Beautiful Cotswold Farmhouse set in 50 acres

A wonderful 19th century Cotswold farmhouse restyled for 21st century living in a setting to take your breath away. WiFi, Freeview, home cinema, log fires and a jacuzzi bath will tempt you as much as the big outdoors where you can laze in hammocks, BBQ till dawn or just enjoy your own private meadows and woods. For an additional charge, you can also enjoy our beautiful outdoor hot-tub which comes with ambient-lighting and music. Whatever you are planning, the farmhouse will help make it special.

There is an outdoor pizza oven and BBQ which is free for you to use. And the icing on the cake? All power and heating is generated from our own on-site renewable resources!

The Farmhouse is 500m from the nearest road with intervening woodland which makes it blissfully remote so you can be as quiet or as noisy as you like. Children and pets can run and explore to their heart’s content – as can grown-ups too! Overspill accommodation can be made available and caravans or camping is also possible (additional charges would apply). RAF Brize Norton airbase is about 3 miles away so some air traffic should be expected – and enjoyed too!

There is around 50 acres of meadows and woodland for you to explore! Dry-stone walled garden with pergola, patio, dining tables and chairs for 12 people. BBQ. Fields for football, cricket, boules, or whatever you fancy. Tree shaded areas near house and more extensive woodland 200m away. Simply stunning views that stretch for 20 miles to the south. Space for more cars than you could possibly bring!

Utility Room:
Green central heating from our biomass & hot water boiler, Bosch washing machine, drying facilities, sink.

Cleaning / Towels / Linen / Maid service:
Towels & linen are included. Property is cleaned weekly at changeover. A cook/housekeeper is available as a separate contract.

Other:
Dining room – stunning travertine marble dining table with seating for 10 (12 possible) with Denby dinner service for 12, oak sideboard.
Conservatory – 7-seater corner sofa, coat & boot storage, beautiful views!

The outdoor hot tub is available for an additional charge

Large outdoor events (up to 75 people) can also be accommodated with an additional charge - please contact us for details.

I will be contactable through Airbnb or by phone and email during your stay to give you any assistance and answer any questions you may have.

Beautiful quiet country retreat for a group of friends
The photos really don't do the sheer tranquility of the settinf justice. Total isolation in the cotswolds, beautiful surrounding scenery. The house is nice if not new spec on all the funishings, but the real win is the location and the setting. Perfect for our group of friends who wanted to relax and stay up late drinking and chatting and enjoyinf the hot tub. But I'd also come back with my family any day of the week. If you do stay, check out the Rose and Crown in Shilton for a great meal.

We have just had a wonderful 6 night stay for Christmas. The house was amazing, very homely, warm, and lots of space for all the visiting extended family. The kitchen had a ridiculous amount of pots, pans, cutlery, crockery, wine glasses etc, great for catering for the large family. Hot tub was fabulous on the cold starry nights, and we were kept warm by the log fire in the evenings. The location was quiet and peaceful and felt safe with 3 young children. Would love to stay again. Thank you!

Wonderful accommodation with peaceful surroundings!
Stayed for the weekend for a hen do. Had a fantastic time, Tad (the owner) was very helpful throughout process and on check in. Property was lovely, perfect for big groups. Pizza oven and BBQ were great and eating outdoors under the pergola was wonderful. Lovely grounds and beautifully quiet. We enjoyed the hot tub at night under the stars. A great weekend all around; would totally recommend!

Superb stay in the Cotswolds
As a family we get together every year, during May half term, and Kencot Hill Farmhouse is by far the best house we have stayed in thus far. The house is perfectly situated within a short driving distance to many attractions such as the Cotswold Wildlife Park and it is also only a stones throw from the beautiful village of Burford. The grounds attached to the house are vast and our dogs and children had much fun in exploring them. Never before have we stayed in a house where you can just open the gate and have so many walks on the door step. It was also fantastic to see herds of deer in the grounds along with its other vast array of wildlife. The house has all you need for a weeks holiday and is certainly well equipped. The pizza oven was a huge bonus and we thoroughly enjoyed cooking in it several times.

It really is special!
What a truly wonderful stay at Kencot Hill Farmhouse. We wanted to find somewhere that could accommodate a large gathering comfortably, be a safe place for children to roam freely and of course have the pleasures of a holiday such as the pizza oven, outdoor speakers and a hot tub. And this place delivered. Great communication with Tad and Liz throughout the planning and booking process and the house was extremely accommodating with small things such as crockery, plenty of towels and just the little things that sometimes get forgotten. We would all highly recommend staying here and would love to come back again in the future.

I hired the farmhouse for a hen party weekend of 10 people. The house is a great size with plenty of room and all the amenities you could want. The location is beautiful and with no neighbours keeping the noise down really isn’t a issue. We hired the hot tub and with the Bluetooth sound system it was lots of fun, sitting in the hot tub at night star gazing was stunning. Tad the owner was very accommodating on a few requests we made prior to our stay. I would absolutely recommend staying here.

Fantastic property with everything you need!
We had a great weekend in this property. It is sometimes hard to find properties for large single set groups, but this was ideal. It is set in 50 acres so you don't need to worry about the neighbour's and it is so well equipped to ensure you have a fantastic stay, for example there is a big cupboard full of towels for the hot tub in the utility room, the kitchen has plenty of crockery, glasses, serving bowls, decent knives etc. There was nothing we needed that we couldn't find (and all in a logical place). The bedrooms are great and all have lots of space, the upstairs bedroom with a double and a sofa bed is really two rooms. Ideal for several families or big groups. There is a big, well maintained hot tub with lots of outside lighting around it and in the trees, and places to sit next to it, making it really sociable. You can go on some nice walks from the property and it has it's own woodland to explore. Tad, the owner, was very welcoming & great at communicating with us prior to our stay. If you are considering a stay here I would recommend you do it - you won't be disappointed!

A stunning property in an ideal location
This place looked great on the website and was even better when we arrived. Tad the owner was on site to meet and greet all the family and 3 dogs. We felt comfortable right away with the tour of the house and grounds. And what a house it is. Superb rooms throughout for 10, plenty of rooms to spend time in. All of which are highly decorated and equipped with everything we needed. The grounds are perfect for dogs and thanks Tad for taking on the 3 dogs (rabbits not so slow btw). The garden area was perfect for family boules and wine sessions. The only problem with it was ...... not doing a full week. The location was spot on for Burford, Bourton and Stow as well as ideal for early morning cycling. I no doubt assume we will all want to return. Tad was also kind enough to go to the trouble of posting back a foot pump we'd left behind. Thank you for a great stay sir

Good place for a family gathering
The house is lovely, very well equipped and comfy, with loads of towels for the hot tub, which was wonderful. We were a large party of 12 and filled the property but there was more than enough room for us all. It is quite difficult to find as it is set on its own in the middle of the countryside. The site itself is interesting with an old disused runway close by and a large field of solar panels. It is however very quiet and we saw different wildlife, rabbits, red kites and deer during the course of our stay.

Brilliant property, exactly as advertised.
Took the farm to get all the immediate family together for a 60th birthday. Absolutely what we needed, loads of space for the grandkids, and the big kids and even the oldies! Good pubs nearby, and in easy reach of Burford. Just round the corner from the Cotswold wildlife park, although we didn't go as we had Zimbabwean cousins with us. One very minor grumble, the hay meadow next to the farmhouse had not yet been harvested so the space for some serious kite flying was a bit limited. On the plus side seeing the new F35, 2 Typhoons and the Red Arrows as they formed up for Fairford was awesome. All-in-all an absolutely brilliant venue for a superb weekend get together.

Very comfortable but not 'precious', well equipped, fantastic location.
Amazing family weekend much enjoyed by all ages. Grandchildren aged from 10 years to 10 months had a whale of a time playing rounders, cricket, bike riding and exploring the woods. Adults much enjoyed the hot tub, barbecue, sitting round the fire until the early hours. Because there are no other properties nearby you can be as noisy or as peaceful as you like! Wonderful 70th celebration!!
