This breath-takingly beautiful five-bedroom, five-bathroom detached holiday barn is in a secluded Cotswold valley on a small, family run farm in the tiniest of hamlets, with only the sounds of nature and rural life to keep you company. This 300-year-old barn has been lovingly renovated by the owners - whose family have farmed the surrounding land for over 220 years - to create a spacious, superbly comfortable and welcoming holiday home with a glorious garden and fabulous views. The barn is in the perfect location to easily explore the Cotswolds villages, towns and countryside, including Cheltenham, Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold and the Gloucestershire Way.

Wonderful stay!

We were a gathering of uni friends from the 1980s, celebrating our 60th birthdays staying at the delightful Tom's Barn. This is a beautiful, spacious and homely barn conversion, providing a comfortable, well equipped, warm and tranquil home for the weekend. Clive and Lydia (hosts) were welcoming and at hand if needed. Their Devon Closewool ewes were lambing and this brought joy to the occasion, along with a visit to their farm shop on Saturday morning which has a variety of woven woollen garments, naturally dyed yarn and blankets, as well as home produced lamb, beef and vegetables for sale. Lots of walks nearby, with a lovely garden and patio for alfresco dining. A thoroughly relaxing and splendid place to spend our reunion. We hope to visit again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tom's Barn - the hosts couldn't have been more helpful, the location was perfect for visiting nearby attractions such as the Cotswold Farm Park and Crocodiles of the World, and the accommodation itself was wonderful. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and the welcome pack was very much appreciated, we loved the huge dining table where we were all able to eat together and the living room space was thoughtfully split so that the younger children could play in the snug area while the grown ups enjoyed a cup of tea in peace. The beds were very comfortable and the plentiful bathrooms were clean. The best part for our family was being alongside a working farm - the chickens that came to the kitchen window every morning hoping for grain, the newborn calf in the barn opposite, and the sights and sounds of the unspoilt countryside were a joy. Thank you very much to the hosts for a wonderful stay.

Beautiful barn in a lovely setting in the countryside with good pubs only a short walk away. Perfectly equipped for large groups and our hosts Lydia and Clive were always accommodating and helpful. Highly recommend.

We had an amazing 3 night weekend at Toms Barn in November. We were a group of 10 adults and a tiny baby, gathered to celebrate a 70th birthday. The location of the house is lovely, in a quiet hamlet surrounded by fields and small lanes, perfect for country walking. The accommodation was perfect for our group. The house was lovely and warm, beautifully finished with wood and stone. We did all our own catering and the large kitchen with huge dining table was very well equipped and ideal for preparing and eating our meals. The living room with log burner was very cozy and a great space for gathering together. The only possible improvement is that there could have been a couple more comfortable chairs in there to seat 10 adults easily. Bedrooms were very comfortable and having a bathroom for each made it so luxurious. We would definitely like to return.

Though difficult to find Tom’s Barn was an excellent rural location. The hosts were friendly and welcoming without being intrusive. The facilities and the Barn were ideal for our group. The only slight negative was the size of the fifth bedroom, but the overall layout and cleanliness were excellent.

Immaculately clean, super well equipped and very spacious barn conversion. Welcome tray and fresh flowers were a lovely touch. Beautiful furniture and quality fixtures and fittings. Very comfortable beds. Huge dining kitchen and lounge areas. Ample dining and socialising space in the garden, ample onsite parking . The hosts were throughly delightful, interesting and informative. We can’t wait to come back to this lovely 5* accommodation. Thank you for your hospitality.

Great sized accommodation suitable for a large family group. Very spacious and loads of bathrooms.

Beautiful tranquil location.

Note it is a charcoal BBQ not a gas BBQ as stated but Lydia was very apologetic and brought charcoal along.

Lots of wildlife and inquisitive chickens.

Some may say the dark wooden furniture would could enhance the barn if it was lighter/ more modern but others may say it suits the period property.

Extremely well stocked kitchen.

A great holiday

Great house which has everything we needed in kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms and sitting room. Lovely walks straight from the front door. Stayed there with a group of friends, we’ve been away together twice a year for 35yrs so we’ve seen lots of different properties. This is one of the best!

An incredible long weekend away with family.
The barn is on Lower Hampen Farm, with beautiful countryside views and donkeys, sheep and chickens on the farm. We also saw newborn lambs which made our weekend!
Clive and Lydia are lovely, and the little farm shop selling Lydia’s bags and blankets, as well as their honey and other farm produce, was lovely too. The pictures don’t do this place justice.
The barn house is lovely and very well equipped.
Great location for walks from the barn, as well as visiting neighbouring Cotswold villages - we went to Stow on the Wold (10min drive), Bourton on the Water (15 mins) Broadway (40min)and Chipping Campden (30min).
Would highly recommend and definitely will return!

Excellent Barn, idyllic and picturesque with all the facilities you would want.

Visited with my family (6 adults and 3 children) for my 40th Birthday, and still had plenty of room.

Great location and set in a beautiful farm with animals which the kids loved, just wished we stayed longer!!

We will definitely be returning as soon as possible!!

We stayed as a 3 generation family and all loved the stay.

The kids enjoyed seeing the animals, with the chickens peering through the kitchen door and the donkeys being walked past to the field next door.

We were all impressed with the conversion of the barn and the space it provided. The snug being slightly aside from the main living room was great to give the kids some space, with their own TV and yet for them to be close by and included in the wider group.

Having a bathroom per bedroom was also great when 10 people are getting ready in the morning!

We would happily return to stay in the future.

We varied in age between 9 and 75. We checked on Google maps for a route from South Wales. I missed the house first time. The barn suited us very well, equipment in kitchen was good, beds comfortable. The position is outstanding with animals free roaming , peace and quiet. We booked 3 nights, families departed Sunday after 2. The owner came to check that all was well. I had a lovely time .

Tom's Barn was perfect for our family get together. Very comfortable, beautifully clean and of good quality. Having a bathroom for every bedroom was a big plus and one of the reasons we chose Toms Barn.
Quite a distance from food shops so we took supplies with us.
Only have one question, who was Tom?

We had such a wonderful stay at Tom’s Barn. Clive and Lydia were such great hosts, so kind and helpful. The barn was immaculately clean when we arrived, with beautiful fresh flowers and so well equipped, still feeling spacious and comfortable even with 9 of us in the property. The chickens kept us well entertained and I would thoroughly recommend this barn to anyone looking for somewhere peaceful in a lovely part of the Cotswolds!

Highly recommend this large barn for a family exploration of the Cotswolds.
Short distance from Cheltenham, Cotswolds Farm Park and lovely villages. Pretty remote, but beautiful surroundings.
Immaculate property with lots of space for kids to run around inside and out.
Clive & Lydia were very personable.



Toms barn is a fabulous spot for a large family gathering and relaxing holiday.

Toms barn is a great holiday let with great facilities and comfortable large social areas. Each bedroom has its own bathroom/en-suite. Also there are two bedrooms on the ground floor which are great, suited to those who may struggle to climb the stairs.
The owners are super friendly and the location is well suited to both cheltenham and the fabulous Cotswolds!
