Embrace country life with a stay on a working farm just outside Bidford-on-Avon. Less than a twenty-minute drive takes you into Stratford-upon-Avon for riverside walks, shopping and theatre matinees. Head out for walks with the dog, stopping off at the local pub along the way, rewarding your efforts with an evening spent in the hot tub. This tranquil spot has all the makings of a real getaway from reality where you can hunker down in comfort. Spending time together here comes naturally with a large open plan living area where you can eat together or gather around the fire with a film.
Full Description
Sitting amongst peaceful farmland at Oosland Barns, this converted barn is your country retreat. Around a central courtyard, these cottages are perfect for couples or a family getaway where each day starts with views of lush greenery beyond your private garden.

Set across one floor it is a spacious cottage which is light and airy. Finished with a traditional style from the classic woodburning stove in the sitting area to the exposed beams above it suits a variety of groups. Two bedrooms share a bathroom while the open plan living area is where you will spend your time. Light the fire and take the opportunity to spend time together while meals are prepared and the children watch TV.

The cherry on the cake at Combine Shed is the hot tub. Just outside the back door you can relax in the bubbles with a glass of fizz. With a BBQ and picnic bench this is a fantastic spot in the summer months. Bring the dogs and let them run off steam in the garden or explore the surrounding land. You can reach Bidford-on-Avon in just fifteen minutes on foot where paths along the River Avon await.

A beautiful stay! A really lovely little bolthole in Bidford. Very spacious for a young family and the hot tub once the baby was asleep was utter luxury! Very easy to find, close by to pubs and supermarkets, and a short 15 minute car ride to Stratford Upon Avon. Great kitchen, lovely bed sheets and a hot shower! Quiet and peaceful. Comfy sofas. Great log fire. Stunning ceilings. Warm and toasty. Great dog-friendly garden. Would thoroughly recommend.

We had a wonderful time staying here with our daughter - the cot and highchair pack made it really straightforward for a holiday with a 1 year old. The location is perfect - a ten minute walk to get to the shops and pub in Bidford and a 15 minute drive to Stratford or to Cotswolds villages.The wood burner and hot tub made it a real treat to stay here every evening. Thank you!

We had such a lovely time at the Combine Shed. We were promptly provided with a cot and high chair for the baby, there was ample space for the dog, and we were able to enjoy luxurious amenities like the log burner and hot tub. Found everything we needed easily, and enjoyed time to relax on a rainy weekend away from our normal responsibilities. Would hope to come back with the family again.

What a beautiful tranquil location. Lovely little cottage surrounded by fields but walking distance to Bidford-on-Avon. Plenty of lovely dog walks locally. We had plenty of towels as well as robes and flip flops for the hot tub. Lovely touch. Photos don’t do it justice. We had a lovely holiday. Thank you so much.

A lovely, peaceful stay, would definitely come back. The view from the garden/hot tub is beautiful. Lots of thoughtful extras such as flip flops and robes for the hot tub, coffee pods and so on. Great location for exploring the Cotswolds, Stratford etc.
