We had an excellent holiday in this extremely well presented accommodation.
We had an excellent holiday in this extremely well presented accommodation. Spotlessly clean and spacious. It has all the home comforts and more that make for a very peaceful, relaxing holiday in a lovely location. The hosts could not be friendlier. Always willing to chat but in no way intrusive. We'll definitely be visiting again.

A fantastic cottage in a rural setting.
A fantastic cottage in a rural setting. A great place to escape to. Great hosts, super standard of accommodation, we will definitely return. We had three good meals out in Royal Wootton Bassett, Purton Stoke and Hook. If you want to stay in and cook the kitchen is well equipped. Plenty of places within a reasonable driving distance.

Spacious accommodation for a couple and all on one level.
Spacious accommodation for a couple and all on one level. Immaculately presented. Nice welcome pack with home made treats and a bottle of fizz. John and Jackie were helpful and friendly. The location and self-catering facilities suited us very well for relaxing and sorting ourselves out after full days out, and the coded, gated entry system offers good security. We didn't try any of the local take-away delivery services. A car is essential though if you want to eat out. Lovely to gaze out of the window in the morning to see what the sheep were up to! Would certainly stay there again if holidaying in the area.

The Old Dairy is very homely and very well equipped, with restful decor, it was perfect for us as we
The Old Dairy is very homely and very well equipped, with restful decor, it was perfect for us as we were visiting family who live nearby, however it is near to many places that one would visit on a holiday so the location is great, and in the week we were staying we visited 2 national trust houses, Bradford on Avon, and nearby Bath, we tried local eating places too, all very good. There is a large Sainsbury’s in Wootton Bassett for essentials. The owners are delightful and Jackie provided us with the yummiest flapjack along with some other treats. The bed is cosy, dressed with a wonderful down duvet ensuring an excellent nights sleep, I enjoyed having sheep ‘in the back garden’ and hearing the clip clip of the horses as they went out as well. We appreciated the outside area being well lit behind the secure gate when we returned late in the evening. No hesitation to recommend it
Mooi en goed ingericht verblijf, van alle gemakken voorzien. Zeer vriendelijke eigenaren. Zeer rustige locatie buitenaf. Heerlijk voor een rustige week.
