Brook Barn is situated on the outskirts of a small, Oxfordshire village, 25 minutes from Oxford, 30 minutes from the Cotswolds and just over an hour from Bath, Cheltenham and London.
Up until a few years ago, the guest House was two barns, incorporating stables, a bullpen and a hayloft. The barns have now been converted into a stunning family home retaining many of the original beams.
The sitting room has a double-height ceiling with large French windows that open up onto the Mediterranean garden on one side and out to Letcombe Brook on the other. In the summer, with all the doors open, the sitting room becomes part of the garden. Equally inviting in winter, the huge fireplace and the under-floor heating make it a wonderfully cosy room in which to sit and relax.
The library is on the first floor and looks out over the sitting room. It is a fabulous area where you can hide yourself away to read magazines, the papers or a good book.
Brook Barn has a games room and an office for guests? use, with a fax machine, a printer, a copier/scanner and a computer.
The gardens have the stunning Letcombe Brook running through them, with benches and chairs thoughtfully positioned for guests to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the Oxfordshire countryside. For those who want to be more energetic there are various outdoor activities on offer including a walk along The Ridgeway, which is nearby.These beautifully converted barns offer 5-star accommodation, with a fabulous mix of traditional romantic charm, modern style and state-of-the-art comforts, including free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs.
The AA has awarded Brook Barn the coveted 'Highly Commended 5 Yellow Stars' for guest accommodation, along with their Eggcup and Pie award for 'very special breakfasts and dinners'.
Brook Barn is a wonderful, relaxing hideaway in over an acre of gardens. The gardens include an orchard, a wild flower meadow and a beautiful chalk stream. The Mediterranean garden features a luxurious hot tub.
The rooms are beautifully but simply decorated and extremely comfortable with Egyptian cotton bed linen and towels, TVs with Freeview or Sky satellite channels and CD/DVD players.
Beautifully appointed and equipped to the highest standards, Brook Barn offers all the advantages of a chic, high-class boutique hotel with the informality and great-value prices of a bed and breakfast.
