Great place to spend time in the Cotswolds

Heath Farm Holiday Cottages is a great place to spend a holiday. We stayed in Chestnut which was very well appointed. A big bonus was the wonderful country view from the hot tub. Friendly owners and staff were always available to assist. Close to many wonderful walks and places to visit.

Always brilliant

We’ve been coming to Heath Farm for five years now and always enjoy our stay immensely whichever cottage we stay in. It is so wonderfully nurturing and walks around the woods and down by the pond are relaxing and so peaceful.

really lovely accommodation in beautiful Cotswolds!

Heath Farm is lovely! Chestnut is a beautiful accommodation: spacious, cosy, well equipted, beautiful furnished with lovely details of quality craftsmanship. Chestnut comes with a private garden with view at the lake and sunset. The jacuzzi was perfect to relax after long walks in The Cotswolds. We will visit Heath Farm again, for sure!

Dickens Golden Wedding weekend

Everything was brilliant. We booked the whole site for the weekend- 10 adults & 12 children. So much to do - wonderful games facilities & equipment. We had our own sports day & also played rounders , football, cricket, & croquet. Mon very kindly set up a huge slippy slide for us ( blessed with hot weather) Then we also had the hot tubs, & the lake for fishing, paddleboarding, boating & swimming.

A wonderful stay at Heath Farm

We had a wonderful stay at Heath Farm. The hosts were fantastic. We stayed in Chestnut which was beautiful and very comfortable. Well stocked kitchen. The place was very clean and had everything we needed to make our stay perfect. The welcome pack was a nice touch and the cakes from the bakers on site was device. The grounds and surrounding areas are a pleasure to walk around, just be mindfull of the main road, it can get busy. We will definitely return.

A perfect location to recharge!

Just wow! Beautiful location and a property that has everything you could wish for. Cozy, luxury, beautiful. Incredible views from the hot tub, and then time to curl up on the sofa in front of the fire. The little touches like bedding choice, cake, flowers and milk make it extra special. Thank you!

Wedding Weekend Bonanza

We had our wedding here so all the cottages were booked out for the family. Everyone was taken aback by the care and attention paid to every detail. The cottages were a delight - cosy, quiet, comfortable Everyone at the wedding said they’d be looking in to booking their own weekend away at Heath Farm; it’s immaculate and so are all the cottages.

Wonderful stay at Heath Farm

We had 10 lovely days in Chestnut Cottage at Heath Farm. The cottage was so well set up, immaculately clean and comfortable and such a charming place to stay. The setting is just beautiful and the location was perfect for us to explore the many interesting places in the Cotswolds that we wanted to visit. Very friendly staff, family working there. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you.

Chestnut

A really nice quirky cottage, beautifully decorated and furnished. We were made very welcome by the owners, and enjoyed the spotlessly clean hot tub, and extensive gardens and woods. The owners had thought of everything and the cottage was very well equipped. A lovely holiday.

A slice of heaven in the Cotswolds

We had the most amazing stay at Heath Farm. Mon and his family went over and above to make our stay enjoyable and make sure we had the best time possible. They have truly created a slice of heaven in the Cotswolds and it's an excellent spot to explore the Cotswolds from. Our cottage, the Chestnut, had the hot tub overlooking the pond area which was a perfect place to unwind and watch out for wildlife after a day of exploring. There is lots to do at the farm itself with woodland to explore and lots of activities such as croquet, archery and games room, you will definitely not get bored! Truly recommend and will definitely go back!

Our Happy Place

We come the Heath Farm every year so that’s a recommendation in itself. We love it here and there is always something different to see when walking amongst the nut orchards and woodland. Would 100% recommend. Just a very small suggestion would be for the Chestnut to have larger comfy sofa to chill in, this would be a fabulous addition - thats the only reason why I gave a 4/5 for comfort. We especially loved the hot tub! See you next year in the Walnut this time. Debbie and Peter

We stayed 4 nights in Chestnut which has the hot tub with beautiful views. Beautiful estate with plenty to explore and also has a games room plus outdoor space. Lovely orchard with an abundance of apple and pear trees which we could pick along with the lovely raspberry bushes so had fresh fruit each morning. The cottage is well equipped and the owners have thought of everything. They have got it just right as not intrusive but there if you need them. You will relax from the moment you arrive. It was hard to leave and will be returning as soon as we can. A great find and a perfect position to explore the beautiful Cotswolds.
