The Combine Shed is a spacious ground floor, single-storey, barn conversion situated on the owners’ working farm, just half a mile from the pretty riverside village of Bidford-on-Avon, Warwickshire. The barn sleeps four in two bedrooms (a double, and a twin), and has a family bathroom. Inside you will also find an open-plan living area with kitchen, dining area and sitting area with woodburner stove. To the outside is off-road parking for two cars, and a lawned garden with patio, hot tub, and a picnic table for al fresco eating. The Combine Shed is dog friendly.

Excellent stay!

We really enjoyed our long weekend here. The location made it very easy to travel around the Cotswolds and also visit Stratford-upon-Avon which is only 20mins away. The outlook over the fields is beautiful, we loved having our private garden and hot tub. The log burner is a lovely addition and it really did feel home from home.



A lovely property in an ideal location for exploring the Cotswolds and catching up with friends.

The property is neat and tidy and plenty big enough for 2 couples. The hot tub is a lovely addition. The criticisms would be the need to fix the curtain pole in the lounge - really messed with my engineer friend's mind, and also the cleaners need to look up, especially in the bathroom, and clear all the cobwebs away. It was also impossible to have a shower without making the floor very wet as the screen across the to of the bath wasn't long enough. Other than all that we would be happy to come back to the area and book the same property, or try one of the others on the farm.



Would book again

I booked a short break (2 nights) at the Combine Shed in Bidford on Avon. It was a superb place to stay :-) - very comfortable and everything we needed was there. The open lounge / dining / kitchen area was very spacious, light but still had a comfy feel. The kitchen itself had everything we needed for self catering for a few meals. The bedrooms were also very comfortable and I think we all slept well in the beds. Overall the place was clean and pleasantly decorated and offered a lovely retreat - in fact I said many times (to the kids annoyance I'm sure) that I would happily live in a place like this! The enclosed garden area was beautiful, backing on to large fields. The only thing that could perhaps have enhanced the stay would have been some comfy garden chairs or sun loungers to enjoy a good book with a glass of wine while overlooking the wonderful views.

We stayed here for 2 nights in June to visit Stratford upon Avon .
Lovely spacious property in quiet area. Bidford upon Avon had places to eat and takeaways
The property was ideal for our dog with a fully enclosed garden .
Facilities were good in the property . The wifi however never worked which was frustrating for us . That was only negative
Would recommend this property to others

Wonderful place to stay and enjoy the peace and quiet of the surrounding countryside. Accommodation is just beautiful, very homely and comfortable with everything you could possibly need. Our two large dogs enjoyed the ample garden and also the lovely walks along the river.



A great stay, with a great host!

I stayed for a total of 3 nights with my partner. On our arrival there were a few unexpected issues with the property which led to me calling up the owner, Kate, late at night (10pm-ish!). Kate picked up and immediately came round to the property to try and sort the issues, and offered us a stay in one of her other properties instead to give her time to fix the problems. I was really impressed with Kate’s speed in coming round as well as her kind and friendly attitude.

We ended up staying in Owl’s End - the property next door, and we had no qualms whatsoever! The place was very cosy, and is perfect for either one or two couples to stay. We really enjoyed the open fire and Kate had left lots of wood and firelighters out so we could enjoy the fire the whole weekend. The TV was great too and having Netflix was definitely a plus!

Overall we had a fantastic stay and it was really down to Kate’s amazing attitude that meant we had a great time. Would definitely recommend the property we stayed in and would certainly recommend Kate as a host!

The Combine Shed has to be one of the best self-catering units I've stayed in. Very clean, well equipped, close to all the amenities that we needed. A few minor niggles - the coffee machine didn't work, and no instruction books for appliances, etc, but overall it was truly excellent. I would highly recommend this property to anyone considering it.



Bolthole Retreats replied more than 1 year ago
Thank you for leaving your review David. The owner is aware of your niggles and looking into them. We hope you can come again! Best wishes Bolthole Retreats

The Combine shed provided a very pleasant and peaceful break for 4 adults (and dog). A short walk to the town for shops, pubs and the river. Facilities at the property were more than adequate for self catering and the garden was secure for the dog to roam. Would definitely stay again and reccomend to others
