  • "We had a lovely week at Tickmorend Farm."

    There was ample space both indoors and outdoors for us all to enjoy and the decor has a real wow factor with lots of extras you wouldn't expect. Luxurious and comfortable and just what you need for a relaxing Christmas (with a lovely Christmas tree and decorations). A few minor issues: We do feel the listing is a bit misleading and needs clarification - it's not 6 bedrooms unless you also hire the barn (although it turned out we had!). The kitchen lets the property down a little. The 'working triangle' is squashed up one end so we were dancing around each other a lot and a single oven is rather inadequate for a property sleeping 10. Fortunately we also had an oven in the barn, plus a washing machine (there isn't one in the main house). Storage for our own food was very limited. We had some issues with the hot tub, which Matt largely sorted out for us (kindly coming out to sort it on Christmas eve) but it did reduce temperature every night and wasn't back to 40 until around midday. Matt seemed to think this was down to power cuts but it did happen every night so a bit puzzling. I repeat these were minor issues and we had a great stay, but for the price we paid we did expect perfection.

    Second oven installed. New washer/dryer Double American Fridge All added Jan 2024. Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Tickmorend Farm. It sounds like you and your family had a really magical stay and i hope the children got a visit from Santa. We really appreciate all feedback given to us by guests and we will pass on all of your comments to the Owner for review. We would love to welcome you all back for another holiday away in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

  • "A wonderful property for a family break ."

    Stayed 3 nights in early October. Weather was marvellous so made full use of fresh water pool / sauna and outside pizza oven and bbq. The 2 Labradors enjoyed the freedom of the large grounds. Beautiful setting and house&barn; were gorgeous. 11 adults had plenty of space and facilities were spot on . Good location for visiting area but we made use of the property albeit a parkrun in Stroud and shopping visit to Tetbury. Accessible for online shop delivery. Would certainly return ( age range 23-62)

    Thank you for taking the time to provide us with such lovely feedback. We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your time away at Tickmorend Farm and we hope that we can welcome you again one day soon! Best wishes, Manor Cottages. Property Owner

  • "Thoroughly enjoyed staying in this very interesting house and barn, the gardens and pool and outdoor cooking area were excellent, as were the figs and other garden produce."

    Well arranged for dogs. It worked very well for a lunchtime party with 36 guests, with a good choice of local external caterers. Downside: Only contacts for emergent problems were both in USA at the time. The large kitchen was organised by someone on LSD. The crockery, glasses etc seemed somewhat assorted, and the large plates were so large that they prevented the dishwasher from working. The powered gate failed, luckily opened. And could someone start a movement to ban all those cushions on beds? All that said, these were minor irritants and did little to spoil an excellent stay. I would heartily recommend Tickmorend Farm.

    Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Tickmorend Farm. It's a wonderful house with the pool, hot tub, sauna and BBQ area and amazing for entertaining. I'm sorry to hear you had an issue with the electric gate, the Owner has looked into this and unfortunately the sensor was damaged, hence this has now been replaced. With regards to the plates, the Owner has advised they are a standard size plate and have been used by guests for the last few years without an issue, so maybe it was the way you stacked the dishwasher?.. The owner will review how the kitchen is organised so thank you for the comment. Although the Owner was away during the period you stayed, he was available on the phone, via text and also had his staff who are on site available should you have needed anything. We hope you had a lovely event at the house and would also love to welcome you back in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

    The property was absolutely perfect for our multigenerational holiday - everyone could have their own space but there were lovely big rooms for the whole family to get together for meals and socialising. The kids loved the wild pool and the grown ups loved the hot tub and sauna, so everyone was happy. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tickmorend Farm to anyone.

  • "An excellent property for a 3 generation, 9 family members break."

    Sufficient space and equipment for us to be together to cook and eat meals, yet still plenty of areas to escape to for private quiet times. The flower gardens were stunning and the large lawn was ideal for the yougsters to enjoy each others company and play. Beyond the enclosed garden was a wild garden with paths, the vegetable area as well as the wild pool, hot tub and sauna. The break was enjoyed by everyone from the youngest through to the eldest, making it an ideal place for quality 'family time'. Matt was very helpful with answering questions we had pre and during the stay.

    Thank you for taking the time to provide us with such lovely feedback on your stay at Tickmorend Farm. It's brilliant to hear that you enjoyed your retreat and took full advantage of this beautiful property! We hope to welcome you again one day in the future. Best wishes, Manor Cottages.

    We had a pre-Christmas family get together for nine and had everything we needed and more. It is stylish and cosy and the welcome package was much appreciated. The log burners and Christmas decorations really added to the festive feel. We hope to return in warmer weather to see the gardens at their best and try out the pool.

  • "Beautifully renovated old farmhouse with newer kitchen and shower room extension in pretty countryside on the western edge of the Cotswolds."

    Spacious house with plenty of modern bathrooms, newly decorated and nothing showing signs of wear. Perfect for 8 of us in three generations staying long w/e for a wedding nearby. Space for cot in main bedroom, small double next door felt good for 4year old. Large king room for granny and other grandparents spread out across the whole of the attic with plenty of space and cosy rooms. Stairs have high treads for anyone with mobility issues but the central oak staircase and landing is a stunning feature in the house. Two ground floor loos and four different areas downstairs with wood burners plus kitchen made it very easy to holiday and prep for wedding. Tge gardens are a joy, especially for a dog wander, also footpath immediately opposite house. Super leisure area with wild swimming pool we used daily and very nicely finished sauna/shower & loo nearby. Hot tub looked great but we didn’t use. We entertained some old friends for lunch and were allowed to cut some fresh asparagus from the extensive vegetable patch which was a real treat. I couldn’t recommend this property highly enough, it was heaven to stay in and I would go back in a flash.
