Lovely spacious house. Very well equipped (almost like home). Within travelling distance of most Cotswolds highlights. The few words "working farm" in the description do not mean a friendly mooing cow, but running machines and engines (squeaking in reverse) from 7:30 am, during most of the day. The nearby highway is very noisy 24x7. But what really ruined the stay was a construction site (not mentioned) just 50 metres away. Loud noises all day from engines, squeaking, power tools, grinding, radios, clanging metal. It was never quiet. Sometimes conversation was even impossible. The response was disappointing: the manager Hugo did not know there was a construction site at all. The local representative felt we had no right to complain because it said "very clearly" that it was a working farm and we were the first to complain.... The bungalow is next to a business park. Cars passing the speed bump are very loud in a certain bedroom and garden. So relaxing sitting in the garden was only possible on Sundays. The sofa really needs to be replaced: my children preferred to lie on their beds (which were all uncomfortably hard) than with us in the sitting room. The owner/local representative was there willing to help and solve some problems. But of course, they couldn't stop running the farm and construction site. That 'forced' us to leave most of the time, staying at home was not pleasant.

We loved this property. Quiet and peaceful with loads of helpful information from Hugo and Chrissie. It was a treat to spend a day in busy London or Oxford and then return to the tranquility of the Cow Shed in the evening. We loved our stay!

Perfect location for exploring Oxford and the Cotswolds

Firstly we took 2 dogs with us and the garden was not secure for them and they kept getting out as well as a dog from a neighbouring property coming into the garden. There was nowhere within walking distance to take the dogs for a walk which was not very helpful. Also there was no tea, coffee, sugar or milk provided so we were unable to have a drink when we arrived and also no washing up liquid and only one toilet roll which when I queried this we were provided with 2 more.. The internet was very poor and we struggled to get on to it most of the time. Overall we had a lovely time but I think that the property needs a more accurate listing.

Had a lovely time in the little farm cottage. Everything was clean and it had everything you needed.

We loved the location, had a great stay and the cow shed met all our needs. There was lots of wildlife about and it was very peaceful. We used it as a base to visit Blenheim, Stowe and Oxford. The owners were very helpful and accommodating.

The house was so comfortable and Chrissy and Charlie were the most superb and helpful hosts. We were lucky enough to be here during the Covid pandemic and Chrissy and Charlie made our extended stay a dream. The house has everything we needed with some special touches to make it very comfortable and functional, especially during a long-term stay. Life on the farm is quiet and relaxing. I would highly recommend it, short or long-term. It's a great place to recharge!

We stayed for a week in this welcoming and warm cottage in February 2020 where everything was provided for. Good selection of free food and milk/tea/coffee which took away any stress of having to shop after a long trip from Scotland. Thank you for that. I particularly liked the quality, heavy interlined curtains and blinds! Beautifully warm on arrival, light, airy, lovely views out of windows. All in all, a recommended homely cottage. Communications from the owners were excellent.
