Teo & Elena “Our stay at The Granary was wonderful.”
It is such a peaceful and beautiful place. Jennifer was quick to respond to our questions throughout our stay. Our 1.5yo daughter loved it too. It is a really friendly place for children, with gates on the stairs, high chair, etc. Thank you for the hospitality.

- Rahima, Nov 2019Monica “We had a fabulous stay at the Granary!”

- Monica, Oct 2019Rakesh “Beautiful surrounding and property”
- Rakesh, Sep 2019Kunle “A really lovely stay and the nearby villages were beautiful”
- Kunle, Sep 2019Hilary “Furnished to a very high standard.”
Excellent attention to detail especially in the kitchen. We ate in every night and there was everything we needed to cook our meals- even salt, cooking oil etc provided.
- Hilary, Aug 2019Jo “3 generations of our family (ranging in age from 19 months to 60 years+) enjoyed a long weekend stay at The Granary.”
This unique property is set amidst beautiful gardens and stunning countryside with resident sheep, all of which made our weekend super special. The property is very comfortable and well equipped (we requested stair gates, high chair and cot) which, combined with the location, made our stay idyllic - we all felt as if we'd had a mini holiday! We cooked all our meals in the property; the kitchen was well equipped (microwave, dishwasher, etc). We stayed the hottest weekend of the year (so far) and we were particularly grateful for the bags of ice supplied for drinks - thanks so much Jennifer! The owner is available on-site if required and was friendly and helpful before, during and after our stay. We'd all love to return some time.
- Jo, Jul 2019Linda “Great Location for visiting the Cotswolds close to everything but very peaceful and quiet at the property.”
Perfect for us.
- Linda, Jun 2019Liz “The Granary was a fantastic venue for a family of 4 to stay for a few days in the Cotswolds.”
We enjoyed relaxing at the property itself with plenty of space in the gardens for the kids to run around, and a terrace with a view for a glass of wine. Close by to all the key attractions in the Cotswolds it was a great base to explore the area. Would highly recommend.
- Liz, Jun 2019Callie “Excellent”

Perfect after a day working, which my group were. Perfect for large groups or families and myself and my work colleagues would definitely stay here again.
- Dave, Mar 2019Estella “We had a wonderful stay at the Granary.”
It was cosy but spacious and very comfortable in a beautiful rural setting, perfect for exploring the Cotswolds. We were delighted to see the Christmas tree sparkling in the window when we arrived - lovely touch. Hope to be back one day.
- Estella, Jan 2019Julie “What a lovely stay we had, very cosy historical barn.”
Had all the amenities that was required, hot water, warm radiators, all kitchen equipment, Xmas tree, TV and Netflix. Wonderful views, we were lucky to have bright sunshine most of the time. Wonderful quaint village Broadway very close and well worth a visit. Will make every effort to return in the summer so we can have a BBQ on the balcony looking over the beautiful views.
- Julie, Dec 2018Pam “The Granary was amazing.”
We lived our stay here. The owner has thought of everything you would need. Very clean and very cosy. Plenty of room. Fantastic views. Would highly recommend this property. We will be back. Thank you for the extra special touch of the Christmas tree.
- Pam, Dec 2018Peter “The house was very well equipped and in a lovely location.”
It was very comfortable with stunning views. The owner was very friendly and accommodating when we met her. It was certainly perfect and would definitely stay there again.
- Peter, Oct 2018Elsa “We had a fantastic family weekend away at the Granary.”
It is an added bonus that they are dog friendly so we could bring our two little yorkies along as well. The property is beautifully converted and surrounded by beautiful gardens, fields and an orchard. It is only few minutes away from a lovely town with lots of local shops. The scenery is beautiful and we found plenty of things to do. The black guide was really useful and comprehensive. It was really great having all that information about the local area to hand. Thank you for a lovely stay.
- Elsa, Sep 2018Agata “Had a great time, and would happily book again!”

- , Aug 2018Monica “The Granary was an absolutely perfect base for us.”
We visited with our Son, Daughter in Law and 3 year old granddaughter who did not want to leave her holiday house The large garden was great for her to run around in and let off steam. We would all go there again.
- Monica, Aug 2018Cheryl “Lovely accommodation in a beautiful, peaceful setting.”
- Cheryl, Jul 2018Pam “Beautiful and relaxing.”
It was a joy to stay here, so peaceful makes you feel at one with nature. The beds were very comfortable and so clean. Couldn’t fault it and loved Robbie the robot grass cutter.
- Pam, Jul 2018Wilson “The pictures on the website do not do this place justice, such a tranquil energy to the place!”
- Wilson, Apr 2018Janice “The cottage was ideal, warm, comfortable and a home form home.”
We're were working at the Cheltenham Festival and enjoyed relaxing in comfort after a hard days work. Can recommend the Red Lion in Little Compton.
- Janice, Mar 2018Anneka “We visited the granary for our annual girls weekend away!”
We can’t speak highly enough of the place. Jennifer was extremely helpful prior to the visit especially as there was the bad snow and she was there to meet me on arrival. The house is tucked away in the middle of no where and is in a beautiful location. The house is well laid out and has everything you would need for a self catering holiday. It has amazing views from the balcony. We walked into the nearest village Long Compton and hadn’t lunch at the Red Lion Pub which was lovely so would definitely recommend. This took just under an hour to walk. We also visited Moreton in the Marsh which is a beautiful old village with some great pubs and shops. All in all this is a great little place and I will definitely be back!
- Anneka, Mar 2018Hayley “We had a lovely stay.”
The house for our requirements perfectly and the location was idyllic. Thank you!
- Hayley, Jan 2018Rachel “Lovely property, well equipped and cosy.”

- Greg, Nov 2017James “This property is absolutely beautiful, one of the nicest places I've ever stayed.”
- James, Oct 2017Charlotte “Beautiful Cottage, very clean and well presented, extremely peaceful and relaxing, would book to go again and recommend to anyone considering it.”
- Charlotte, Aug 2017Lee “A lovely property situated in a peaceful location away from the everyday hustle and bustle of life.”
The Granary offers all the comforts of home and is very well presented and welcoming. The area is ideal for those who love rural life, beautiful scenery and tranquillity. We loved watching the local wildlife including deer, owls and bats and the sheep in the Orchard were very friendly. We enjoyed a great family day out at Warwick Castle (approximately 30 minutes by car). Overall, we would highly recommend this property to both couples and families. The one thing we would recommend would be to use the services of a supermarket delivery for convenience only.
- Lee, Aug 2017“Lovely cottage in the Cotswolds.”

- , Apr 2017Carol “Warm welcome, lovely and quite with great views.”

- Davies, Nov 2016Lemos “Fantastic stay, Jennifer thank you very much for all arrangements.”
Would definitely visit again. The Granary is absolutely stunning place with great views. Very peaceful place. The owner was very helpful and a lovely lady.
- Lemos, Nov 2016Deacon “I was very happy to stay at the Granary for a long weekend.”
The property is lovely and the pictures almost don't do it justice. The decor is really nice with lots of amenities, there wasn't one thing we lacked over the weekend. Very warm and cosy as soon as we opened the door with little touches going above and beyond such as hand wash, shower gel, etc. We met Jennifer (the manager) and she was also very nice and made the effort to say hello when she saw us out on the balcony. One only very slight critique was that the single beds were very small as were the duvets, I was a bit afraid to turn over in case I fell out. But I guess if kids were in the beds it would be totally fine. It’s a very minor comment and didn't at all affect the enjoyment of the property over the weekend. The views are stunning too and it is warm, cosy and great place for a holiday. We had a lovely stay at your house.
- Deacon, Nov 2016Henty “Enjoyed our stay in this beautiful rural setting.”
All means catered for in the lovely ‘Granary’.

- Sharma, Sep 2016Shrestha family “What a great discovery!”

- Shrestha family, Aug 2016Robinson family “What a gem of a place.”
We had a great Mon-Fri break here, greatly wishing we had a lot longer. So peaceful, great for children, and so much to do in local area. Recommend Cotswold animal Park- fantastic family day out. Thanks so much and hope to visit again in future.
- Robinson family, Jul 2016Croxford family “Very well equipped, comfortable and peaceful.”

- O’Connell family, Jun 2016Myatts and Wilsons “Perfect use of space!”

- Naylor family, May 2016Colin, August 16 “A lovely barn conversion in a beautifully quiet location.”
We were able to make full use of the decking area and our little grandson was facinated by the sheep next door. We would defininitely stay again in this quieter part of the Cotswolds, in accomodation worthy of five stars!
- Colin, August 16,Jennifer, August 16 “The Granary is a beautiful house that is newly available for holiday rentals.”
The furnishings and everything were great quality. The garden/yard was beautifully kept and huge. There was even some play equipment for our young children. More than we could ever have asked for. On top of this, the owners were friendly and provided us with a great local informational guide
