Excellent country retreat. Spacious,comfortable,well equipped, enjoyed our stay very much. Great out of the way place!

8.0 / 10.0

Comfortable, well equipped, "rustic" converted barn in attractive countryside. The property & garden are clearly well maintained by owners (who live next door). The heating system is very efficient and I'm sure will make the property perfectly cosy in the winter months. Indeed the only negative comment is the condition of the long, narrow access road - the owners do comment on the "rough road" in the directions we received just prior to our arrival but some warning of the road in the VRBO site description would be appropriate. In September the thorny hedge growth further narrowed the access and meant that superficial scuffing of the car paintwork was unavoidable. The rough track was not a problem (our car has good ground clearance) but I was thankful that the car was not a "classic" with immaculate paintwork!!The instructions / guidance / documentation issued by our hosts was very precise and was much appreciated. The fine autumnal weather and abundance of "dog friendly" walks made this a most enjoyable stay.

From outside of the green garden gate the property seemed bland however once through the green gate the barn and the secret garden were just fantastic. The layout of the property and its facilities were very good and all the rooms were clean and tidy. All the information we needed for the barn and surrounding area were contained in the comprehensive booklet and the hosts were available (mobile) if needed. A very peaceful location in which to relax. Its location allowed us to easily visit Salisbury, Winchester, Stockbridge and Beaulieu. Making our stay very enjoyable.

The cottage is situated in a beautiful unspoilt location surrounded by water meadows with just the owners farmhouse next door. The standard of decoration and fittings are excellent Just be warned that there is no vehicular access from Houghton as Google maps indicates. Follow the owners detailed instructions and approach from Kings Sombourne. The access route is in a long track but so worthwhile once you arrive

Well equipped spacious accommodation in an old dairy barn, refurbished with taste and a love for detail, immersed in the quietude of a beautiful natural environment - just pleasantWe loved it and would have stayed longer - time permitted.

We both needed to unwind and we certainly did. 5 days of bliss. The barn was spacious, light and very comfortable and to be away from bustle, traffic and the demands of modern life even for a short time was balm for the soul. The garden, the birdsong including cuckoos, the deer, the trout streams, woodland paths and stunning skies, all added to our pleasure. Our little reactive dog was the most relaxed I have seen her. Thank you to our hosts. You have created a little paradise.

We spent 3 weeks at Ingrid's place and had an amazing stay. The place really provides for everything you need from cooking utensils to dryer and dishwasher, full bathroom and comfortable beds. A highlight for us in the winter months was the fireplace. Ingrid and her husband made sure we had everything we needed and even organised firewood for us. We loved the rural location of the place and felt right at home. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

The barn was such a fantastic place to stay well equipped with everything we needed. The garden was lovely and peaceful for breakfast in the morning and the living room cosy and comfortable in the evening. It's location was perfect for visiting Winchester and Salisbury. The track leading to the house was interesting being quite uneven but taken slowly added to the charm of the property and enjoyment of our stay. Charles and Ingrid were great hosts and we would definitely book again.

Stunning. Huge kitchen fully equipped, huge lounge, two big bedrooms, excellent modern bathroom. Large garden. I only gave the location 4 stars because the approach is difficult, off a very rough unmade road - not recommended if you have a low sports car! Otherwise - highly recommended for everyone else!

The photos don't do the barn justice - it really was perfect for us and outdid our expectations. It was warm, spacious, clean, light, and extremely well equipped (kitchen). Always hot water for bath/shower with excellent water pressure. A particularly comfortable bed! Beautiful private outlook onto the garden, lots of walking routes available from the front door. Walking distance to a fantastic pub (The Boot). Highly recommend this property :)

We had a wonderful time at this beautifully laid out property. The secluded location provided us with peace and quiet and I loved hearing the cows in the morning. Ingrid was a warm and welcoming host, and even terrier Poppy came round our door to introduce herself. The children and our dog enjoyed playing in the huge garden and the trampoline was a big hit. We were impressed with the available equipment in the kitchen and the couches in the living room were very comfortable. There are sufficient walks for the dog and the local inn serves very good food. We definitely recommend staying here, and wouldn’t mind coming back if we were visiting this area again.

Lovely property, despite being a little off the main road, we followed the comprehensive instructions and the place was easy to locate. We enjoyed being away from any main roads, the peace and quiet was lovely. The home itself, is spacious and clean, equipped with everything we needed. Great communication from the owners, who were responsive and helpful. We loved getting visits from "Poppy" their friendly dog and sitting in the garden with a morning cuppa was blissful.

We found exactly what we were looking for, a quiet, peaceful, serene spot in the country to end our UK holiday. This is a barn conversion that has been done extremely well! We found this rental spotlessly clean with a very well equipped kitchen. Well placed skylights gave the rooms a bright and airy feel. The host mentioned the bumpy road to access the property. We did not find this to be a problem. Our rental car was fairly low and just drove a bit slower. Any walkers that we came across were very amenable and courteous. Over the many years and in the different countries we have used VRBO, this rental will always stand-out as special.

Quite simple FANTASTIC

10.0 / 10.0

The barn is tucked away, but it’s well worth the effort to find it, and the instructions provided by our hosts enabled us to so without any problems. The barn itself is very spacious, clean and well appointed, and although you are attached to the main house, you feel isolated and can enjoy a peaceful break in the countryside. There are some lovely local walks, and The Boot in Houghton village, which is a 15 minute walk, is very nice and serves great food. Take a torch if you are going there after dark.

Beautiful Test Valley Barn

Beautiful Test Valley Barn

We had a wonderfully relaxing stay in this lovely property. Local walks are second to none - the barn is situated by the River Test about a 10 minute walk into the idyllic local village of Houghton - a walk to the Boot Inn for lunch is highly recommended . The barn makes the most of all the original features (it was the barn for the cows years ago) and is artistically and comfortably furnished to a high standard . It’s a warm and welcoming home from home. The hosts were very welcoming with excellent local knowledge of the area and places to eat etc Winchester is a 25 minute drive away and is an interesting city to visit with plenty to see and do.

Beautiful barn, clean and spacious. Warm and on a chilly night the property owner was happy to come and start the fire for us. Owners are friendly and we had everything we needed. Provided very good instructions to find the property abd it was a beautiful location. Stockbridge was a lovely town and we highly recommend the Kudos Coffee Shop and The Crown Inn for dinner.

A little difficult to find especially if you plug the suggested post code into SatNav. There is an alternative way which is much more straighforward. The house and location were great. It is a terrific part of the England to visit with much to do. We were only there for 4 days and could have spent longer.
