Farmstay vacation rentals in Kennet and Avon Canal

I had a beautiful time at the Stables! It’s a getaway from the world at a working farm. I love animals, so I asked to meet some of them, and Yvonne took me to see (and pet!) the milking cows, and explained the entire process to me! The house had traditional charm but was has been updated everywhere that it counts. They have lists of local recommendations but I was happy to get groceries and use the excellent kitchen at the property. I did not have a car and was warned about difficulty getting around but as I was only interested in nature and peace and quiet, getting to and from on public transport was easy enough. Finally, Yvonne was always prompt responding to me and was very friendly and welcoming! I’d love to come back!

We loved our stay at Susan’s house. The house is so cosy and spacious. The garden was huge and perfect for an Easter egg hunt! We stayed with four adults and two young children and there was plenty of space. The sunroom was lovely for relaxing and for the children to play, and the garden was amazing. Susan was also very kind and communicative.

Amazing location, just a short distance from Salisbury, very peaceful location. Enjoyed seeing all the animals around the farm. Lovely view of Salisbury Cathedral.

We had a wonderful stay at the lodge. Very cosy cottage, comfy bedrooms and amazing walks in the surroundings. Jo was very responsive and a proactive host. Thanks again!

Fantastic stay and great location. The owners were very quick to respond when messaged and they very kindly gave us a tour of their farm which we loved. I would highly recommend. 😊

I stayed at the milking parlour, Lovely little place to stay. Very clean, peaceful and has everything you need there. They provided a lovely little welcome pack on arrival and there was milk in the fridge, bonus! Especially after a long drive and all you’re fancying is a cuppa! I have booked to stay for the extra days I need to work away. Fab place! Jo & Trevor are quick at replying too. There are some nice pubs around too, and you aren’t too far from Yeovil! Thank you guys, can’t wait to come back! 😊

If I could give extra stars beyond the 5 star rating, I really would. Hillary's AirBnB is beautiful, exactly what my wife and I needed and agreed it was one of the best places we've stayed at via AirBnB. Hillary allowed for an early check-in, was really communicative being friendly and helpful whenever we did communicate. Cannot recommend enough!

we had a great stay. the area is very peaceful, but within easy distance of main roads. pubs and local walks. lots to do locally and slightly further afield. the house was exactly as pictured, and very clean. the kitchen had everything we needed, including plastic plates for little ones. hosts were easy to contact but respectful of privacy. we'd definitely book again!

A beautiful staycation, surrounded by nature, it is private yet close enough to places/shops etc. Games and Bikes were a lovely touch so we had plenty of activities to do. Fire inside and outside made for a cosy stay when the weather wasn’t on our side. Highly recommend!

We really loved and enjoyed our stay. Lovely scene and very peaceful.

Amazing stay! Such a lovely little shepherds hut which was well equipped and perfect for us. Breakfast provided was a bonus and felt so welcome by Rosalind and family. We would definitely return if we were in the area!

My Husband, toddler and I had a lovely stay for 3 nights at the Carthorse Barn! Annette’s place is beautiful and in a great location too. We visited the Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens and Cirencester during our stay. The barn is also a good choice for families with young children as Annette provided a travel cot, bath towel, high chair and toys as well as cutlery and plates. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

It was our second stay at the old stable. We feel like home and can’t wait to come back. Gillian is a great host and the house a great location to explore the Cotswolds.

Our third stay here and it was just as great as the first time. The lodge is always super clean and very well presented, a fully functioning kitchen and large bathroom, nice comfy bed and the living area is perfect. Lots of personal high end touches which are always appreciated. The area is so peaceful and quiet, we loved our free days and evenings just chilling in the hot tub, enormous views from the tub which are fantastic, we again were lucky enough to see the Deers in the fields next to us and even an Owl. Lots of birds and wildlife to keep you occupied and entertained. For anyone wanting to get back to nature this is the perfect place. The absolutely magical Glastonbury is less than a 10 minute drive away which will take the breath away from any and all newcomers. We love our annual stay here and can not wait to come back again already. Thank you Christine & Ron for another perfect stay.

The Granary offered a weekend of total relaxation following my birthday. The home matches the beautiful photos and oozes charm and comfort. The cabin was easy to find and the instructions sent over were very clear. I was welcomed with a lovely hamper with local treats as well as a welcome book with lots of recommendations. I was delighted to spend time reading in the mezzanine, sitting on the patio listening to the sounds of the birds, taking a sunset dip in the hot tub and stargazing at night. My only note is that prior to my arrival, I had enquired about the additional perks however, this was not followed up on. It was slightly disappointing but did not take away from my experience. All in all, I had a fantastic time and would be delighted to return!

The Chocolate Box Cottage is literally just that - right out of a photo on a box of chocolates and lived up to the expectations. Amanda was a great host, from her initial communication, giving us early access to drop our bags off, exceptionally accomodating with our requests, checking in with us whilst we were at the Cottage and even making sure we had made it home safe. And the (many!) little touches upon arrival including a hamper with goodies, continental breakfast, drinks in the fridge, & so on really helped elevate the stay for us. And the bench at the Telephone Box Library opposite helped stretch out sitting in the sunshine enjoying drinks well into the evening sunset :-). The village the cottage is in is beautiful, tiny and exceptionally peaceful with a great pub and coffee shop both within a very quick 10 mins walking distance. And the surrounding villages have pretty much everything else you would need. A lovely stay, and would happily return.

Claire and Christopher were incredible hosts! Their little home from home was perfect for our family of four. It was very well set up, kitted out kitchen perfect for any type of cooking, cozy space, and lovely surroundings. We especially loved exploring the fields and the kids loved the chickens and dogs! The hot tub was a perfect way to end each day. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a countryside experience with all the comforts of home.

We had a lovely stay at this cottage. We used it as a base to visit Cheddar Gorge, Bath and Longleat Safari and it was a perfect location for all three. The cottage was well equipped and surrounded by beautiful countryside. We particularly enjoyed watching the cows.

Lovely 3 days with our 3 daughters and partners , baby grandson and 2 dogs !! Plenty of space for us all and we were fortunate to have wonderful weather Absolutely beautiful location , peaceful and amazing views Property immaculate and we loved the large kitchen /dining area where we spent most of our time ... great for cooking and socialising at the same time so we could all be together and enjoy views too ... Our daughters two dogs loved the surrounding fields to run around in and we were able to enjoy a lovely circular walk from the property on the monarchs way and Cotswold Way .. beds all v comfortable and everything of high quality Nothing to fault and we had a great time here - one of the best kept Air BnB s some of us had been to . Enjoyed the Banana cake and fresh eggs A small point - there is another property ( sleeping 4) that is let separately which is v close - It wasn't an issue for us as only one person staying who was hardly there so was quiet but it could

Absolutely stunning place to stay, beautiful location, very peaceful, the cottage is finished to a high standard, fully equipped kitchen. I will definitely be returning next time I’m in the area. Unfortunately I was on a work trip and didn’t get to explore locally, but would love to return for a peaceful escape with my family.

Joanna is an extremely hospitable, very friendly and personable host. She took time to chat about her animals and made us feel right at home. We only stayed for one night during a stay in the West Country, but would highly recommend to any couples who love very peaceful rural surroundings and not to forget the Alpaca’s, Horses, Sheep and the Pony’s. Great host, highly recommend!

We loved our stay here, perfect for a break away from city life! Big shout out to Alex and Rob for being great hosts, they were friendly, responsive and helped us with any difficulties we had. I loved that they had a chimnea, which allowed us to enjoy the beauty of a fire pit and the night sky. There is a river behind the house, which we loved exploring the area of. Would definitely recommend if you want a peaceful getaway, around nature.

This was the third stay at this AirBnB. It’s a very peaceful place to stay and ideally situated for walking in the local countryside and visiting nearby Bath, Castle Combe, Tetbury and many other places of interest. Highly recommended.

Lovely spot in friar woods , we did a bit of touring around the sites and even managed an evening in bath with a 20min walk to the train station - Jenny and Richard were both very acclimating and made our weekend lovely with ideas and just a lovely feeling, would love to come back and see more of the local walks etc
