Pool Meadow cottage - Knollands Farm
Enjoying panoramic views, this sympathetically converted barn is outstandingly comfortable, with ornamental brick fireplace in the living room and is ideally placed for relaxing or exploring. Set in 50 acres of grounds which boast a wealth of wildlife, it is close to the owners home, enjoying its own small garden and patio. The delightful market town of Shipston on Stour (1 mile away) offers shops and an excellent choice of inns and restaurants, Shakespeare's Stratford and the village of Chipping Campden are both within 20 minutes by car. Warwick Castle, Stow-on-the-Wold and NT properties are also nearby. Whilst the cottage has a quiet, rural setting, it benefits from a Fibre broadband internet connection to keep guests “connected”.

We had a lovely week here - it's a splendid, quiet, comfortable place to stay, with a most helpful and friendly host. The owners are just around the corner if needed but the cottage is completely self-contained and private. It has all the equipment we needed and more and even had sufficient power points!

Great place to stay
If you are looking for a quiet place to relax or a place to visit Stow on Wold, Bourton on the Water, Stratford upon Avon and more this is the ideal place. The cottage has everything you need. There are local shops, places to eat & car hire. Loved our stay here and would not hesitate to book it again!
The setting is wonderful, quiet and private. One level living is great for those us us with ‘old’ knees. Well equipped and great shower lots of information on the area available in the cottage. Would recommend.
very nice position overlooking fields and countryside on a farm. The only fault we could find good do with a larger TV and also a heated towel rail otherwise everything fine.
I rented this property for my elderly parents as they were visiting me. They thoroughly enjoyed it and said they would stay again. They are in their mid to late 70's.
Host very friendly, showed us around garden area when we first arrived, including showing us Hercules , a baby lamb abandoned by its mum so being hand reared by them, then left us to our own devices but where near by if needed. Accomodation was lovely with great views, and visits from all kinds of birds and rabbits and hares and we even seen deers on a couple of occasions . The local village has a handfull of shops and plenty of places to go for an evening meal. Stratford upon Avon and Banbury nice places for a visit. Also the car museum was a great day out. We will be back.
A lovely cottage set off the main road with great views over the fields. A truly peaceful retreat. Cottage was warm and comfortable. Great to have our own space whilst visiting family in the area. We hope to come back soon.
Nature at its best, surrounded by green, birds singing, got to see a new born lamb, rabbits and a deer walking walk... I felt safe, internet was great too for my work!!
Thank you Tom, loved being here and shall be back... perfect and peaceful!
Sehr empfehlenswert - eine schöne, saubere und zweckmäßige Ferienwohnung am Rande einer Farm mit schönem Blick in die Felder. Es ist alles da, was man braucht, der Vermieter ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Shipston bietet alles Notwendige, Stratford ist schnell erreichbar. Gerne wieder!
Helpful directions from Tom enabled me to easily locate the property on the road. It is then down a private driveway and consequently well away from the road and thus Pool Meadow Cottage is a haven of peace and tranquility. Everything that one could require is there in the property and the patio area with table and chairs looks across the open fields. Parking the car was a delight as you are able to park close to the entrance door of the property so unloading and then reloading all the holiday gear is very easy.
Three of us had a seven nights stay which we all thoroughly enjoyed, my wife and I slept soundly in the very comfortable bed.
We live in a hard water area and loved the soft water in this location, it does make for a lovely cup of tea !
I thoroughly recommend Pool Meadow Cottage as somewhere to stay in that area. Close to Banbury and also Stratford upon Avon and Bourton on the Water are all within easy driving distance.
Tom, the host responded swiftly when I initially booked the property and kindly acknowledged receipt of my payment, he gave clear directions over the phone a couple of days prior to our arrival and was on hand to greet us when we arrived and also when it was time for us to make our way home.
Without question I would stay at Pool Meadow Cottage again if I need to re-visit the area.
