Long weekend with friends

We rented the house for 4 nights and everything was great. Hamilton was super helpful and the house is perfect. Kids loved the playroom and we really enjoyed the barbacue and hot tub. Hope to be back. Would definitely recommend to spend a few days in the Cotswolds!

Really recommend - great place!

We had an amazing stay! The house is beautiful and incredibly spacious — perfect for our group of 12 friends. The hosts left a lovely box of goodies for us, which was such a thoughtful touch. All the rooms were large and comfortable, and the game room was a total game changer — we spent hours there! The property itself is stunning and had everything we needed for a perfect weekend in the Cotswolds. Highly recommend!

Family celebration at Yew Tree Farm

I booked Yew Tree Farmhouse for a birthday celebration. The place was perfect. We had five children in our party and the games room was excellent for them. There was also plenty of room for us all. It was well equipped and the welcome pack was much appreciated. I also thought that Stay Cotswold was very helpful in giving lots of information up front. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely family stay

We stayed here for a get together for my mom’s 70th celebration, and it was great . Stunning house with good amenities and brilliant games room ! It was quite expensive but if it’s split between a group then it’s affordable, we had a fantastic time at yew tree farm house .

Family get together

We had a great family get together, six adults and six children. Kids were happy the whole time, entertained in the games room, hot tub and extensive grounds. Generous hamper left for our arrival, plenty of toiletries in the bathrooms and cleaning products for dishwasher and washing machines. Great place to stay.

Perfect for large family/group stay

We were a large group of 10 adults and 3 children aged 5yrs to 18mths. The accommodation was more than adequate for us and the house and large garden felt safe for supervised children of that age. We were very lucky with the weather and ate outside every day for a week. Plenty to do locally and at Yew Tree Farmhouse for adults, children and dog. Host was very responsive to a couple of issues that were quickly resolved.

Perfect venue for a special family gatherint

We stayed there as a family of 14 for my mums 80th and had the perfect weekend. It has a games room of dreams - pool, table tennis, table football and an amazingly comfy leather sofa too - perfect for watching movies and sport. The kids enjoyed playing football outside and the hot tub and we had a couple of special family meals round the dining table. The smart sitting room was beautiful and it had 4 lovely kingside beds so us adults all had a really comfy bed for the weekend. We also did a couple of nice walks in a loop from the property. Really lovely venue, highly recommend!

A great property in need of some external love.

Whilst YTF is undoubtedly a money sink and accordingly expensive to rent we felt it should have been a bit smarter. Paintwork scruffy in several external areas, rather dirty rear 'patio' floor, large table uneven (patched up) and felt there more could have been strimmed even allowing for not-quite faded daffodil and bluebell foliage. Rather cheap cutlery not a plus point and pieces are falling apart. The dishwasher somewhat awkward and not big enough. I felt the hot water tank was boiling some of the time. A great property, great weather, great fun so seen through a rosy tint. We greatly enjoyed it - but a return visit??

A wonderful Easter holiday break with all my family.

Three generations, a party of 14, our five night stay was just perfect for us all. The Games room was the biggest hit with the teenagers and also the goal posts. We were blessed with sunshine so could eat outside the whole time. The house is gorgeous and was well equipped even a study for our grandson studying for upcoming exams. We loved it and hope to return.

70th family birthday get together

Overall a very good stay. Only gripe, the garden needed mowing and tidying up. The hot tub was either cold or too hot.

Ideal location as a base for exploring the South Cotswolds

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Yew Tree - there were 12 of us meeting up for a few days walking holiday in the Cotswolds. Although we didn't use the games room nor the hot tub, we did enjoy the comfort of the rest of the house including the garden and patio. The only fault we could find was perhaps more organization was required in the kitchen cupboards. Altogether an excellent venue.

A beautiful house

14 of us, ranging from 5 to 78 years old visited for a week long break and had an amazing time. The property and grounds were wonderful and were perfect for our large group. We had plenty of space to do our "own thing" but also for us all to be together as well. The house is stunning - quirky and full of character. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this as a beautiful place to stay in a lovely part of the country.

Lovely Family House

We had a fantastic stay with our Children and Grandchildren at your lovely house. We particularly enjoyed the large garden and space that the house offers. The hot tub proved very popular. We appreciated your quick response to our questions during our stay. The welcome hamper was a lovely gesture. We would have no hesitation in recommending it to our friends.

Amazing house in the countryside

If you are looking for a large family/group getaway, this is a perfect venue. Location feels like you are very much in the countryside, but still so easy to access. The house itself is truly amazing - the layout makes it feel huge and for a large group you never feel like you are on top of each other. Had a very warm homely vibe to the house and the games room brought a lot of entertainment for our stay. The hot tub was a bit fiddly if you arent used to woodfired hot tubs, but a nice addition nevertheless. Great comms from the host too, really helpful when we had a few questions.

Yew Tree Farmhouse

This is a lovely property, both the house and the gardens, but some details need working on. Hamilton was a responsive host, and kindly allowed us the slightly earlier check in we requested. For what seems like a premium property, it was disappointing that there is no wardrobe or hanging rail in bedroom 5, which otherwise is a nice room. Examples of those details which don't quite match up to the otherwise good standard include: The kitchen tap was loose and felt like it could come adrift at any point (we reported this to Hamilton shortly after arrival); some downstairs carpets are stained; the dishwasher is temperamental; the electric oven is small (although there is an AGA) and felt grubby; and the garden furniture outside the kitchen door needed sweeping. But Yew Tree Cottage is a great place for a larger group to stay - the house itself has lots of character, the garden area is very green and peaceful, and the hot tub and games room are great.

Wonderful family home

What a great place for a family gathering. We booked Yew Tree Farmhouse for my wife's 70th birthday surprise and it was the right choice. The setting was superb, the house was wonderful and allowed great flexibility for old and young alike with the bedroom configurations. We instantly felt at home there. The area itself has much to offer as expected of the Cotswolds. We visited both the National Trust's Chedworth Roman Villa and Chastleton House that are within a leisurely drive from Yew Tree Farmouse. Would we go back there again? In a heartbeat.

Luxury at it's best

This is an exceptionally stunning property. It's old but warm and welcoming. Large rooms that accommodate the full capacity of guests. Everything is provided that require fo cooking, cleaning etc. Even shampoo, air fresheners and bath soak. The games room has plenty to occupy all guests, a dart board would be a great addition. The hot tub is a fab bonus. 12 of us stayed in luxury for my husband's 60th birthday. Highly recommend a stay here.

Family Birthday Celebration

We had a wonderful time staying at Yew Tree Farmhouse celebrating a family Birthday. It is a beautiful, spacious house set in a wonderful location with lots of lovely walks on the doorstep. You have to remember that it’s in the country and next to a working farm so you do need to be prepared for, in our case, cows mooing through the night! The games room was well equipped and spacious and the wood fuelled hot tub was relatively easy to get going. Both were very much enjoyed. Would highly recommend for a large group get together.

Luxury accomodation at a very decent rental price

Lovely house with everything in great working order Felt a luxury weekend and we enjoyed the house and it's facilities very much Lots of space for a party of 12 and enough of everything eg glasses that match etc We all loved it. The only complaint was the family bedroom the mattresses were very uncomfortable according to the friends in that room. But no other niggles at all. Thank you for the welcome pack too.

A family gathering

I booked the Yew Tree Farmhouse for a 70th birthday celebration. There were 11 of us and to location was perfect for our needs. We had a great weekend and booked a local chef to come into cook our dinner on the Saturday evening. The games room provided us with additional entertainment and we didn't realise how bad we were at pool and table football. in the area around Hannington Wick there were many places to go and visit especially RAF Fairford. The New Inn in Lechlaid on Thames was open for an evening meal on Sunday which was a godsend as not many pubs in the area were able to do so.The facilities at the farmhouse were as described on the website and the rooms were large and airy and the electric heaters were needed as the nights were chilly. The grounds were dog friendly with plenty of room to let our son's dog run around. The minor issues regarding the heating, cutlery, washing machine and tumble drier were passed on to the managing agent. All in all a good weekend was had by all.

It’s wonderful that the location worked well for your plans, and that you were able to make the most of the local area, including a visit to RAF Fairford and a well-timed meal at The New Inn in Lechlade-on-Thames. We’re also glad the games room added some extra fun to your stay. We’re pleased that you found the farmhouse spacious, comfortable, and as described, and that the grounds were ideal for your son’s dog to enjoy.
