my future stays in this area of the country.

Wonderful stay!
I loved my stay at the cottage. It was superbly clean and it had everything needed for a few night’s stay, including the logs for the open fire!. The owners are absolutely lovely and the location was perfect. I can’t wait to go back.

We have just returned from a week in January staying at Beechnut, the cottage is perfect in every way and has everything you need plus special touches of fresh flowers and a delicious cake from the on-site bakery. We made full use of the log fire every evening which added to the atmosphere after some bracing walks along the Cotswold Way. We also explored the 70 acres of the estate which has everything including a flying strip for model aircraft which we made use of.The cottage is very well placed to explore the Cotswolds which is less busy at this time of year and the friendly owners are on hand to help out if needed. Highly Recommended.

A pleasant three night stay, will be sure to return again
Myself, wife and 5 month old had a wonderful stay at Heath Farm in the Beechnut cottage. A high chair and cot was supplied at no cost along with additional towels and bedding. Type 2 7KW EV charging was at my disposal for no additional cost.
Beautiful grounds including nut, pear and apple orchards and we were also welcome to pick raspberries as well as the other fruit.
Owners David and Nena were most welcoming and Mon was on hand to answer any questions we had and give recommendations.
We all had a great time and will be sure to visit again soon!

Charming accommodation in a superb location
We spent a wonderful four night break in "Beechnut", one of the properties in the converted pig barn, which was very comfortable and well-equipped. The family gave us a very warm welcome and we enjoyed exploring the estate and we loved sipping drinks on the terrace with fantastic views of the lake and woods. Lots of good walks in the area and great places to eat - highly recommend staying here.

Beautiful cottage in wonderful surroundings
This is a lovely cottage great for a relaxing stay. Everything you need is provided and more. The owners make sure your stay is perfect and give you a great welcome to their wonderful home. You can have some wonderful walks and watch all the various wildlife - even baby deers (if your lucky)! I Cannot recommend Heathfarm highly enough - you will enjoy.

Just what we needed!
My husband and I stayed for 4 nights in Beechnut to celebrate his birthday. We arrived on a rainy night, but as soon as we walked through the door we were in awe. Beechnut felt more spacious than I expected, has lovely high ceilings and was warm and cosy. The bed was incredibly comfortable and I loved waking up to views of the paddock and sheep / pheasant / squirrels! Shower was great, and I appreciated the Faith in Nature toiletries.
Mon and family were so incredibly kind and helpful, nothing was too much trouble.
We spent our days wandering around the farm (so much to see), playing in the games room (anything you could ever want in there) and exploring nearby villages (we particularly liked Stow on the Wold and Great Tew for a wander).
The only tiny suggestions I have would be to get a mixer tap in the bathroom, as the hot tap is brutally hot - and provide cooking oil as standard (this was very kindly provided when I asked)
Thank you for a wonderful stay, we can't wait to come back!

We decided to spend a week in England this year due to toe pandemic so decided on Oxfordshire, as it’s a County we don’t really know. Looked on the Premier cottages website and found Heath farm cottages. The cottages looked lovely, all wooden and natural interior and just the right size for a couple.We stayed for a week at the beginning of September and had a good time exploring the area. The owners son was very helpful in telling us about the area and another lovely touch was the home made cake waiting for us when we got there. There were all modern conveniences in the cottage ie WiFi TV and digital radio, along with microwave and oven. All in all a good stay and we would go back in the future.

Long Weekend
We had another relaxing break at Heath Farm on our 9th visit. Just a couple of comments for improvement for the Beechnut; perhaps a more comfy sofa, as this is a sofa bed it’s not very comfy to spend chilled evenings in front of the fire - our favourite pastime!! Also we think the mattress could do with being replaced, you seem to gravitate to the middle of the bed!!
Considering my comments above we always have a lovely time at Heath Farm and it won’t stop us not booking up for next year for our 10th visit. David and Nena are always so welcoming and we consider we have become friends over the years and it is always lovely to see them.
Definitely worth a stay and would recommend every time.
See you next year xx

New Year Stay
Beechnut was the perfect cosy place to escape to after the festive madness.
So peaceful and quiet, just birdsong and the odd gust of wind !!!
Totally exceeded our expectations, fantastic cottage.
If we had to chose one place only to go on holiday to worldwide, Heath Farm would be that place
It’s amazing !!!!

The Perfect Two-Night Break needed from London
My partner and I spent two nights at Heath Farm, Beechnut Cottage. The perfect place to enjoy a mini-break away from the hustle and bustle of London and to celebrate my partner's BIG Birthday.
We arrived on Saturday afternoon, relished the neighbouring's farm massive fireworks display early evening and then snuggled in front of the log fire, with an unlimited supply of firework, toasting marshmallows. The rest of the time we spent exploring the grounds, admiring the well-fed sheep and nature at its best, despite the wet.
Both sad to leave on Monday, we ended up leaving a lot later than planned. Back to London, back to the race, we already started planning our return visit to Heath Farm.
Thank you to Mon for the warm hospitality. I adored the chocolate beetroot fudge cake and can admit, even though very difficult, it was better than mine.

A True country escape." 90/100
The planning and layout of these cottages is obvious and a great deal of thought has gone into the whole setting. Bravo! The attention to creativity is followed into the cottages. All necessary amenities are to hand and the discreet help fro the owners is to hand when needed.
A truly relaxing few days in October. We have booked another 5 days over Christmas !

un angolo di paradiso.....
Grazie a un caro amico abbiamo conosciuto questo angolo di paradiso… non saprei come chiamarlo in altro modo. Stare per qualche giorno in questo luogo ha avuto su di noi un effetto, oltre che di relax, di gioia vera. Gli spazi esterni sono curatissimi con fiori, alberi, orto, laghetto e prati verdissimi (per piedi nudi) mentre l’interno è una continua sorpresa…. oltre alla comodità del letto, della sala (con caminetto!) e della cucina, la casa è piena di soluzioni architettoniche originali, a volte sorprendenti (vedi doccia in stile mudéjar) ma sempre equilibrate e soprattutto piene di “anima”.
Un saluto e un grazie a Nena per la sua gentilezza (e per la torta senza glutine)

Holiday in the Country
This was our first time in England (from US) and we intentionally selected this location to make the most of the beautiful country villages throughout the Cotswolds as part of our itinerary. Heath Farm location, accommodations and generous host did not disappoint! We thoroughly enjoyed the well equipped cottage and surrounding sites/sounds of a beautifully kept farm. The cottage had everything we needed and we appreciated the homey details. Because we arrived after a week in Budapest staying in a city hotel, the country was a wonderful, relaxing, retreat. Waking up to the sound of various birds in the morning and coming back in the afternoon to see sheep grazing outside the back windows was delightful.
The location was perfect for us to take in all the local landmarks and villages of the Cotswolds, We were within minutes of grocery stores, pubs, restaurants and site seeing of every sort.
Thank you for a wonderful holiday experience. We hope to be back someday!

Perfect Retreat
We stayed more than once at Beechnut Cottage this summer so this is the second review that I am writing. And I can only say that it was perfect. The cottage is charming in the way that it has been converted. It has been beautifully furnished and the kitchen well fitted out. It is a wonderful development of 5 cottages around the farmhouse, all beautifully converted with the work being done by the owner and the joinery shop that he set up to do the conversions. The central courtyard design was conceived and directed by a family member and I would think very patient workmen. The detail is outstanding with a rill running down the center that leads to a carp pool. The multicolor bricks are laid in various patterns combined with local stones make this area beautiful with the English garden plants. Comfortable seating and an umbrella table are supplied for equally outdoor living.
You must go and see for yourself.

Perfection
Beechnut is one of five cottages in this beautiful oasis of country cottages, it is entirely different from the others. It has its own style which is more Moroccan in feel than the others....oh, so charming!. Beautifully appointed, using the best appliances, fittings and furnishings. There is simply nothing that they did not think of when fitting out the kitchen.
You are welcomed in the most friendly way and you feel immediately that you belong.
I could not recommend it more and this seems to be true of others that were visiting for many were on their 3rd and one their 8th visit. We shall return as soon as possible. You must come. You too will enjoy it.
