A perfect Christmas
My family and I rented the Byre for five days across the Christmas season and had the most wonderful stay. The house was beautifully furnished and warm, but the property team went above and beyond with lovely festive touches and a Christmas tree! The location was ideal, as we had all the perks of countryside calm and seclusion, while also only being a 10 minute drive away from Cirencester. The property team were also very flexible and easy to get in contact with when we needed a later check-out time. Thank you so much for making this holiday so wonderful for my family!

Un lugar especial!!!
Ha sido una estancia perfecta en los Cotswolds. Tranquilidad y elegancia, nos ha encantado y volveremos seguramente. Como recomendación , podrían poner alguna toalla más en algún armario para disponer de ella, porque fuimos 5 días y necesitamos más toallas. En conjunto: una estancia muy bonita que recomiendo y la gestión muy fácil, ya que somos de España y ha sido todo genial.

Styled beautifully
A lovely, bright and well equipped house. Very peaceful setting although very strong silage smells at certain times of the day might reduce the time spent in the well manicured garden.

The perfect stay in a peaceful Cotswolds village
The Byre is an idyllic converted barn in a dreamy Cotswolds village. A lovely, light and airy, well-appointed home with a gorgeous open-plan kitchen, hugely comfortable living room and three good-sized bedrooms. It's perfect for a family stay, spacious and stylishly decorated, with an outdoor dining area in the neat little garden. We were so happy with our choice, and were lucky to be staying on a sunny spring bank holiday weekend, where we could make use of the garden and enjoy walks in the pretty village surroundings. The area is so peaceful and was just what we were looking for to escape busy city life for a few days. Within half an hour's drive, winding through the magical English countryside, you can be in the most of the popular Cotswolds towns and villages; and favourites like Bibury are almost on the doorstep. We'd highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a perfect taste of Cotswolds living.

Lovely property
I stayed here with 3 friends for 2 nights. The house is very comfortable and we had plenty of space. Our experience could have been improved by a few additions such as something to play music on - there are no speakers or any kind of sound systems in the house. We assumed there would be - which was a mistake. Playing music through your phone speaker or laptop isn’t ideal! The kitchen is just about well stocked enough but a full set of wine glasses or some champagne flutes would be a welcome addition. My criticisms are minor but at this price point we just expected a touch more, hence the 4 star overall review.
