We had a wonderful weekend attending a family wedding whilst staying at Barnsley Cottage. The house was very homely and cosy, with ample space for our large family. It was well equipped with lots of personal touches particularly the mulled wine set to go for our arrival. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay again if in the area. Thanks to Annabelle our host who made it a stay to remember.

Wonderful cottage, well equipped to host 5 couples celebrating a big birthday. The garden is secure and suitable for dogs, Local pub serves delicious food and has a great atmosphere. Also its around the corner from the The Pig Hotel and its spa. Annabel was a wonderful host, who was keen to ensure we were warm and comfortable in her delightful cottage. I suspect we will return again soon.
6 / 10Average·Dec 2023
Looking to stay in your grandmother’s cluttered, dusty house full of unnecessary tchotchkes and trinkets? Well, this is the place. While the owner is delightful, she frets over the unnecessary instead of what a true renter would focus on...like cleaning the filthy bathroom toilets and floors, or providing clear shelf space for guests to place items on. Sorry, but I don’t need rattling old tea plates in the bedroom, perfume diffusers turned to alcohol, etc., cluttering every possible space. Further, the owner’s personal items should be locked and stored not left out as if she quickly exited her live-in home to make a quick buck on a renter. The website photos are beyond deceiving. This Cotswold cottage could overall be a good rental, but before it’s ‘let’ it’s in need of a proper cleaning and a good painting of walls/floorboards (and steam clean the now blackened cream-colored stairway carpet). Being an innkeeper or a professional leasing agent requires skill and knowledge, not just a makeshift ad on a website for “Luxury accommodations” of which it clearly is not! It needs a rescue plan that begins with garbage bag to toss all the allergy-inducing junk. The only positive is the garden which of course can’t be used in the off-season. The high quality white sheets on the beds was stunning surprise and a good start. Now perhaps the owner might go from there...
