Lovely little property on the edge of the Cotswolds

Well equipped kitchen and amazing shower! We liked that we had the little outdoor space to ourselves (where we could see fields of crops and horses!). Great location for exploring some of the Cotswold towns. Carterton has a range of takeaway places if you're not keen on cooking whilst away (and 3!! supermarkets). The suggested walk across the fields to Shilton was lovely, we were just annoyed we forgot to take any money so we couldn't have a pint in the pub when we got there. Beds were very soft, except the sofa bed, which was really comfy (which is not always the case with a sofa bed). We liked that the bedroom had twin beds (instead of a double) though which made our break as three friends nicer.

Lovely place surrounded by gorgeous fields!

Lovely place. The postcode led me into the town of Carterton so make sure you follow the location given on the VRBO map. Lovely cosy barn just the right size for two people. We had a nice weekend with everything we needed. Location is great, quiet and close to lovely bustling Cotswolds towns. Would recommend and I hope to visit again!

Weekend break

Fabulous location, and property. Only slight concern was that from the listing we thought it was two bedrooms. (We are not together as partners), but we overcame it for a lovely weekend. Thank you.

Great place to stay

We stayed for two nights and couldn’t fault the white owl barn. It’s a lovely place to stay and is equipped with everything you need. Perfect for a quiet break and good location for visiting the Cotswolds. Jean’s communication before our stay was great and if we find ourselves in the area again we would definitely book here.

Great location break

Good accommodation, great location for cotswold visits . Had a little trouble finding property as satnav took us toward town centre based on postcode. No direct way to contact home owner. Had to go through home away.
