Nine Acres Barn

Fantastic accommodation for lovers of peace and quiet.

Super clean with everything one needs for a stay home from home. Enjoyed the complimentary items in the fridge. Larger bath towels would have been good, but overall 120% great stay. We look forward to staying at Nine Acres in the future.

Nine Acre Barn was just perfect for us -2 couples on a walking/sightseeing holiday.

Each bedroom has its own en-suite, nice big lounge and kitchen/diner. We ate all our meals outside in the sunny and quiet garden, with birds and rabbits. Short walk to the village and its pub which does good food. House is very well equipped eg with fans in the bedrooms.

Wonderful barn conversion set in a quiet location overlooking the Wessex Downs.

We spent the mornings watching red kite and buzzards circling overhead and the garden was full of birds and butterflies. Manton, itself, is a lovely picturesque village and the Market Town of Marlborough, a hidden gem, is a twenty-five-minute walk away. Nine-Acre Barn is ideally located for visits to Avebury, Stonehenge and Lacock (beautiful abbey and village), and Salisbury is about an hour’s drive away. The barn-conversion, itself, was clean, spacious and nicely decorated. A real treat to come back to after a long day sight-seeing. Faultless. We will return.

the property's position is excellent---all that was needed was available ---top marks for leaving legible, easy to understand instructions on display and not hidden away---very comfortable beds and en suite facilities

Lovely location with walks from the door we had a great time visiting surrounding areas, The cottage had everything we needed in nice secluded spot .

Nine Acres Barn has been beautifully converted and provides a clean, quiet, well-equipped and comfortable base to explore the area.

The attractive town of Marlborough, with a good range of shops and eateries (Franklyn's Bistro recommended), is only a 5 minute drive and the prehistoric sites around Avebury only 15-20 minutes away. A good range of wildlife visits the garden and red kites are common. The owners provide most basic essentials, including tea and coffee, bacon, eggs, milk and fruit. I can happily recommend Nine Acres Barn.

This is a fantastic holiday rental.

Spacious, well equipped, clean and comfortable. It also avoids what we really dislike about some rental places in being cluttered with ornaments - this one is very simply presented which is certainly our preference. The location is private and secluded yet well located for easy access to Marlborough and all the sights. We really enjoyed early evenings sat outside watching the local wildlife. The welcome provisions were appreciated! The only suggestion I would make is a better/larger fridge freezer - there is certainly the space for it. However I noticed the pictures on the WWW do show a bigger one so we assumed it had broken and what we had was a temporary replacement. If this was the case we appreciate you providing an alternative as it did work for us. Thanks again.

Wow!

What a beautiful property. Very comfortable, peaceful and very highly equiped throught with excellent quality furnishings etc. Enjoyed the wild life and the log burner!! Would love to return in the future. Thank you.

Nine Acres Barn is in a very peaceful, rural location and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

It's also an ideal base for exploring, with historic sites such as Stonehenge and Avebury within easy reach. Many thanks to the owners for breakfast goodies and fruit! We really enjoyed our stay and would love to return. Highly recommended.

A lovely cottage in a very peaceful position.

Beautiful inside and out and a great log burner which came in very welcome when the rain and storm hit! I would certainly recommend it.

A lovely property, beds and sofas comfortable, clean and homely.

The log burner was great for taking the chill away in the evening. Very quiet and perfect for a chilled week away. Good for a base for seeing Wiltshire and beyond. Walking from your doorstep and Marlborough around the corner. Perfect in every way. The welcome pack was delicious. Will be back to see things we couldn't pack in on our week away.

Wonderful property in the countryside.

Lots of little things included. Cleaning materials, wash up liquid, dishwasher tablets, cling film, aluminium foil, plus bowl of fruit & breakfast! Sykes are not cheap! This is not the fault of the property owner.

Cant get hold of Sykes at all re mix up over hairdryer we mistakenly packed.

On phone was on hold for over hour, noone replied to my email over this. I am in area and have hairdryer and just want to return it! Been over week and half with no joy from Sykes. Nine acres is the BEST ever but Sykes need to do better

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Nine Acres Barn and would definitely recommend it to family and friends.

Really peaceful, enjoyed the wild life. Very grateful for the goodies in the fridge on our arrival. Plenty of walks in the area to enjoy.

Nine Acres Barn is very comfortable and peaceful.

You really feel as if you have escaped to the country! It is well equipped with everything you need. The owners were easy to contact and responded to any query promptly.

Everything there is of a very hijab standard and immaculately clean spoilt only by one small detail ,the black towels where very mediocre and looked it.

I am sorry to be picky about that small detail but most people who would stay there would have towels of better quality. Caro and James are very nice ,helpful hosts.

Caro and James were delightful hosts and nothing was too much trouble.

Neither invaded our privacy but were on hand to answer questions immediately. The barn itself has the most beautiful and private garden where we would sit out and listen to bird song. Inside, the Barn was very well equipped and functional. I would not hesitate to recommend Nine Acres Barn to anyone wanted a quiet break. I will definitely be back!

A super well equipped property in a lovely location.

Great local walks and fabulous scenery. We really enjoyed our stay.

A lovely, spacious barn conversion in a quiet, secluded location close to the village and within a couple of miles walk along a quiet lane to Marlborough.

The owners had thoughtfully supplied eggs, bacon, milk and apples and a plentiful supply of logs for the woodburner - and the lady owner also came to check that every thing was ok. The grey, misty weather meant that we didn't get the full benefit from the countryside views so we will have to return in, hopefully, better weather next year.

Wir waren im Oktober da und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt.

Es war wie eine Art zu Hause und wie konnten eine schöne Zeit erleben. Wir würden es empfehlen und gerne wieder kommen

A delightful homely cottage with everything we needed for our stay in Wiltshire.

It is ideally placed for exploring around the area with plenty of walks from the cottage.

Thank you for the arrival gifts.

My wife, who is a vegan, thought bacon wasn't the best choice (what if the guests are Muslim, Jewish, and/or vegetarian/vegan?) but we were visiting friends in Newbury and left the bacon with them! I ate the eggs, and we enjoyed the apples. We had a trouble free week, except for the fridge, freezer, and rooter tripping off, and the hot water tripping off a separate time. We flipped the switches back up, and there were no recurrent events, thankfully. It was really quiet, which we loved, and despite the wettest of weeks had good views of red kites, jays and chiffchaff. Astonishingly, two young men from Hi-Low window cleaning service turned up on the wettest day of the week to clean the windows! The workers got soaked - the windows were already soaked!

A spacious, very comfortable house tucked away out of sight of anybody else, yet close enough to Marlborough for shopping, etc.

peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommend.

We very much liked staying in this well equipped converted barn, situated in a quiet country setting yet close to Marlborough with good roads in all directions.

Lots of good walks in the area, including locally. Recommended.

9 Acres Barn is beautifully situated for a holiday exploring neolithic Wiltshire and the chalk downs.

We have had a wonderful holiday in this comfortable cottage. We have particularly appreciated the peace and quiet and the well equipped, comfortable cottage. The cottage feels clean, spacious and bright. Please note that if, like us, you are planning to self cater during your holiday, the kitchen does not have a fridge freezer as detailed but a small fridge with an ice box. The double bed is a small double. Thank you for a fantastic week.

In my 25 years of staying in and around Marlborough every summer Nine Acres Barn is by far the best.

Everything you need is provided, excellent facilities, beautiful spacious barn, the location is a joy, overlooking fyfield and manton. The barn offers tranquility, with close proximity to Marlborough, I was gutted I did not book it for the entirety of my trip. I cannot praise it enough. I will be booking it asap for next year. A rare diamond indeed.

We had a lovely week in the superb 9Acres Barn.

It is located in beautiful and peaceful countryside in the wonderful Kennet Valley near historic and pretty Marlborough. There is a handy pub nearby. The barn is possibly the best equipped holiday "cottage" we have ever hired. There is nothing you need missing and the owners cannot be nicer.

A lot of thought has gone into this lovely cottage, from the food in the fridge on arrival, to the kitchen equipment and the selection of books giving local walks.

It is very freshly decorated to a high standard throughout. We loved the location which was quiet (deer grazing in the garden one evening) yet within walking distance of Marlborough. Our only quibble (which we should have mentioned whilst there) was a very soft (possibly rather tired) mattress in the larger bedroom. We would very happily stay again.

We’ve just returned from a week staying in Nine Acres Barn and from the moment we first saw it we knew we were blessed.

There was a lovely welcome card and goodies including bread, milk, butter, bacon, wine and fruit. Manton is very close to Marlborough where we spent a day and also to Avebury where we spent several days. The barn itself was perfect in every way - thank you so much for accommodating us.

On arrival a nice welcoming pack, much appreciated.

We all enjoyed a wonderful and relaxing stay. All the facilities were great, all you could wish For. "Highly recommended.

Wonderful, spacious barn in delightful setting.

This barn has absolutely everything we needed, and more, for a week away. The setting is perfect, within walking distance to Marlborough, and only a two hour walk to Avebury. Appreciated the welcome pack, enabling us to settle before we found the local shops.

A very comfortable, warm and well equipped cottage in a quiet location.

Within walking distance of Marlborough. A generous welcome pack. Owners respond quickly to any problems noticed. Would highly recommend.

Excellent facilities in a very quiet location, walking distance from Marlborough.

Great Welcome Pack, which included everything we needed, and more.

Wonderful place; lovely, peaceful and natural setting.

Quiet. Well equipped. My friend and I stayed 3 nights whilst we walked some of The Ridgeway and was ideal location for that. We both wanted a good soak in the bath after our walk days and I had chosen this property over others because it had a bath. This was the only disappointment. The hot water would not adequately fill one bath without running tepid, let alone two baths consecutively. You feel a bit daft when most of you is above the water line so was unable to linger and relax. Although the owners did suggest a remedy, this didn't really work. First world problems I know but worth mentioning. I would stay again though :)

If you want peace and quiet, this is the place to be.

We had a very relaxing time at Nine Acres, it's a fabulous place. The owners are lovely but not intrusive. The goodies in the fridge are a nice touch, plus an overflowing fruit bowl! We would love to stay again! Mel and Karen

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Property lived up to description and more, inside and out with plenty of parking. Wonderful location for my Husband, myself and our Son to be with our eldest Son and family who have just returned to their house in Marlborough after two years working in France. Our thanks also for the welcome items in the fridge and kitchen. We look forward to booking again.

This barn is beautifully situated in a field near a small village.

It is well furnished and the kitchen well equipped. We very much appreciated the breakfast provisions which saved us heading to the shops after a long flight. The owners have thoughtfully provided instructions for all appliances. The property was very clean and tidy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful, comfortable, cosy and well equipped barn/cottage.

Delightful setting away from it all but only a short walk into Marlborough. Lots of interesting places to visit nearby - Avebury, Stonehenge, locks at Devizes etc and plenty of walking. We were greeted by one of the most generous welcome packs ever, and we have stayed in many cottages over the years. Highly recommend.

One of the best holiday let's we've ever booked .

Fantastic location , easy into Marlborough and good transport links . The Barn itself is wonderful , we could live there

Absolutely wonderful couple of days here … even woke up to a sprinkling of snow !

Beautifully clean and toasty warm … wood burner very easy to use …. Everything you need for a relaxing and very peaceful time .

We had the most amazing stay at the Barn over Christmas.

It was lovingly decorated, equipped with absolutely everything one may need and immaculately clean. When we arrived we were met with a roaring log fire, a bowl of fruit and fridge stocked with essentials. The location of the Barn is excellent - slightly tucked away, but still in close proximity to all the beautiful landmarks - Marlborough high street with variety of shops and restaurants, Avebury Manor and henge and Silsbury Hill. The owners are very welcoming and super responsive, but also unobtrusive. All in all, we had the most enjoyable time there and are hoping to stay there again in the future. Highly recommended!
