    Cute dogs too and down the lane are masses of partridges who run in front of the car and sit on the walls, a most unusual sight for us.Very quiet and peaceful and being compact suited me as I have mobility problems. Very close to all the beautiful Cotswold areas we love and just down the road from the gorgeous Bourton on the Water.We we’re lucky to have amazing weather in October too. Wonderful.

    Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Foxhill Farm Barn.

  • "Lovely cottage in the heart of the Cotswold."

    A secret hideaway just for two. So peaceful, and well equipped for a lovely break away. Furnished to a high standard and very comfortable, enabling us to have a relaxing break, the owners garden and the outside sitting area were ideal. Enjoyed the walks from the accommodation to Bouton on the Water along well marked public footpaths - this was great as we did not fancy the walk along the main road which was a very fast road. Would like to thank Iris, Nick and the dogs for their hospitality and making sure we settled. Thank you.

    Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Foxhill Farm Barn, and took full advantage of the area, especially Bourton-on-the-Water! We can't wait to one day welcome you again soon! Property Owner

    Just between Bourton-on-the-water and Northleach it is located at the end of a farmroad in a quiet countryside. The cottage is very comfortable with exellent bed's. The owners are very friendly (also the dogs) and give you a feeling of being at home. (i had some difficulties at the departure day to take my wife home) The owners gave every information you want about the cotswolds. We didn't have any negative remarks to give. This holliday and also the owners is something we always will cherish.

  • "This is a really well designed and organised property, it is a good size for 2 people and has just about everything you could want."

    It is very nicely decorated and although not large it is uncluttered so feels quite spacious..The owners of this property live just across the courtyard and are really friendly and helpful and able to provide useful local knowledge. This is a very good base for walkers and there are some excellent local walks and places to visit from here. It is convenient for Bourton on the water and Stow on the Wold, with good restaurants and supermarkets close by. The location, has convenient access to a main road but is sufficiently removed from it via a long private drive to make this an idyllic rural location

    Host was charming and very welcoming. Property was very clean. The kitchen is basic but it did not matter as we spent most of the time out trying all the great pubs in the area. The standard here is very high. We did a lot of road biking and walking and the rolling hills and beautiful villages make this a joy. Great escape from the city.

About the location

BOURTON-ON-THE-WATER

Stow-on-the-Wold 4 miles; Moreton-in-Marsh 8 miles; Chipping Norton 13 miles; Cheltenham 15.5 miles.

Located in the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the historic village of Bourton-on-the-Water dates back to Neolithic times with over 100 buildings being Grade II listed or higher. The picturesque high street nestles alongside the River Windrush over which several low stone bridges span, which is why Bourton-on-the-Water is known as the Venice in the Cotswolds. Tradition states that an annual football match is played in the summer, in the River Windrush with the banks lined with spectators, with the aim to score as many goals as possible and get as wet as possible! The village has an eclectic range of visitor attractions, including The Model Village, Cotswold Motor Museum, Birdland Park and Gardens as well as a Dragonfly Maze, monthly farmers’ market as well as many tea rooms, an artisan bakery, antiques and craft markets, traditional sweet shop, cycle hire and its very own perfumery. Nearby, Stow-on-the-Wold, originally an Iron Age Fort, epitomises traditional England. This ancient market town has played host to many fairs since the 12th century and today holds a biannual Gypsy Horse Fair, craft fairs and monthly farmers' market. The vast market square boasts an ancient cross at one end and the village stocks at the other, surrounded by an elegant array of Cotswold stone townhouses, antiques shops, tea rooms, traditional pubs, award-winning restaurants and its very own cricket museum. Also take a visit to the medieval town of Burford for a great day out where you can enjoy a trip to the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens. The Saxon market town of Moreton-in-Marsh and the quintessential English village of Broadway are both within easy reach and make a great day out. The spa town of Cheltenham is, architecturally, the most complete Regency town in England with an incredible range of shops, cinemas, theatres, restaurants and pubs, it is famous for its horse racing festival in March, culminating in the Gold Cup steeplechase. Oxford, the oldest university city in England and sometimes called The City of Dreaming Spires has an abundance of prestigious attractions, including the 38 colleges of the university (half of which date back before 1600), the oldest university teaching room, the Bodleian Library, Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers Museums, and Botanic Gardens. Stratford-upon-Avon, Bath, Worcester and the waterfront city of Gloucester are also all within easy reach.
