This is a truly stunning property, newly renovated and refurbished to the highest standards throughout. It is extremely spacious with spectacular uninterrupted, south facing views of the Cotswold countryside. It is a very secluded and quiet location, backing onto ancient beech woods.

The barn is entered at split level onto a spiral stone staircase. Upstairs is a very large main bedroom, with oak wooden floors and comfy arm chairs.There are doorways leading to smaller second bedroom and bathroom with an iron roll top bath. The second bedroom contains bunk beds and is suited to 2 young (well behaved!) children under 10 years old ( under 30kg and five foot 5 for lower bunk)

Two sets of French windows open directly from the main bedroom onto an external balcony with completely uninterrupted 180 degree views of Cranham Common and stunning Painswick valley.

Downstairs is a flag stone floored (with under floor heating) open plan living room and kitchen. Two sets of French windows open onto the patio and garden, south facing and with the same fantastic panoramic views. There is a wood burner should you wish extra heat, and complimentary logs.

The barn has a built in Sonos speaker system so that you can play your own music, radio etc from your chosen device throughout the house. There is a selection of board games, DVD player and numerous DVDs.

A lawned garden area and stone terrace with table and chairs has been set aside for the exclusive use of the barn's guests. There is ample room for parking of vehicles as well as secure space in outbuildings for bicycles etc. We could even accommodate your horses with ample warning in the farm stables!

The property backs on to the ancient Buckholt beech woods. There are miles of beautiful walks immediately from the doorstep and a quintessential country pub within 5 minutes stroll. We are 200m from the Cotswold way.

    Beautiful country farm outside a small village in the heart of the Cotswolds. Place was just as described. Very clean, comfortable and modern interior with heated floors. Carolyn, the hostess, was super nice and easily accessible to answer any questions or concerns. Stayed there almost 3 weeks and enjoyed every minute. Would highly recommend this place.

    Very beautiful renovated barn, and the view is great. However it was missing a few standard conveniences. We could not get the TV to work at all, there was a dvd player there with dvd’s, but that didn’t work either. We mentioned it to the gentleman on site. He said he would look into it, but never did. Fortunately the kids used their Ipad and could watch some things on there. Not all of the window shades worked. Being that the sun sets after 10pm and rises before 5am, it was difficult to get a full nights sleep. Also, there is no shower (which was mentioned in the listing). But the tub is not a large one. I am 6’4, and it was quite difficult for me to bathe. It also would have been nice to be able to wash our clothes somehow.

    We loved this little barn and would recommend it wholeheartedly. Lots of space for a family of 4. Beautiful views out the back doors. Lovely countryside. Conveniently located for a driving tour of the Cotswolds and surrounding areas. Clean, well-maintained, and peaceful. We had a little trouble finding the place, but the neighbors were very friendly and showed us the way. If you want a serene retreat in an area of natural beauty, this is your place!

    A great base for exploring the Cotswolds. The barn is lovely and comfortable. Truly the only drawback is the no-shower-only-bath set-up.

    A fabulous luxury barn conversion in a beautiful quiet countryside location attached to a farm. The barn is stunning and beautifully renovated with underfloor heating, a log burner and a roll top bath. It was difficult to wash hair in the bath as there was no shower head but it was bliss soaking after a days walking. There are amazing uninterrupted views from the terrace and the balcony in the bedroom across the valley and plenty of walks from the door. The local pub ( Black Horse) was a short walk away in the village and served excellent basic pub food. It was a real local pub and wevhad a delicious traditional Sunday roast in front of a cosy log fire ( booking recommended as the pub is very small and popular with locals). The barn is within easy reach of Stroud and Cheltenham fir shops and pottering around. We’d also recommend visiting the National Arboretum at Westonbirt ( about 30 mins drive) , walking the footpaths across Painswick golf course to the beacon for stunning views , walking to Sheepscombe for lunch at the Butchers Arms and visiting Gloucester ( cathedral and Docks). Carolyn was extremely helpful and sorted out a few minor issues quickly. A lovely area and great accommodation.

    We had a fabulous three-night stay at Carolyn's lovely cottage. The views are just breathtaking, the bed super comfy and the kitchen has all you need for a short stay. We'll be back!

    Very nicely converted barn with amazing views makes this a really cosy and peaceful place to stay. You know that you're getting a top quality place with not much around but close enough to nearby towns not to feel too isolated. 2nd room is well described....not for older kids. Ours 8 and 10 were fine with it. Carolyn was a really helpful and responsive host who provided a lot of useful info up front and also was quick to respond to questions in advance and during the stay. Highly recommended.
