I have wanted to stay at Carp Farm where Herons Nest is located for sometime. They have small campervan site within the grounds but it has always been full. Having stayed at Herons Nest I understand why. This is a piece of Heaven....really. The cottage, the balcony, the location,the walks, Bourton on the Water, the surrounding area all stunning. Carp farm is magical. Herons Cottage is beautiful.One of the best places we have ever stayed.
