Upper Barn is a beautiful property in an excellent location just off Chipping Norton high street.

The Barn is excellently presented and was a cosy stay for a weekend with friends.

There are a couple of improvements areas - the toilet seat in the main bathroom was broken and the shower seal was coming loose which meant water was seeping on to the floor. The hairdryer provided was also faulty.

The kitchen was faultless though - fully equipped and some lovely additions of local butter, crumpets and milk was nice. Beds and sofas were also very comfy.

Lovely barn in a good location for Chipping Norton and all the beautiful villages that surround it. Kevin was a great manager he gave us lots of information on arrival and was contactable when required.
There are a couple of things that I would recommend, the outside of the velux windows need a good clean, some you can’t see out of!
The toilet seat in the en-suite doesn’t fit and needs changing.
Overall we had a lovely time thank you

Perfect location and perfect size cottage for 5 and a small dog, had everything we needed for our stay. Beds were very comfortable and clean. A special mention, the hot water was on tap, plus the extra gas fire, which we had on at night... a home away from home. Thank you for having us, we all highly recommend Upper Barn.

We are in the unique position of having stayed in a number of holiday cottages close to Chipping Norton Town center while our home was being renovated. Of all the 3 bedroom holiday lets we stayed in, Upper Barn provided the best value for money by a country mile. It is very spacious, beautifully decorated and very well kitted out with quality kitchen ware, good beds and crisp white linen. There is a dedicated parking bay next to the barn and although it is in the town center, the location is secluded and quiet.. Stay Cotswold helped us to secure Upper Barn for the second time at short notice and communications with them was without fault. Highly recommended!

Had a great stay in a great location. After a wobbly start - parking spot was occupied and baby cot and high chair had not been delivered - we had a wonderful time. The initial issues were quickly resolved and then forgotten. The location was great - close to all Chipping Norton facilities and Chipping Norton was a great base for exploration of Cotswolds. The accommodation was a little tight, especially upstairs, but not enough to spoil the vacation. Kitchen was well equipped and all utilities worked well.

Overall we really enjoyed our stay and found it a very comfortable property. We really appreciated the owner switching us to the back of his suite of properties to avoid the fair on High Street although that should have been stated up front. We did have some housekeeping issues on arrival. We found a totally dirty plate in the cupboard with the "clean" dishware. Someone also left a ball point pen in the washer that was stuck in the rubber gasket and some ink got on a shirt I ran through the washer. The chair and sofa cushions really needed a washup as well. Lastly, when we arrived, we had about 3 sheets of toilet paper in the bathrooms total. This is why I give lower marks for cleanliness and condition.

On the plus side, beds very comfy, house was spacious. The few food items left for us was a nice touch.

I do recommend putting some kind of shower caddy in that very small shower space for a bar of soap and shampoo..

The Upper Barn was really nicely presented and fully equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The rooms were very clean and bedrooms were very comfortable. Very close to all the local amenities and had a great time during our stay in the beautiful Cotswolds.

My family and I loved our stay at Upper Barn. The check in instructions were clear and simple, the property manager was quickly responsive the one time I needed him, the location gave easy walking access to the Main Street and a grocery store, and the cottage was clean, comfortable, and appointed with all the things we needed.

Upper Barn was excellent. The quality of the interior is so good and the cleanliness of the place was perfection The gas stove made a real comfy atmosphere in the evenings The EV charger was a nice touch for us as we drive fully electric vehicle The location was brilliant and also so quiet for to be in the town
A good selection of groceries shops, pubs, & restaurants within a 3 minute walk. I could not prai this place enough and we will definitely be back The team at StayCotswolds made check in so easy and the information for directions and checking in were really good Thanks Again
