The Hay Barn is a beautifully appointed barn conversion set on an equine stud farm in the heart of the Gloucestershire countryside, within easy reach of the Cotswolds. Retaining many original features complemented by modern comforts and chic interiors, it offers exceptional holiday accommodation for a family, couple, or group of friends looking to explore this lovely part of the world.
At the heart of the home is a spacious open-plan living area, thoughtfully furnished with a blend of contemporary and vintage pieces that create an eclectic yet welcoming feel. The kitchen has smart blue cabinetry, marble-effect worktops, and statement lighting, all working harmoniously with the stone-tiled floor and exposed brickwork. Fully equipped with modern appliances, it’s a joy to cook here, with a breakfast island for casual dining or chatting over a glass of wine as dinner is prepared.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a gorgeous farmhouse-style dining table, positioned beside patio doors that open directly onto the garden. There’s plenty of space for everyone to gather together and enjoy meals while taking in the views across the farm and the rolling countryside beyond, as you plan the next day’s adventures.
The cosy sitting area, tucked under the stairs, offers a range of comfortable seating, including a fabulous statement-print armchair. It’s perfectly designed for a family board game, a relaxed evening with a film, or simply unwinding after a day out. Dogs are more than welcome at The Hay Barn, with thoughtful extras provided including dog beds, toys, and treats, alongside a generous welcome hamper including fresh flowers for human guests too.
On the ground floor you’ll find a beautiful king-size bedroom with doors opening directly onto a patio, a lovely spot to enjoy a morning coffee as the farm comes to life and watch the horses running in the surrounding fields. A stylish shower room completes the ground floor, with fluffy bathrobes and toiletries included. With easy access throughout, this level is well suited to guests with limited mobility.
Upstairs, the elegant master bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom, complete with a stunning freestanding bath for indulgent soaks, and a spacious walk-in shower for a refreshing start to the day. Both bedrooms have been designed with comfort firmly in mind, with well-chosen furnishings, deep mattresses, and high-quality linens.
Outside, a second patio has sun loungers and a fire pit where you can enjoy toasting marshmallows as the sun sets over the fields. There’s also a covered outdoor dining area with ample seating and a gas barbecue, allowing you to enjoy al fresco meals whatever the weather. To complete your magical farm stay experience, a covered hot tub, festooned with twinkling lights, invites you to relax in the bubbles well into the night.
