  • "We had a lovely stay at this beautiful cottage."

    Although the weather was cold, it was very comfortable. The cottage is on perfect driving distance from the Cotswolds and places like Gloucester or Oxford.

    Very comfy bed, facilities were perfect for us. Being pet friendly was great as the surrounding area was ideal. We would certainly return and would recommend it.

  • "I was delighted with my stay at the Granary on High Cogges farm."

    It was wonderful to have a cool bedroom even though the temperature outside was HOT. The accommodation has a bedroom and bathroom downstairs with the living accommodation and kitchen on the floor above. Everything was very clean and well presented and the EV charger was an added advantage for me. There was ample parking available close to the Granary. There was ample crockery, cutlery, cookware and glasses. The hosts were very helpful and I will definitely be returning.

    I’m so pleased you managed to stay cool in the heatwave! We hadn’t anticipated that advantage of the bedroom being on the ground floor for hotter weather. See you again! Property Owner

    Great mix of 17th century old with new and modern .Added bonus of your own small wood to explore . Good base to visit the Cotswolds.

  • "Nice quiet location."

    Witney is a 30 minute walk away and there's a nice pub 20 minutes walk away. The accommodation is unique, very tidy. The WiFi is a bit iffy, and electronic signals in the area generally patchy. But that aside, there are some nice walks locally and it's certainly worth a visit.

  • "Thanks so much for everything."

    I have totally fallen in love with your little Slice of the world. Without doubt one of the best places I’ve had the pleasure of staying in. This beautiful conversion has managed to maintain the integrity and rustic charm of the original features and general feel of the space whilst also utilising ultra modern design. The result is a warm and cosy, sleek and bright and joyful place to be. The surrounding countryside offers constantly changing light and colours and the floor to ceiling windows give you the feeling of being in amongst it at the same time as being wrapped in a warm blanket on the sofa. I just cannot sing the praises of this special place enough. Just please don’t take up too many dates as I’d like to keep rather a lot of availability for myself.

    What a lovely review. It’s so rewarding to know that The Granary was such a positive home for you during your stay.. To know that effort to plan the conversion carefully has been appreciated makes us very happy. Thank you. We will hope to see you again! Property Owner

    Super cosy and styled really well. Such a nice vibe. Loved learning about the history of the building and the surrounding farm and meeting the owners. They were really friendly and welcoming. Such a nice touch with the milk, eggs and chocolate too. The Mason Arms down the road was a treat. Will like to stay again with friends and book the adjoining Cartshed building as that looks beautiful too. Would really recommend. Hope to be back again soon

  • "Beautifully set up, The Granary is a perfect hideaway."

    I arrived exhausted and ready for a proper break, and that’s exactly what I got! With lovely farm shops, pubs and restaurants nearby, you’re able to explore, read, rest and enjoy the scenery. My top recommendation would be The Horseshoes in Witney, a beautiful restaurant with lovely, relaxed service.

    That is so nice to hear! We are glad you had such a good rest when needed. Property Owner

  • "We have stayed in many 4/5 star cottages over the years and this was the first one without a dishwasher."

    So, no dishwasher, no wardrobes not even any coat hangers. Also there was a constant buzzing from a heat source pump in the bedroom. We don't think it comes up to a 5 rating.

    We are very sorry that you did not feel The Granary met the 5 star rating. The property listing does inform you that there is no dishwasher as we appreciate that not having one is not to all tastes. A dishwasher wasn’t fitted as it was not architecturally advised to fit one in a compact listed building like this without compromising the living space. We are also very sorry that you were disturbed by a constant buzzing noise, we would have been very happy to investigate if we had have known. The only previous instance of this being reported to us was when the bathroom extractor fan was left switched on. (We did deliberately site the heat pump 10m away from The Granary, behind another building so it can’t be the culprit). I have confirmed with the last guest that they did not have a noise issue, which is reassuring to us. We must apologise that the set of coat hangers normally in The Granary were missing and had not been replaced; we have rectified this now Property Owner

  • "Excellent accomodation, great base for exploring oxfordshire and the Cotswolds."

    Very clean with everything we needed. My only polite suggestion is a rail to hang damp towels after showering - we were hanging them over chairs/tables to dry off.

    Hello, I've had a good check over and we have now got some more hooks installed in the bedroom, and the beams have some nails on that could be used for hanging if those are in full use. Hopefully that should be helpful. The underfloor heating usually ensures that things dry out quite quickly. Property Owner

  • "The only slight issue was the advertised fast broadband."

    As the TV relied on Internet connection, this did not work effectively and even standard free view channels either could not be watched or were unavailable as the signal was not strong enough. Otherwise, the cottage was lovely, ideal for 2 people and well furnished. The surrounding area is a lovely place to visit.

    Hello, I'm sorry that your viewing was hampered! We've made some changes to the connections and things are working well now, we'll keep an eye on it, and guest feedback is a vital way of finding out if it remains tempermental. Thank you for telling us. Property Owner

    They have thought of everything , I loved the fresh cut flowers in the windows and the eggs and milk on arrival...the chocolate with the welcome pack were all very nice touches. The property is well situated and lots of attractions were a 10 to 20 minute drive away. I must mention the Mason Arms about a mile down the road...served us one of the best meals out that we have ever had.
