Beauty in the country

This was a fabulous launching place for our English countryside visit! The house itself is teeming with history and is beautiful inside and out. The location was perfect to make day trips to Bath, and the Cotswolds. We would 100% stay here again.

Cotswolds stop

We loved the farmhouse. It was larger than expected. We found it easy to drive around the Cotswolds and do hikes. Sadly. The local pubs stopped serving food Sunday by 6:30-7 pm and were not open Monday.

Great place to stay.

Wonderful place to meet up - we had a special friends reunion mid week break. Everything as described, beautifully decorated, tasteful but homely. Well equipped kitchen and cosy sitting room with dining table. Lovely to be able to light the wood burner after a days walking. Nice to bump into the host and hear all about the property’s history. Would highly recommend for a relaxing break.

Rest & Relax!

A beautiful property, equipped with everything we needed. Very comfortable beds with quality bed linen. Kitchen has everything you could want! Made good use of the log burner so very cosy in the living room. Lovely private gardens and short walk into the village to shops/pubs. Welcome pack was gratefully received!! Many thanks Justin & Louise, you have a really lovely property which we thoroughly enjoyed staying at.

Senior girls stay

We were 4 ladies on a weekend away, there was more than enough room. the cottage was much larger than we expected and there was ample room for 6. I would describe this cottage as robust and not precious, where you don't have to worry constantly about the home or its contents, perfect for smaller children. There was lots in the kitchen, everything we needed, although there is no freezer other than an ice box. The bedrooms were large and warm. You can walk into the village and find a pub with very good food and a grocery shop plus a takeaway. Everything was smooth and no issues. A lovely large traditional farmhouse cottage.

Fantastic house all round

This house is beautiful and feels like a home from home. The village is gorgeous, and is a perfect base to explore the beautiful countryside of Wiltshire. We loved sitting in the garden with the log burner at night. A perfect house :)

Lovely home away from home

The house was exactly as advertised with the wonderful charm of living in an English village home but with all modern comforts. Everyone was thankful for the wifi and being able to do laundry was very helpful. My son who runs college cross country loved finding different 7-9 mile runs every evening and came home delighted with the views. We all enjoyed the closeness to the coop and the pub. It was a great to be able to have breakfast each morning and set off on each day's journey knowing we were coming back to an inviting home and a comfortable bed. We have had nothing but great memories and would definite stay at your lovely home again. Thank you so much the O'Keefes

Quirky Farmhouse

Several problems were insurmountable, and we took most of the week to learn how to live with other foibles. The owner said "It is what it is", and we enjoyed the location if not the property.

Gorgeous Family Friendly Home

The home is well appointed and comfortable. It was easy to settle in and the beds and bedding were divine. We stayed for three nights and wished we had booked longer. Waking to birdsong was lovely and the kids enjoyed the large yard. Cooking was a dream in the lovely kitchen, but there are two fabulous pubs within an easy walk. The post office cafe was great and both the deli and the co-op provide shopping. Walking the church grounds at sunset is a must.

Great FARM HOUSE in a very nice village

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Westfield Farmhouse Albourne and enjoyed being a part of the village for a week, particulary over the Christmas period. Both Justin and Louise were very friendly and helpful hosts. The village had 2 great pubs, an excellent convenience store and Marlborough was a great town nearby. Thank you for our stay
