The property was an excellent choice. It was comfortable, warm and well equipped. We would have no hesitation in booking again. Many thanks to our genial hosts.

Second time we have stayed here. Five stars again 👍

Fabulous property with everything you need for a relaxing break. It was lovely waking up to see sheep grazing next to the property. A short walk into the village, and lots of choice for canal and country walks. Good choice of pubs within walking distance and the Boat house did an amazing Sunday lunch. Amanda and Matt were great hosts and were there if you needed them. The property was superb, furnishings were top quality and spacious with everything you needed. Even an outdoor area to enjoy more views and a glass of wine. Great stay thank you, 5 stars x

Oak Barn was simply beautiful. A huge space for a very comfortable stay. Lovely beds, facilities and everything you need for a restful, stress-free stay. I stayed with my two children and mother for a week, whilst my mum stayed on an extra week. There were fantastic views of the canals which my mum adored. A lovely location to walk around and everything else just on the doorstop or not too far away. Overall a great stay.

Beautiful clean property in a lovely part of the countryside with very helpful and accommodating hosts.

My friend and I stayed here as a base for a 1-week canal walking break - for which Braunston is ideally situated. We were a day late arriving due to a car breakdown and it was great to be able to give updates to the owner via HomeAway. The property is spick and span - and clearly Amanda & Matt are keen to keep it that way, given the abundance of notices regarding rules - understandable given the standard of furnishing though perhaps also slightly oppressive. The kitchen in particular is so well-stocked with both utensils and store cupboard ingredients (salt, pepper, vinegar, tea, coffee, milk etc.) and there was a welcome pack including all one could wish for and more including a lovely chocolate cake. Indeed, in terms of both kit and food, I’ve never stayed anywhere as well-provisioned. On our last evening, we had a minor plumbing crisis when a bathroom tap came off its moorings - but when I went round to the main house in a flap, this was very promptly fixed by Matt and with a smile (that really counts !) Not many negatives here - only the parking - a big expanse of gravel in front of the barns is not open for parking, (presumably because it would spoil the appearance ?) - I get this, but it would be nice to be able to use it for loading & unloading on arrival and departure. And a second clothes drying rack please ! Maybe a DVD or Blu-Ray player too. All in all, though, a positive experience and a place that seemed higher spec than I would have associated with this price bracket. I’d certainly go back if in the area again.

Very nice place to stay, nice spacious rooms, very clean, quiet and nice countryside views especially seeing the sheep and lambs. Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed in Oak Barn for our visit to Silverstone MotoGP. The accommodation was first rate, beautifully presented and very comfortable, a real credit to Amanda and Matt. Would definitely stay here again.

Oak Barn is a wonderful and fabulous cottage, lovely maintained and beautiful furnished to feel homely. Everything is immaculate and in the kitchen there were some much appreciated food staples upon arrival. The surroundings is very idyllic, peaceful and quiet. Amanda and Matt are very nice, sympathetic and helpful people who understand that their guests feel very comfortable. We felt very well and we will definitely be back Thank you so much Anja u Pano with Annika u Chris

Oak Barn was truly wonderful. We stayed for 3 nights and didn't want to leave. The setting, cottage, facilities and hosts were simply faultless. We've never returned to a property before but we will to Oak Barn. Highly recommended.

We had an amazing stay at Oak Barn. Everything that we needed was there and more! The place is immaculate with some much appreciated food staples upon arrival. There were a few minor issues that Amanda and Matt fixed right away. The area is lovely with a store within a short walk. If you do get the chance to stay here, make sure you to try the floating cafe, we only figured it out on our last day. We would definitely rebook the Oak Barn!

What can we say? Who wouldn't love Oak Barn? Every room is equipped and dressed to a very high standard with a real feeling of luxury including the outside space. Perfect balance of rural idyllicness and accessibility to everything you would want within easy reach. Wonderful owners who achieve what so many find so difficult: being on hand to welcome and answer queries and allowing their clients the peace and quiet to enjoy the best break. Don't change a thing. We will be back.

A wonderful cottages in a nice area. Friendly and helpfhelpful owner. Brand new property with a luxury touch. We've enjoy our stay. Thanks
