Loved this place

Our family really enjoyed our stay here in October. The property was very comfortable, provided everything we needed and was located in a beautiful little English village, with a great pub across the road. Rachel and her family were welcoming and friendly. The kids loved visiting the cows and rabbits, running about amongst the apple trees and picking blackberries in the fields. Highly recommend a stay here for anyone looking for a quiet, rural English homestay. We loved it!

Would come back in a heartbeat

We had a wonderful time staying here. The town is in a great location to explore surrounding areas including the Warner Bros. Studios Harry Potter experience and Bletchley Park just to name two - there are many more. We had the good fortune to be there when the aircraft carrier HMS Prince of Wales came into Portsmouth which is a great town to visit. There are many small towns just a few miles away to explore. The cottage was perfect for us. It sits back off the road so it is quiet and it had everything we needed. Rachel and Pete couldn't have been more gracious and helpful. The people in town are lovely. We met many of them at the village shop and while attending the play "Downtrodden Abbey" performed by the local drama group, MADS. Seeing both the aircraft carrier and the play were unexpected treats but, even without them, we would highly recommend staying here.

A rest

Well it was a change, visits to Bletchley, London and various walks. Great area for walking, easy to stay off the roads. Also meant we felt we earned our meal at The Pilgrim, which was fabulous. Night times were very quiet so good nights sleep

Perfect!

Only stayed two nights as in the area for an event but the property and village were lovely. Didn’t expect to need to use the log burner in July but that’s the British summer for you and it was such a fab addition!

Cosy barn conversion set in lovely village

The property is attached to the owners place Pete and Rachel, with plenty of room for parking. We met Pete on arrival and he gave us a useful low down on the facilities and places to visit whilst on our stay. The property is well equipped and tastefully furnished. All in all we would highly recommend.

We would definitely do third again.

Our stay in the Stable was short, but we would definitely stay longer. North Marston is a lovely little village with pleasant walks and lovely people. Even the rabbits in the cottage back garden were content. The cottage, hidden in a little cul-de-sac, is directly across the street from the Pilgrim serving good food and providing a welcoming atmosphere. The cottage, while small, provided every amenity we needed and then some. The back garden is quiet and very nicely tended. We didn't get to meet Rachel or Pete on this trip (they were away with family) but our texts were always responded to quickly and most helpfully. We look forward to meeting them on our next visit to the village. Oh, yes, we did meet the cat....a very friendly and pettable creature! We think anyone would be pleased to stay here.

Cozy and comfortable, perfect for a weekend escape from London

I stayed with my son for two nights. The cottage is located in a lovely little village, with a pub across the street, and a village shop nearby. Larger shopping can be done in Winslow (Coop). There was everything we needed in the cottage, and a pretty garden with bunnies, to my son's delight. We were unlucky with the rain on one day, but had plenty to do (DVDs, games, books). Comfortable beds, small but functional kitchen. The cottage is perfect for walks in the country side, and a reasonable drive to several attractions (Bletchley park, Woburn Safari park, Go Ape, National Trust properties, etc...). It was perfect for a quick weekend escape from London. Thank you!

Perfect Bolthole

We wanted to see some different Ovations in the area and this was the perfect bolthole. The property is furnished to a very high standard and the hosts were very welcoming.. Had amazon prime and Netflix on tv which was a nice bonus. Definitely going to revisit again when we go to Bletchley Park.
