Spacious property in good lication

The property was very good, but would have preferred a standard oven rather than an Aga as it took so long to heat up. Whilst we were staying we had to take deliveries of parcels on behalf of the owners as on two occasions delivery companies arrived. I don’t think this is acceptable when you are on holiday. It felt like an intrusion.

Amazing accommodation.

We had a fantastic stay in this beautiful modern accommodation. With three en- suite bedrooms it lends itself really well to family vacations. It is located in a fantastic area in close proximity to Oxford, Burford and the beautiful Cotswold countryside.

Beautiful house in a great location

This house was ideal for us. We were three couples celebrating our son's 30th birthday so needed space and ensuite bedrooms. The open lounge/kitchen was perfect, as was the private patio. Great base for days out too.

Lots of lovely things to say about this property, location, comfort and fully equipped, however, Outdoor furniture was in poor state and a chair was so rotten it disintegrated when I sat on it and we also put another away as it was also rotting. We were advised not to sit on the furniture and the caretaker brought us a bottle of wine as way of an apology which was kind. I think that sort of thing should be considered before renting out fully furnished homes for indoor and outdoor use. Thankfully I was only bruised. I was not expecting the furniture to be replaced at short notice I understand these things take time. I do hope this is acknowledged for future holidaymakers.

Fantastic cottage in an ideal location for us. Some details could have been better eg cleanliness of the table, cookware and oven; some instructions out of date; central heating complicated to control; front gate wouldn’t close. But these were just details.

Excellent in every way.

Beautiful barn conversion in a peaceful but convenient location to explore the Cotswolds. Plenty of parking space. Secure garden for our 2 dogs. En-Suites in every bedroom and a lovely open-plan living space. I wished we could have stayed longer.

Great place to stay

The Old Barn is a beautiful place to stay in a peaceful location, just outside Witney. The whole place is well kept and clean which is really important to me. It was a joy to watch the sheep graze outside the window while we enjoyed our meals. We chose the Old Barn over other holiday properties in the area because it was wheelchair friendly, with 2 bedrooms and bathrooms on the ground floor level. It is also level access into the property from the front door. In summary, I would thoroughly recommend a stay at the Old Barn.

Old Barn

The Old Barn is hidden behind two other homes and is difficult to locate from the Crowley Road. Pity the house next to the road is not mentioned in the directions to get there. Once arriving the property is delightful and instructions for using the utilities is on the bookcase shelf. It has a lovely view over the fields to Witney. Worth the excellent rating.

Relaxing weekend away with friends

We had a fantastic time at the Old Barn. It looks and feels as amazing as it does on the photos. It is a beautiful place to stay with really excellent facilities, stunning views and really good value for money. Really comfortable living area, very well kitted kitchen with really stunning design of the conversion. We also relaxed in the large garden and enjoyed the views. There is a great local pub about 5-10 mins walk away which we would recommend. The communication from booking was also second to none, all in all 10/10 stay.

Lovely Stay

Super views a good base for us to stay, first impressions very welcoming and a nice welcome pack left for us. Thank you for a lovely stay, very comfortable beds and sofas and clean and tidy. Facilities good although we did not use everything provided. A couple of suggestions please can a shower door be placed on the bath to enable the shower to be used in the master bedroom, and the fan in the ensuite bathroom not working but able to open the window. Entrance gates tight to turn into. Throughly enjoyable stay would recommend.

A family celebration

Six octogenarians , three sisters and their partners, one visiting from Canada, took a rare opportunity to spend time together in this lovely house and setting. As soon as I walked in I knew it was just what was needed - light and spacious, with two bedrooms on the ground floor and excellent facilities. everywhere well equipped , the kitchen perhaps over so, and the only downside was coming to grips with the Aga when we wanted to cook in the oven. Wonderful views and the presence of rare breed sheep added to our enjoyment. A fascinating and quirky conversion - like sharing a home with a library! Very helpful and courteous staff at Boltholes.

Not for long stays

We have stayed here twice before and love the location and layout with two bedrooms on the ground floor. Unfortunately there is nowhere really to hang clothes other than the hooks on the wall. The cupboards don't take much and we lived out of our suitcases. I am sure its fine for a weekend. We stayed in the ground floor bedroom in single beds which were uncomfortable, but I cannot climb stairs. The big wooden gates are always broken and difficult to move. The Aga stove might be nice in the winter but it makes the house very hot when it's warm and it takes hours to heat the oven. We would prefer a barbecue but there is none. I don't think we will be going back.

Great holiday home let down by lack of hot water

Lovely property with great location and views and well equipped, but we were disappointed to have to endure cold showers. The property manager was quick to respond, polite and friendly when we contacted her and she promptly visited to attempt to sort things out. Whatever she did however failed to last til the next morning. She was again responsive offering to send a plumber but it was too late as we were leaving that day. Another few small things to mention that certainly didn’t ruin our holiday but we would suggest are easy to remedy: - the email we got with directions stated the turning off Crawley road was on the right when it was on the left. Easy one to fix and important especially as GPS not reliable at the address so what three words etc not helpful. - the manual for the electric AGA was not where it was stated to be (in the desk drawer). We finally found it in the kitchen. Note also the link to e manuals in the welcome pack didn’t work. - weird that there were some massive big saucepans and two little ones but only one appropriate for boiling or steaming potatoes and veg for 6. Two steamers but no pans to put the steamer insert in??? We certainly enjoyed our holiday and hope these things will be remedied so that future visitors benefit from action of our feedback.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us on your recent stay at The Old Barn. We’re very pleased to hear that enjoyed your stay and the property's beautiful location. Your feedback is incredibly valuable, and we’ve shared it with the owner and property manager. They’ve asked us to pass on their apologies for the issue with the cold showers, which have now been resolved. They’re also working to fix the links to the e-manuals and are looking into providing some additional saucepans for future guests. In the meantime, we’re also updating the directions to the property to make arrivals smoother. We hope to welcome you back to the Cotswolds again soon.
