"The house worked so well for our group which included our family of 5 plus one set of grandparents."
There was so much space, enough seating for us all and the furnishings were of the highest quality and we had everything that we needed for our stay. We can't fault it and just wish that we owned it! Thank you
We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your family break at Lower Farm Barn. Thank you for taking the time to leave this wonderful feedback. Best wishes, Manor Cottages Property Owner

"Excellent property situated in lovely village."
Stands in well manicured gardens. The Barn is very comfortable and extremely well equipped. The whole family were very happy with the bedrooms and social spaces. We were well catered for. Would be very happy to recommend.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Lower Farm Barn, The village and surrounding areas are beautiful and we shall look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Best Wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"This was one of the best holiday cottages I have stayed in."
I brought lots of kitchen equipment but absolutely everything you would want was provided. Mixers, blitzes, cake tins etc. The only thing would be to have a bigger outside table to comfortably fit 8 people around for a meal. Other than that we had an excellent family holiday. Thank you

"Such a lovely place to stay."
The house was filled with everything anyone could want for a wonderful holiday… even if the weather might be bad. The kitchen had so many of the comforts of home and more. The rows of books, dvds and games were so thoughtful. The garden is brilliant for dogs and/or children. It seems no expense has been spared in making everything as comfortable as possible (I could have stolen the bed if it would fit in the car!) We had a wonderful stay.

"Absolutely loved our stay here."
Everything we wanted it to be for our family gathering and celebrations. Extremely accommodating letting us hire the hot tub for the week. The welcoming pack was great and very generous, the kitchen was well stocked and the only thing we missed was a jug to make our pimms in but obviously found a way round it. Plenty of space for 7 Adults and 2 children without everyone feeling on top of each other and my Grandson absolutely loved the children's swing, slide etc.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are so pleased you and your family enjoyed your stay and managed to work around getting some Pimm's! We look forward to welcoming you back again soon. Best Wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"Travelled all the way from Canada to discover, as you can tell from our ratings,the Farm was a smash hit."
The kitchen is very well equipped, handling the seven of us neatly. Lots of bathrooms and showers. (As a homeowner I would recommend a toilet plunger in the laundry room.) The surrounding is lovely. The community store was quite useful although Witney big stores are minutes away. So hesitation in recommending the Farm.

"This is the second time we've stayed and have been very pleased with the facilities both times."
The only slight issue is the gate from the back garden to the front garden as we have a small dog that could escape so we brought some mesh with us to make the gate totally dog proof and I note this was mentioned buy previous occupants as being an issue too. Otherwise, everything was great and we'd definitely come back again.
Thank you for your feedback and it's lovely to hear it's your 2nd stay at the house. We will pass on your comments regarding the back gate to the Owner. We would love to welcome you again for another stay with us in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

Beautiful house, so much space, so clean and the most amazing views. Lovely little welcome package left for our arrival. We can’t recommend it highly enough!

"Lower Farm Barn is a beautiful holiday home, that has plenty of character, charm in a wonderfully peaceful setting."
The house is equipped with high end fixtures and fittings, very comfortable beds and furniture where all your home comforts are met and more! We were so lucky with the weather , the garden cane into its own. We did gave to look for the property to find it though, as the address was misleading. Its actually on Bull Lane, not Bull Street for any future stays!
Thank you for your feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed your comfortable stay and were able to enjoy the garden. We hope we can welcome you back again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"Fantastic property for families and children."
Thank you for all the effort you put in to provide enough highchairs and cots, it was really appreciated! We had a fabulous long weekend. We will definitely be back!
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your lovely feedback. We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your time away at Lower Farm Barn, and we look forward to welcoming you again soon! Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

"THE SEATS IN THE SITTING ROOM WERE VERY LOW FOR OLD BEGGARS LIKE US."
IN THE KITCHEN A CULLENDER WOULD HAVE BEEN USEFUL. ( OR MAYBE WE JUST COULD NOT FIND IT ) THE ACCOMMODATION WAS FANTASTIC, WE HAD A GREAT BREAK.

"This was our second 2 week stay at Lower Farm Barn, everything was perfect."
Very clean, and comfortable. A welcome hamper appreciated.
Thank you for your lovely comments. We are so pleased you enjoyed your second stay and hope we can welcome you back again for a third time. Best wishes Manor Cottage Property Owner

"We were very satiisfied with every aspect of this holiday."
It is a long time since we have had this sort of holiday but we were more than happy! The booking was easy; we were given all necessary information and the home is even better in life than it is shown in the pictures - I’ve never known that - the photos always look better than the reality. We took our elderly parents for a week’s holiday and we were all comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our time. It just went too quickly! We would be delighted to recommend this home any time. Thank you for the use of the beautiful, well appointed, well equipped home!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We are so pleased that you found the process easy and that you and your parents enjoyed your stay. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Lower Farm Barn, and I must say it was a remarkable experience."
From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning outdoor space, spacious rooms, and impeccable selection of furniture, fittings, and design. This place truly exceeded our expectations in every way. We even received a little welcome basket with all the essentials that we needed for the first few days - it was a lovely touch. First and foremost, the outdoor space surrounding the Barn Farm Conversion were nothing short of breathtaking. Lush greenery and well-maintained pathways created a serene and picturesque setting. Our kids and dogs enjoyed the space. The spacious rooms in the converted barn were a delightful surprise. Each room was thoughtfully designed, with plenty of space to accommodate families and their furry friends. The interiors were tastefully decorated, seamlessly blending modern comfort with the rustic charm of the countryside. The attention to detail in the design was evident, with carefully chosen colors, textures, and furnishings that created a warm and inviting atmosphere. Every aspect of the barn conversion was carefully considered, and it showed. The furniture was not only aesthetically pleasing but also exceptionally comfortable. The fittings and fixtures were of high quality and perfectly complemented the overall design of the space. It was evident that great care had been taken to create a harmonious and stylish environment. As a family traveling with kids and dogs, Lower Farm Barn was an absolute haven. The property was well-suited for families, providing ample space for children to play and explore. The open layout and well-planned design allowed for easy movement, ensuring everyone felt comfortable and relaxed. The added bonus of being able to bring our four-legged companions along made our stay truly memorable. Furthermore, everything was in great shape. The property was meticulously maintained, and every detail was taken care of. From the spotless cleanliness to the excellent upkeep of amenities, we felt like we were staying in a five-star hotel. It was evident that the owners took great pride in their property and made every effort to ensure a top-notch experience for their guests. The level of care and thought put into every aspect of the property was truly commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend this charming farm conversion to anyone seeking a memorable and enjoyable countryside getaway.
Thank you for taking time to provide us with this fantastic feedback. We are so pleased to hear that you had a wonderful stay at Lower Farm Barn and appreciate you taking the time to share all of its wonderful qualities. Best wishes, Manor Cottages Property Owner

"The property was very lovely and well maintained."
It was spotlessly cleaned too, even down to the kitchen drawers and storage. Great communal space for a big group, there was 8 of us and a dog. Kitchen was well equipped and good sized fridge, freezer and cooker. A couple of very minor points only for feedback not to criticise. The bedroom off the living area was lovely but needed a mirror somewhere in the bedroom. it was virtually impossible to dry hair and use the bathroom mirror and if someone was using the bathroom at the same time. A loose toilet seat in the shared bathroom. Also check in time being 6pm is very late indeed. We were kindly emailed to say we could check in earlier at 1pm but the Journey took over 4 hours so it was too late to get there much earlier as we had already scheduled our leaving time, therefore the email was too late for us to set off earlier. We were also aware of the check in time when we booked, but still considered it late. We did get there a little earlier and we were able to access the property, which we were grateful for. I would still highly recommend the property and the process
Many thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. As a larger property, it is a challenge to get the property ready again when previous guests have check ed out the same morning, however the housekeeping team will always contact guests if the property is ready earlier. We're so pleased you had a lovely time overall and look forward to welcoming you back. Best wishes, Manor Cottages Property Owner

"The only let down to this wonderful barn is the lack of secure garden as a dog-friendly holiday let."
All it would take would be some wire one the back of one gate, as there is on the field fences around the barn. We made it dog-safe using garden furniture but it was a shame. But other than that, a beautiful relaxing home! We had a wonderful stay!
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, as the property is close to livestock, pets do need to be supervised. We pleased that you enjoyed a relaxing break in this beautiful setting. Best wishes, Manor Cottages Property Owner

"We enjoyed a first class experience in premier accomodation."
The facilities were top class with everything fully functioing . There was more than enough space for six adults and two children and the dog was well contained in the rear garden. We would certainly consider visiting again and our experience puts a big dent in the likelyhood of future visits to CentreParcs.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We are so pleased that you are as fond of Lower Farm Barn as we are! We hope to welcome you again Property Owner

"The Barn is exquisite, immaculate and a joy to spend time in."
Our family had a fabulous weekend. The pool table added an extra element that everyone enjoyed. At the time of booking the master bedroom was listed as a king bed so it was disappointing to find a 4ft6 bed in there instead. I see the description of the master bed, has now been changed, however, I would suggest that a king bed in that room would be far more comfortable and more in keeping with the overall comfort level of the barn.
-
"Bigger and better than anticipated - one of the best holiday properties we have had, made so by your quality services, kitchen, furnishings and taste!"
Attention to detail 2nd to none. We will most definitely be booking again. Thankyou. ( although you may need new pool cues which were a little worn! Fortunately we brought our own - but this mustn’t be shared as general feedback as your holiday home deserves not a single slight!)
Thank you for this lovely review. We're delighted you enjoyed your stay at Lower Farm Barn and made the most of all the facilities! We look forward to welcoming you again. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"The property was to be accessed at 6pm on day of arrival."
This is not acceptable when you are traveling with small children and wanting to cook in the evening. Check in should be at 2pm or earlier. Cleaning should be sorted out and not be a burden on the guests. The cleaners need to be monitored: the ceiling in the sitting room had cob-webs and a large spider that enjoyed our company for all 3 days. The toilet seat in the upstairs room was filthy around the seat fixings. 6pm check-in and check-out by 10am. This is robbery.
Many thanks for providing this feedback and we're sorry that you encountered some issues during your stay. We are gradually bringing forward our check in times following Covid. Insects are common in the countryside and cannot be completely eradicated. We will check on the toilet seat and ensure that cleanliness is upheld to our normal high standards - thank you for bringing this to our attention. Manor Cottages Property Owner

"We had a wonderful stay at Lower Farm Barn."
Fantastic place for a family gathering, so much space for everyone so you never felt crowded. Very well equipped. Heating worked well, lovely to have the option of log burners. Plenty of parking. Easy walk to community shop and Aston pottery. Cotswold Wildlife Park and Cogges Farm a hit for all the family. Would definitely recommend.
We are so pleased that you enjoyed you family gathering at the barn and benefitted from its space and features. Thank you for your recommendations for the local attractions. We hope to welcome you all back again in the future. Best wishes Manor Cottages Property Owner

"This is an excellent accommodation such spacious living areas, indoor and out, and perfectly proportioned bedrooms."
Great kitchen - considering copying a lot of it ourselves! Comfy sofas, fluffy towels, really just the home you wished you had. Ideal for families, especially all the outdoor space. Walkable to Aston and easy access to Bampton and Witney, all very lovely and have everything you would need.
Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Lower Farm Barn. It's wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed your stay and we hope you made the most of the wonderful views, sites to visit the lovely Aston Pottery - great to a bite to eat and you can leave without buying something for yourself or the kids.

"Wow, fantastic property, beautiful inside and out."
So well equipped with everything you need. The welcome hampers were a lovely touch including one for the dogs. The house was immaculate and as we forgot to bring the bed guard our three year old slept in the lovely cot provided which was huge. The separate lounge was brill for our grandson to watch dvds in his own space while pool tournaments took place in the main room. We were really lucky with the weather and enjoyed picnics in the gorgeous garden which was so peaceful and pretty. We would definately recommend.

"Found settees in big living room uncomfortable."
Possibly my age didn’t help. Pool table and football game a big hit. Lots of space in barn. Beds very comfortable. Wonderful part of the country to holiday.
Thank you for providing us with this feedback. We appreciate your comments about the sofas being uncomfortable, we will look into replacing these in the future. We are glad you enjoyed the rest of the facilities and hope you plan on returning in the future. Bets wishes, Manor Cottages Property Owner

"We thought the barn was extremely well equipped."
However we felt there should have been a two pin adapter for electric shaver and electric toothbrush. We have them at home but not with us so we had to buy one and share it with the family. Otherwise everything 100%. Many thanks and the weather was good too!
Thank you for providing us with this feedback. We are glad to hear you felt the property was well equipped and appreciate your comments about a two pin adapter, we will review and solve this issue as soon as possible. We hope you plan on returning in the future. Kind Regards, Barley Park Cottages. Property Owner

"This was a last minute booking due to a cancellation due to the storm."
Sykes Cottages staff were polite and very helpful at all times, we felt like we were being looked after. The property itself was outstanding, very clean and was full of surprises (in a good way!). When looking online I don't think the initial photo of the front of the property does it justice, it is a lovely place with a high end finish/appliances etc. Despite the weather ruining the weekend the accommodation was easily spacious enough for 8 adults and we didn't even make use of the smaller living room/snug!
Thank you for providing us with this feedback. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and we hope you plan on returning in the future. Kind Regards, Barley Park Cottages. Property Owner

"The property was perfect and amazing, if there was one fault, i would say that two of the sofas in the living room area, the feathers kept coming out and were prickly, and the large frying pan was non induction, but these are only minor points."
Thank you for taking your time to provide us with this feedback. We will make sure to investigate what can be done about the sofas & replace the frying pan with an induction compatible one. Kind Regards, Barley Park Cottages Property Owner

The house was clean, everything we wished for was to be found on a shelf or in a cupboard and the living space was more than adequate for the number of people that can sleep at the property.

"What can I say Fiona you have done a marvellous job with this property."
It’s high spec & has everything you could think of as a true home from home. So peaceful and tranquil. Hopefully we will be booking this one again next year or one of your other properties. The accommodation was immaculate upon arrival. And Fiona was on hand with any queries or questions you had at the end of the phone. The kids loved the freedom of running around in the ample gardens, playing games and enjoyed a couple of waterfights. It’s a great place to holiday at and create truly special family memories in.
Holidays are so important and it is wonderful to hear you made special family memories. Fiona would love to welcome you back next year! Property Owner

"Lower Farm Barn was exact what we had hoped for - a beautiful."
luxurious, well-appointed property that has everything you might need. We were a party of 8 + dog and the space can readily accommodate this number in great comfort - the drawing room is vast and all the bedrooms are excellent size. Everything feels brand new and spotlessly clean. Large garden/outside space makes it perfect for a dog and there is a nice view across the fields as well. The area is sleepy and quiet - and perfect for walks and exploring. Meanwhile the owner was incredibly helpful and went out of her way to make sure that the entire experience ran without hitch. All in all, exceptional barn-style accommodation and highly recommended by us.
Many thanks for your kind feedback which is greatly appreciated. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed all the benefits and comfort Lower Farm Barn offers. The owner consistently goes out of her way to ensure all guests have a memorable and enjoyable stay. We hope to welcome you back one day soon Property Owner

"We had a fabulous time at Lower Farm Barn."
The Barn is absolutely wonderful, very spacious, super clean and everything we were expecting. Fiona had baked 2 cakes for our arrival which was a lovely touch and the barn has things like salt, pepper, cleaning materials which makes things easier. The local area was beautiful and we are at The Artist’s residence - The Mason Arms which was excellent and highly recommended. The pool table was a fun additional as well. We would definitely return.
-
"The home/ accommodation was brilliant and suited our family get together."
Fiona was very helpful and left us a wonderful welcome pack of essentials and homemade cakes. So thoughtful. House is amazing, extremely comfortable and the kitchen so well designed with everything you could need. Lovely area and so close to places/ villages of interest. Garden was ideal and securely enclosed for little ones. I would highly recommend this property.

"Wow..."
Lower Farm barn is fantastic. Exceeded all our expectations, a perfect weekend break. Highlights...the pool table being part of the main lounge meaning everyone could get involved. The kitchen/dining area is so spacious and has got everything needed to make the stay so comfortable. The bedrooms and bathroom facilities were perfect. Loads of parking and outdoor space. The village pub had a good range of ales and wine. And finally the welcome pack was a lovely touch. Wouldn't hesitate to book this place again if having a break in the area. 10/10

"WOW what a fabulous place."
It has everything you would need in a very quiet area with huge private parking. No noisy neighbours with loads of room for all eight adults in our party to relax. Four beautiful double rooms. Two gorgeous sitting rooms with views of the gardens and a very large kitchen diner which easily seated 12 of us for dinner one evening. Not to mention the utility room with washing machine and dryer. Loved the welcome pack including a delicious homemade bake and cake. Superb place and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone.

Everything you could possibly want has been thought of. It was a real delight to spend time there.

We loved our stay at Lower Farm Barn. You will not be disappointed with a stay there.

About the location
BAMPTON
Witney 4 miles; Burford 8 miles and Oxford 19 miles.
The thriving village of Bampton lies in the Thames Valley in the southern Cotswolds, amidst beautiful Oxfordshire countryside. Bampton is one of the oldest villages in England boasting a village shop, Post Office, butcher, and traditional pubs serving good food and real ales, all set around a pretty market square. Ancient customs can still be experienced with the regular morris dancing festivities, which have been enjoyed for over 600 years. Just four miles away is the riverside town of Witney, which offers many attractions including a weekly market dating back to the Middle Ages, an 18th century town hall, and Wychwood Brewery. Burford is possibly one of the most famous of the Cotswolds' locations. With its medieval bridge, old stone houses and attractive Tudor and Georgian frontages, Burford is justifiably one of the most picturesque towns in England. Often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Cotswolds', the town was originally a fortified Anglo-Saxon ford to be an important regional crossroads and wealthy wool town. With little changing over the centuries. Burford is now very popular with visitors, both for its beauty and history but also for it's shopping and antiques, and for the wide variety of places to eat, with restaurants, pubs and teashops. Oxford, the oldest university city in England, boasts interesting Botanical Gardens, museums and libraries, and plays host to many festivals and markets throughout the year. Enjoy a punt on the River Thames or take a boat trip on the River Cherwell. The ancestral home of Winston Churchill and the World Heritage Site of Blenheim Palace is just a short drive away, where many lovely walks can be enjoyed around the landscaped parkland. With so much nearby, Bampton provides a wonderful holiday destination.
