We had a great stay at Goodlake Barns. The barns are all spacious and well equipped. The Hub provided the perfect place for our large party to gather and celebrate my 70th birthday together. All the barns had a Christmas tree in them which was such a nice festive touch. The weekend could not have been better!

This is my second year of hosting my annual Christmas weekend for friends from across the country at Goodlake Barns. We had 26 of us this year and 24 last year. Goodlake Barns provides everything we need - flexible accommodation, excellent group social spaces, superb self-catering/kitchen facilities and the Hub gives us a space where we can all sit together for a fabulous Christmas dinner. The team at Stay Cotswold are fantastic and Shelly the property manager has always been incredibly accommodating and welcoming. Highly recommended and we are very likely to return again next year! We've tried a number of other properties across the country previously and Goodlake is the only one we've booked on more than one occasion!

We had a fantastic weekend away at Good lake Barn, celebrating Mum’s 70th birthday. The location is beautifully peaceful, surrounded by lovely countryside and great walks. The barn itself was spotless, really well set out and equipped with everything we needed. Each family had their own space, with a large function room that was perfect for everyone to gather together. Communication with the hosts was excellent throughout. We even hired a private chef for one night, which made the weekend feel extra special. There are plenty of charming pubs just a short drive away too. All in all, a perfect weekend for a big family get-together. Couldn’t recommend it more!
