Great place to stay overall

Very nice property, well equipped and fairly comfortable. Easy parking and good location for what we needed. The passing trains were more frequent and louder than expected but not really a problem. The bed was ok but could do with being a pocket sprung mattress or at least an over mattress, just to make it even better 🙂 Hosts were welcoming and helpful

A great weekend!

We have just stayed here over the weekend. It was just what we wanted. It was just me and my husband so perfect space. It is essentially in one room - a studio except for the bathroom. Nice decor, good service from owners. I would recommend it!

Great little property

Had lovely 2 days stay. Owner sent details early and let us know he wouldn’t be there to welcome us.It is near rail tracks but the noise didn’t bother us as didn’t last long each time a train passed. We got very hot and couldn’t get the skylight to open. Messaged owner and although he was away he arranged for a fan to be brought to us and it was great. It wasn’t far to stoke buruene so we visited there for the day. Also found 2 great places to eat in towcester:truva and watling st. Would recommend accommodation and would stay again.

Cosy weekend getaway

Perfect spot to stay for our Silverstone weekend. Beautifully laid out stable conversion, spotlessly clean and lovely hosts, who were very helpful in advance of our visit with location and transport information. Blisworth is very pretty and unspoilt, recommend Nings Thai for food!

Small but perfectly formed.

Set in beautiful surroundings with the Canal, shop and hostelries only a short walk away, was perfect for us. The West Coast train line is very close and very busy but no bother at all. After a few trains, completely faded into the background! Anticipate returning next year.

Lovely short stay

We stayed at the Shergar over the bank holiday weekend and it was a brilliant experience. Perfect for a couple’s getaway as it is immaculately clean and has well thought of amenities. The hosts , Tim and Nicky, were very helpful, welcoming and polite; they were also kind enough to allow us check out at our convenience on the day. We would definitely recommend!

Excellent hosts

We stayed in the Shergar studio which was really well designed, equipped and beautifully presented. It was spotless and every detail was considered. It was a very late booking (2 days prior to arrival) but Nicky and Tim made us feel like very valued customers. They were a delight to deal with and nothing was too much trouble. Thankyou!
