The Apple Barn

A lovely cottage in a quiet and relaxing location.

We really enjoyed our stay in the Apple Barn. It is cosy and comfortable and very clean. The location is so quiet - all you can hear is the wind in the trees, birds singing and sheep bleating in the distance. Elaine is a lovely, friendly host, who greets you on arrival. We would definitely stay here again.

There is just one word to describe Apple Barn and that is "perfect".

Elaine was a lovely host. Would highly recommend to any couple looking for an away from it all break.

A cosy, beautifully clean and comfortable little cottage in a lovely peaceful location.

We loved our stay at the Apple Barn and would recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet escape away from it all. - if you want to wake up to nothing but cows, sheep and birds calling this is the place for you.

Lovely relaxing week very comfortable and cozy accommodation.

Good walks. Car is a necessity to get round.

Clean, comfortable, peaceful, delightful cottage next to farmhouse surrounded by fields of sheep.

Everything you'd need in the kitchen. Charming host. Large bath and shower (shower not quite hot enough).Highly recommend!

We’ve loved our stay at Apple Barn - couldn’t have wished for more.

After a long damp winter we felt we needed a break. Now in our late 80s we don’t drive too far. We’ve always loved the Northamptonshire countryside. Springtime at its best with sunshine, lambs, birdsong, bluebells and lots of other spring wild flowers. Must not forget the lovely gated roads too, also our host Elaine, thank you so much.

Lovely cottage in a nice quiet location.

Owner was very welcoming and helpful.

A super place to stay.

A lovely setting which is quiet, relaxing, well equipped and built to a high standard. The host was excellent.

Elaine was kind and thoughtful.

She was very helpful and went out of her way to solve a problem that had occurred. She couldn’t have been more obliging.

Delightful property in a rural setting.

Our hosts at Highfield Farm were welcoming and friendly. Basic essentials plus cake were more than appreciated. The cottage was well equipped and very comfortable and met all our requirements. Couldn’t have wished for more except for some better weather! Great food at The Red Lion & The Countryman nearby. Can thoroughly recommend these two places. All in all a wonderful experience. Thank you once again.

A lovely cottage set in a rural location, a perfect base for visiting the local area.

Ideal for 2 people the cottage is spacious, comfortable and cosy. Warm welcome received on arrival with a lovely welcome pack in the cottage. We would definitely stay here again when visiting the area

We were very happy to stay on this quiet farm.

Apple Barn had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Parking was easy and our hosts welcomed us to the property. We would use this again.

The cottage was absolutely wonderful.

We appreciated the warm welcome from the owner especially the tea, coffee and milk she left us along with a lovely cake. We had everything we needed for a lovely holiday.

If you want to escape & enjoy the countryside Apple Barn is for you.

We had a very relaxing few days at Apple Barn, which had everything we needed. The cottage is well set out, clean and spacious, we enjoyed just sitting outside, it's so quiet and peaceful. The owners are so welcoming, thanks for the cake, tea, coffee & milk. We visited Stowe Gardens, Canon's Ashby, Blenheim Palace and had an excellent meal at the Red Lion at Helidon.

Apple Barn is a very well looked after property.

Clean, well appointed, comfy, cosy and warm (during our winter stay) The host Elaine welcomed us and kindly left milk and cake for our arrival. It is in a good location for a number of interesting towns and ideal for hiking. We would definitely recommended it.

We really enjoyed our stay at Apple Barn.

So much thought had gone into making a lovely little holiday home. It was so clean and had everything we needed. There is so much to do in the area and we were so lucky to get such gorgeous weather. The owner Elaine was kind to let us use their beautiful garden. She gave us a lovely cake and some fresh plums from a tree close by. Everything was just perfect and we hope to come again.

We had a lovely week in The Apple Barn.

The cottage was so clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. The farm is in a peaceful rural location and we did several walks from the door. We also visited two National Trust properties (Canons Ashby and Stowe Gardens).

Lovely place for two, immaculately presented.

Apple Barn cottage had everything we needed.

It was clean and nicely furnished was greeted with a Lemon Drizzle cake, tea, coffee, milk, sugar, washing up liquid, jcloth and scourer All these things were much appreciated. We found Elaine lovely friendly and helpful. If we came that way again we wouldn’t hesitate to rebook.

Wow just Wow!

What a fabulous location, accommodation & the very best host. Elaine is such a great host & the property is spotlessly clean, really well appointed in the most peaceful & wellbeing supporting location. The Welcome Lemon Drizzle cake is also a lovely touch. We stayed over an extended period of weeks whilst awaiting completion of of our new house move and Elaine & her family were so accommodating and thoughtful......the farm and the animals are terrific to observe and the whole set up is 5 Star ! Couldn't recommend it highly enough - make sure you pop down the road to The Red Lion for a bite in the next village of Helidon, it is a gastro treat & a really lovely pub!

Excellent accommodation with a very friendly owner who was very helpful

The Barn is a stylish, clean & cosy property and set In beautiful countryside/farm.

Our host was very welcoming too. We visited Althorp & Canon Ashby, both worth a visit and enjoyable. There is lots of places to visit in the surrounding areas. The local pub in Hallidon ‘ Red Lion’ serves good food. We had a very enjoyable & relaxed 4 night stay.

The Apple Barn is a little gem.

It is beautifully and thoughtfully presented with plenty of attention to detail. Even the knives for food preparation were sharp (a first for me in holiday cottages). The bed and bed linen are great. Also there were white towels and grey towels so you always knew you were using your own towel. We would have liked more instructions in the booklet about how to dispose of food waste, dry mixed recycling and general rubbish. We were working from home and there is not a lot of space for two work stations but it is a holiday cottage not a live/work space. The wifi connection was excellent. We would happily come again but if we did we would try to book one of the other two units as they have a better view and access to the garden. Neither were available for our dates which were a last minute booking after another owner had let us down by cancelling our stay. We feel very lucky to have been here in the peace and quiet.

Such a lovely cottage in a great location to explore Warwickshire and Oxfordshire.

Can not fault the property, very well equipped, clean and up to date. We had a lovely stay! Thank you Elaine!

The Apple Barn is a beautiful, cosy and comfortable place to spend some peace and quiet.

The hosts have thought of everything and even greeted us with a delicious lemon drizzle cake. I would happily go there again and can warmly recommend it. Completely perfect.
