Greyhound Barn Reviews

Robert
We have used the Barn on many occasions. It is a lovely big property, perfect for those who like a bit of privacy, every bedroom has en suite. Decor and furnishings are a little tired, and hot water can take a while. Whilst its not for those looking for luxury, it is comfortable and big enough for large family gatherings. We'll be back next year.
We were a big family group of 13 and Greyhound Barn was just perfect. A huge house providing a great dining space for us all to sit together, multiple rooms to relax with lots of comfortable chairs and settees and, for us, the cherry on the top was the fantastic games room! We love games and the big room upstairs offered a pool table, table football, lots of board games and a huge open area of carpet for our carpet bowls! we brought these with us. The village pub just a 2 minute walk was fantastic too. Highly recommended.
We stayed at Greyhound Barn as a group of 14 friends. The accomodation worked really well. The large kitchen dining area made for great communal meals and the two separate lounges were well utilised. The whole place was warm throughout our stay. There were a few maintenance issues and the property would benefit from a makeover as some of the furnishings were looking a little tired. The bathrooms needed a deep clean but overall the barn was good value for money and in a great location.
Leeson
The house is to say the least, very tired. Kitchen was for cooking purposes only as was cold and old fashioned we had to get a blower heater. Badger room no heating at all, shower blocked with old hair my brother is a plumber, so sorted it dust and debris under the bedpictures availableshower door does not shut properly.Badger roomfaulty valve in toilet, no tv remote. Games room tv only has bbc1 reported but not fixed, we fixed the snooker cue test. toilet upstairs, hot water Tap not working. Otter room intermittent problem with toilet filling, room temp very hot you could grow bananas mould in shower. Downstairs bath waste leaking under bath, plug chain broke, so plug gets stuck. Could go on and on but we are a nice family who just soldier on and laugh. Great location but luxury it is not, and a little friendly mouse moved in to the twin room downstairs on the last night, so my nephew and niece slept on the sofa. The owner very nice but too many issues for him to resolve, as he needs Nick Knowles from DIY SOS. If you want a budget holiday for a large family with no frills, this is the place. The countryside is stunning and the village pub is lovely the cask beer is amazing.
The owner was very helpful and informative and the barn was perfect for our group 7 Ladies & one dog. The kitchen was well kitted out and the showers were good. On the negative, the towels were small take your own, and the barn could have been a bit cleaner. But on the whole a lovely place, in a lovely area, with everything we needed.
This barn is a huge place in a great position to visit The Cotswolds, Unfortunately it is getting a bit drab, We noted that it was up for sale. We think it needs a little bit of TLC. Owner was very nice. checked to see if we were all OK and lent us his own BBQ
Coffee machines 2 did not function. Dishwasher unreliable ended up sink washing. Small courtyard very dusty and shared very little sun
Philip
We had a fantastic stay and will use Sykes again for future bookings. Thank you and best wishes.
Jennifer
Wonderful house, perfect for our needs, very friendly owner. Had an absolutely lovely stay. Left the owner some birthday cake xxx
Greyhound Barn is a lovely property with a great space for large groups set in a lovely area. It could do with a bit of TLC with decor and furnishings etc. The fixtures and fittings, such as showers could do with upgrading. Having said that, we had a wonderful time and would happily go back.
For small children the lack of outdoor space would be disappointing . The teenagers loved the upstairs lounge.It has a good location for nearby attractions and local pub .The closeness to busy road was worrying for dogs and children.We were surprised by proximity of other buildings.Furniture and fixtures looked a little tired compared to other properties we have rented.Howerever, overall we enjoyed our stay and have no real complaints Thank you
Owner really friendly and attentive to our needs and when some of our party arrived late offer to drive them to venue that the rest of the party were a look ready at . .
We had a brilliant family reunion week at Greyhound Barn. 14 of us enjoyed the comfortable beds, attractive living spaces including the snooker table and well stocked kitchen. It's great when a large property actually has huge pots and pans for cooking up meals for all! Fridge and freezer space was also generous. The owner gave us valuable advice about the road closure and a plumbing problem was quickly addressed. The surrounding countryside gave us plenty to do. A very happy week for our family!
A perfect place for a large family gathering. We loved the games room.
The size of the property was great for our large family group. The kitchen was well stocked and the living and dining areas were ideal. We were impressed with the welcome treats. Some of the bathrooms had minor problems with leaking showers but we all had a great weekend.
Accommodation was ideal for our group however there were a few issues. The main concern was the showers. Clear instructions were given that they may take a while to heat however some rooms had problems Pheasant was too hot to get in, Hare was extremely hot and the extractor fan did not work resulting in a lot of stream, Owl the shower tray filled very quickly and leaked onto the floor, Otter and Squirrel also extremely hot showers resulting in a lot of steam. The result of all the steam on Sunday morning was that the fire alarm went off. The owner was quick to come round and said that it was probably due to the steam. A couple of other hiccups the light in Fox shower was a bit unreliable would not always turn on, only one plug socket seemed to work. The downstairs living room fire door handle not very secure it came off a couple of times. The details given re what to bring said there will be basic cleaning supplies and we would need to bring our own. There were a few cloths but no washing up liquid or cleaner for our use on arrival The starter pack of dishwasher tablets consisted of 1 tablet. Maybe it would be better to say no cleaning materials.
The cottage is in a lovely village and has good facilities. However it was not very well presented. We found a used face mask in the accessible bedroom and a used towel left behind the door in owl room. The decor was tired and some showers needing a deep clean.
We felt that the property was very basic and a bit tired. We did not feel it had been cleaned thoroughly Some of the showers had mould around the bottom and one of the showers leaked badly. There was a broken door handle on one of the ensuites. There were cigarette butts at the top of the steps outside the games room which had not been swept up none of us smoke In the bedroom we used there was an old face mask on the floor It served its purpose enabling our family to get together and we had a good time despite the limitations of the property We did not think it was value for money 2 night stay
The barn is a lovely old property but could really do with a revamp. Showers are very small and leak.They are also quite shabby.The tap in the upper kitchen rid jot turn off and a few door handles are loose. My major concern is some of the patio furniture which Is broken and needs tipping and quite dangerous. The barn is in great location and with a little bit of work is a great location for a large party.
Generally we were very happy with our stay at Greyhound Barn. Just a couple of comments. It was surprising to find so few wine glasses for a property for 16 people. plenty of other glasses, but only about 6 wine glasses. The dining room chairs needed regluing to firm them up. Otherwise it was a well stock kitchen, and delighted to have in induction range cooker. The leisure facilities upstairs were excellent and a lot of fun was had.
Greyhound cottage was excellent accommodation for our large party, generously proportioned property with nice bedrooms and a well equipped kitchen. Very nice outdoor space to sit in the sunshine. Lots of off road parking too. There were some niggles however, a few of the shower trays leaked and the shower doors did not close on one cubicle. The floor in one shower room had a hole where a foot had gone through the linoleum, presumably as a consequence of the wetness affecting the boards underneath. photo of this available if required A wall plug was loose on one bedroom wall and a pull switch was loose in another shower. However we had a fabulous stay, the barn was clean and comfortable and we would stay again if party numbers so dictated.
Rachel
We had a lovely stay in Greyhound barn, the owner was on hand to help with local information, the house is perfect for large groups, it was clean , warm and had plenty of equipment. Greyhound barn is in a beautiful village in a perfect location. We had regular visits from a handsome cat called Harry who kept us very entertained. Thank you everyone who made our stay so comfortable.
Fantastic property which was perfect for our extended family to stay at for our sons wedding. Comfortably accommodated 16 and never felt like we were on top of each other. Grand kids loved Harry the cat just watch when you go out that he hasnt snuggled down somewhere. Just one suggestion maybe some hand soap and a few cleaning materials would be helpful especially if like us we were only there for 2 nights. Overall we would highly recommend
Stephen
A very well presented holiday cottage in a lovely location, the amenities were very good and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. i would recommend this establishment to friends and family. One slight drawback is perhaps the shower drain away could be bettered to allow faster draining of the shower trays. Otherwise a very enjoyable experience
Jeanette
The positioning of the property made it ideal for visiting Cotswold towns and attractions. It was extremely well equipped and the kitchen area and garden were great for a family get together. The welcome gift was super and we certainly made the most of it We enjoyed our stay immensely and would certainly recommend the property as a place to stay
14 of us had a very pleasant stay at Greyhound Barn! After 2 years of not being able to meet up and then our booked property being taken out of commission by the owners last December it was a relief to find a property large enough for us all with ensuite rooms. We enjoyed the large lounge upstairs for the whole group to meet up in the evenings and also the cosy front lounge to relax in. Bed linen and towels fresh although a couple of bath mats needed replacement. Although clean to the eye a bit of deeper cleaning under beds and furniture moving might not go amiss. More clarification about refuse disposal would help as, coming from different authorities where rules vary, it seemed seemed out of date. An extra bin for recyclables inside would be helpful. A good location with good walks and The Village Pub for a meal out so accessible with very pleasant staff who were mega helpful. Although there is an outdoor area with rattan furniture there is no garden as such. We were able to sensibly park 7 cars on the property with no problem. Would we go again........definitely!
Valerie
This was an ideal property for our large family group of 12 3 generations with ages 17 months to 74 years. The first floor lounge with games tables proved especially popular. Plenty of bedrooms with all of them ensuite. A couple of showers were rather slow to drain meaning care had to be taken to avoid overflowing onto the floor. The kitchen is very generously equipped with plenty of cutlery, crockery and best of all several very large saucepans. Plenty of fridge and freezer space. There are two fridges in the kitchen plus a smaller one in the first floor kitchenette. However only one small empty double wall cupboard which was insufficient for all our grocery provisions. Also we found no instructions for operating the cooker so there was some frustration involving trial and error when using the hob. However overall everyone agreed that Greyhound Barn provided perfect accommodation for our family get together, located in a beautiful part of the country.
Our family of 15 had a great time at the Greyhound Barn. Ensuite facilities in all bedrooms were great, a huge kitchen dining area, and, best of all, the enormous sitting room upstairs wirh plenty of settees, a snooker table and table football and still room to spare!. Would definitely recommend.
Nicholas
We have stayed at Greyhound Barn on many occasions. This time the general standard was very much improved and a huge effort had been made to improve the showers, renew bedding and freshen the paintwork and decor throughout. Generous heating and hot water and plenty of living space for everyone. The kitchen is quite limited when catering for a large group. Phone signal is very weak, but wifi worked in most areas of the house.
Lack of communication by both Sykes and the owners exacerbated small problems and made them difficulties. This was a pity as the administrator very kindly did rearrange beds for us. However, no one gave us the key code so we were forced to leave the house unlocked. This despite many emails and calls to Sykes, the administrator and the owners. Sykes just kept resending their same standard email telling us to get the code from the owner. .... The heating was broken and while we understand the present situation makes it impossible to get repairs done quickly we were promised more heaters but it took more than a day and many phone calls to get just one. Most of our bedrooms and bathrooms were cold. It sounds picky but if you are promised dish washer tablets and there are none and nowhere to buy any ...hand washing for nine people is no one's favourite holiday task. 3 finally arrived with the heater. This was our group's second stay at The Greyhound Barn and we appreciated the improvements but we can't risk another.
The Greyhound barn is in a great place. However there are significant problems with the plumbing, showers and bath leaking onto the floor in several rooms. I have written separately to the owneradmin team highlighting problems that we identified as needing attention. There may be other problems. I would not recommend staying at this property to anyone else until these issues have been addressed
Hi our stay was enjoyable very nice place the only comment would be for a large group the washing & drying of clothes was not a adequate and the barbecue could of been bigger.
The cottage and facilities were perfect for the holiday we wanted, but had a more basic and institutional feel than we expected from the description and photos. In particular the long ground floor corridor with bedrooms off it seemed clinical. Whilst this was okay for us, it would have been disappointing for someone looking for a rural Cotswold cottage. The only issue experienced that impacted our enjoyment was the unreliable internet connection, with the router regularly crashing. This combined with a lack of phone reception caused communication issues. To be clear, we had a very enjoyable holiday and the location and building suited our needs perfectly.
Suzanne
Fantastic holiday home for our large family get together. Well equipped kitchen, all ensuite rooms and large upstairs lounge which was comfortable and had plenty of seating. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. Only other comments are that it could do with a bit of an update and refreshing, overall this didn't affect our visit. I would highly recommend Greyhound Barn for large parties.
Fantastic home for a large family get together, with ample room and a well equipped kitchen with endless amounts of cutlery and crockery, making it easy for everybody within our large party. The children loved the size of the property and it was great to have 2 separately located living rooms and a really large kitchendining area meaning everyone had their own space when required. My only comments would be some of the decor could do with updating, as could the ensuitewetrooms which didn't really have good enough drainage where no selfcontained cubicles were fitted. Overall this didn't affect our enjoyment of the property and i'd highly recommend for large parties looking for a really spacious property. We had 14 people in our party and the house was far from crowded due to the size and space available.
Leslie
Greyhound Barn was perfect for our large family group, well equipped, and with en suite facilities in each bedroom it meant no sharing, very rare for such a large group and very welcome. The owners were very friendly and welcoming and on hand if we needed anything. All in all it made for a great Easter break for the family and the hot cross buns were much appreciated
Greyhound Barn suited our family holiday perfectly. Our three generation gathering enjoyed the space offered inside for the children to run around and our dining arrangement was perfect. We ate inhouse all but one night. The owners were particularly obliging, and it was a pleasure talking to them. Thank you to Sykes once again for excellent service.
Catherine
Great value for money a little shabby in places but this property is substantially cheaper than others of its size in the area. We booked Greyhound Barn for a family celebration and stayed two nights. There was plenty of room for 15 people and it was well equipped. The kitchen was a little small for cooking shared family meals but there was plenty of fridge and freezer space and enough room for us all to eat together. The large upstairs lounge was comfortable and had enough seating for everyone. The owners, who live next door were very friendly and helpful and the welcome basket was a lovely touch. It was too cold to use the patio area for sitting or eating outside but this would be lovely in Summer. There was enough parking space on the property for 5 cars and a motorbike. Nice pub along the road but the drinks were pricey. I would recommend this property for large gatherings and good value for money as long as you are not expecting high end fittings.
