Willow Barns Reviews

Emma
We had a lovely weekend at the barn. It’s actually much bigger than it seems in photosand it’s super well-equipped. The setting is so peacefuland the hot tub was just what we needed, even in November. Would definitely stay again!
Emily Carter
We really enjoyed our stay here! The place is super cosy, cleanand beautifully furnished. The spaciousness and the massive smart TV were definitely highlights. It’s a bit of a shame there’s no walking path into the fields directly from the propertyand the roads aren’t exactly safe for walking. A local farmer ploughs right to the edge of his field, which is a bit annoying, but the nearby country park in Colmworth is perfect for dogs and well worth a visit. We’d happily come back!
James
The cottage was charming and tucked away in a quiet spot, perfect for unwinding. The hot tub was fantasticand we loved listening to the birds. Highly recommend!
Sam
We had a fantastic time! The place was hugeand the hot tub was a real highlight. Perfect for dogs too. Just wish there was a washing machine! Would return.
Lucy
We had a lovely time staying here. The area is super peaceful and perfect for relaxing, plus it’s really close to the golf course which serves great, reasonably priced food. The barn had everything we neededand we especially appreciated the dishwasher tablets, hot tub towelsand comfy outdoor cushions. Only downside was the field wasn’t secure, so we couldn’t let our dog off the leadand one set of jets and lights in the hot tub weren’t working, but overall, a great stay!
James
Really impressed with the quality and finish, definitely planning to return soon!
Mark
The cottage is spacious and in a lovely spot, but the dark rooms and poor lighting make it feel quite gloomy. It definitely needs a refresh to bring out its true potential. Could be lovely!
James
Lovely peaceful spot, exactly what we were after, really nice vibe.
Emma J.
This place feels just like home, super cosy and spotless! The kitchen's got everything we needed for cookingand the garden’s stunning - perfect for our dog to run around. Honestly, we’d happily stay here again. Highly recommend!
Emma Carter
We stayed here during May half term and honestly, it was just what we needed. The garden and outdoor space were perfect for our two young boys and our dog - they loved running around freely. The hot tub was a real treat, even if one side's jets didn’t work, we still used it every day. Only downsides were the broken double glazing on the French doors, which meant we couldn’t enjoy the view properlyand the misted glass was a bit of a pain. Still, overall a lovely break!
Emma
The place was super cosy, in a stunning spotand the hot tub’s privacy made it even better!
Sophia
Spacious, comfyand spotless - perfect for a family break, we loved it!
James
Willow Barn is such a lovely spot for a break, we really enjoyed our stay and can't wait to return!
Jamie
We loved the peaceful spot, it was ideal for a chill getaway. The outdoor area was spot onand the hot tub really made our stay special. Graham’s support was great too!
Emma
Such a lovely cottage, beautifully decorated, super comfy, we really had a great time!
Sam
This converted barn was such a find! Spacious, quirkyand really charming. We’ll definitely be coming back for more getaways. The owners are super friendly and made us feel right at home.
Emma
Honestly, we expected a bit more for the price. The place is spacious and in a nice spot, which is a plus. But Wi-Fi kept dropping outand the streaming services just wouldn't work no matter what we tried. The rooms are quite dark even with all the lights onand it looks like it hasn’t been thoroughly cleaned in a while-lots of cobwebs and dust. If it was a lot cheaper, we might not mind so much, but for what we paid, it’s just not worth it. Such a shame really!
Emma
The cottage was really lovelyand we appreciated all the amenities. It’s a bit of a trek to shops and places to eat, but the paddock and shady front made up for it. Watching the wildlife was a real treat-we’d come back!
Emma
We absolutely loved our stay! The cottage was perfect-super comfy, great locationand the hot tub was a real highlight. Thanks so much!
James
Cozy place, but it feels a bit too dim inside.

Old Dairy Farm Country Shopping and Craft Centre - LE14 3PF

From shopping to home cooked refreshments this is a wonderful day out in the pretty village of Upper Stowe.  You can enjoy amazing views over the Northamptonshire countryside and wander around the complex of stone built farm buildings.  Each building houses something different such as the Occasions Florist, Itsy Bitsy Gifts, Hayrack Gallery and Sheer Delights Lingerie.  When it's time for a rest the Barn Restaurant and Tea Room is the place to go.  There is a small selection of animals at the centre too which younger children will love.  They currently have two Kune Kune pigs, sheep, hens and ducks.  If you are looking for upmarket holiday accommodation in the Northamptonshire area then the luxury lodges at Wicksteed Park are sure to impress.
