  Comprising 18 hideaway rooms and secret garden suites, the charming rooms alone are an inviting solace from the hustle and bustle of the day-to-day. An escape with friends or loved ones can easily be accommodated at Barnsley House’s very own Home Farm Cottage, a mere stroll away with its three double bedrooms, roll top baths and kitchen replete with freshly baked bread, farm yard eggs and other accoutrements bespoke to one’s needs.

Nature extends from the beautiful surrounds into the spa, which features indoor plants, tables crafted from tree trunks and lavender scented rooms. As well as the spa, a cosy cinema welcome guests in from a day discovering the Cotswoldian countryside, whilst hidden nooks with ample armchairs and sofas bedeck the living areas to while away an afternoon catching up with a loved one or good book!
