  On booking the property no warning no visitors allowed on the property.

  found out after paying the non refundable fee. booked for 10 nights for 6 adults. when i was able to speak to the owner I made it clear as i booked the property for my family visiting from cyprus I would be visiting. I also informed her that they would be arriving very late early morning and I would be waiting for them the owner assured me that was no problem. Originally I was expecting 7 of them I would wait for them to take one of them to my house. 6 arrived plus my son who helped them to find their way from the airport. He had his own car and left shortly to go to his own house. They arrived later than expected due to bad weather at about 2am that is 6 adults with 12 suitcases. Next day a text from the owner complaining that the quests next door were awaken and complained. Also a rude reminder that only 6 quest sleep on the property. I assumed that they have cameras on the driveway and saw me leaving on my own. I answered to her texts when i spoke to her she said it was the noise when they arrived not any noise when in the property. 6 adults, 12 suitcases gravel driveway and the 2 properties very close together. The property on first glance is very beautiful and very clean. The log burner one of the reasons I booked it, some wood ready to use when I asked for more I was told I could buy it locally I foolishly assumed that was included to the price. Despite our best efforts not all radiators were working the main one in the lounge they came and repaired it when I told them but in my opinion that should have been checked before my family's arrival. Very low water pressure in both bathrooms shower in the ensuite in need of repair as shower head is floppy. I had informed the owner that my family would not be in the property for 2 nights on return we found out she had come into the house and turned down the heading my family returned again to a cold house. Some extra wood would have been nice for the savings she made as no use of power and water. No instructions were left in the property. My family all adults very respectful of the property. They left no rubbish, tidy up did not strip the beds. I will not be booking again this property,

  We loved our long weekend at The Linhay.

  Many thanks for the bottle of Prosecco and chocolates from us, and a woof from Rollo for the little chews. We were lucky with the weather for November and got in some walks along the Ridgeway to Uffington White Horse and Weyland's Smithy and in the woods at Badbury (Rollo’s favourite). And then came back to a cosy warm cottage with wood burner (husband’s favourite) and supper (kitchen well supplied with the equipment I needed) The beds were very comfortable, I particularly liked the upstairs bedroom with the sloping eaves. The cottage was beautifully decorated with some special touches, Rollo was a bit puzzled by the dog he kept seeing in the massive mirror in the living room! There was a Waitrose, Aldi and Esso just a mile up the road towards Faringdon which was very handy. And the cottage was easy to get to from the M4. A very pleasant retreat away from the fireworks for our dog, just a few moos in the morning from nearby cattle and I’m sure I heard some owls too

  We had a wonderful 9 day holiday stay over Christmas at The Linhay.

  The barn is as beautiful, light and big in size as shown in the pictures. The bedrooms are fabulous looking and super cosy. The family bathroom quirky with fabulous wallpaper and an amazing bathtub and the shower room great. The kitchen is well equipped, the bedding warm and fluffy and everywhere are lovey details, be it the pictures on the wall, the amazing mirrors all over the property the blankets and cushions, the fabulous log burner or in our case the beautiful Christmas tree. Attention to detail everywhere. I was so pleased to be able to bring my dog, as there was a little garden and some space where he could roam out front. The barn is at one end of a beautiful Cotswold village adjacent to beautiful country walks. Also a perfect spot to explore the Cotswolds from the north east. The owners were attentive and kind and catered to our needs which was amazing. Definitely a place I would highly recommend and I would return to.

  The Cottage was lovely, very clean and tidy with excellent facilities and so close to the town of Chipping Norton with its shops and many eating places and a very central place to travel to all areas that the Cotswolds have to offer.

  The garden was a bonus and although it was lovely for it to be a wild garden with lots of lovely flowers, the pathway could do with the plants being trimmed so that they didn't "attack" you when you walked to the front door. The plants surrounding the patio area could also do with a trim, as if there had been four of us it would have been a bit of a squeeze to sit and although the higher bushes gave privacy, they could have been cut down a little to allow for the evening sunshine to come onto the patio. Please be aware that the en-suite in the main bedroom doesn't have a toilet, this was completely my fault as I obviously didn't read the information properly, I was still taken aback when I walked in to just find a shower and sink. We would definitely stay at this cottage again.

  A pleasent cottage and location, i enjoyed my stay and appreicated the level of cleanliness as well as some support given by the property manager locating the cutlery draw (hidden in a secret draw to the left of the kitchen sink) !

  The property is well specked, clean and the linen of good quality. To note, the tv didn't seem to have much channel access, including even the basic 5; though i was able to sync my mobile phone with it's screen via wifi and access programmes streamed to it via my phone. For those who suffer from Sleep Apnoea or snoring issues, the bed pillows are excessivley stuffed with foam meaning they wont support your head, leaving one's neck at a 45 degree sleeping angle. You should bring your own or i advise the cottage provide a spare theraputic pillow or reduce the stuffing in the top layered set of pillows. We had to retort to using the spare towels as pillows ! But that said, we still had a good time at the house.
