Incredible hosts and immaculate cottage!
Matt and Amanda are wonderful hosts; available for any questions or help ... including directing us to get a sick child to medical help after hours and checking in on our little one after our trip to the hospital. They are quite knowledgeable about many things in the surrounding areas. They had the cottage stocked with a few things basics to help get guests through their first night and morning, in case we arrived after stores had closed. The kitchen is well-stocked for cooking; the beds were VERY comfortable: and the shower had great water pressure! The back patio is lovely for eating breakfast or dinner outside, with a lovely view over fields. We were lucky enough to be there when the sheep arrived in the nearby pasture and enjoyed hearing their gentle bleating in the afternoons. We are already looking at our long-term calendar to see when we can manage to return ... this visit was only eight days, but one could easily be very much at home and comfortable staying much longer. Thank you for a most enjoyable and peaceful visit, Matt and Amanda!

quiet getaway
We were very impressed. The property was warm, spacious and comfortable. The owners had put a Christmas tree up and a few tasteful decorations around. Braunston is very close to our daughter and her family. We were able to visit her and come 'home' for a cosy, comfortable rest. We appreciated the welcome pack and particularly liked the hot water bottles. The property was exceptionally well equipped. We would not hesitate to book again and are happy to recommend.

I think we've found our home away from home.
This was a beautiful property, very well-appointed, warm (we went in January), in a beautiful little village within a stone's throw of Rugby (closer still to Daventry). Glad we found it! Matt and Amanda were very understanding with our punctuated stay.

Ideal for a short break in the South Midlands
Chestnut Barn was an ideal place to stay for my wife, daughter and myself. Everything one could realistically need for a short break in the area, with shops, pubs and restaurants a short walk way, and larger centres at a short drive. Well situated for numerous tourist attractions (e.g., Warwick Castle, Stratford upon Avon, Bletchely Park, etc) The barn itself was very clean and well presented, with a comprehensive welcome pack of groceries (and - a very nice touch - a small bottle of prosecco for our wedding anniversary from the owners). It's clearly been very well refurbished, and beds and other furnishings were of a high standard, and very comfortable. Freeview TV was enhanced by the inclusion of an Amazon FireTV stick, allowing access to streamed content over the reasonably-good WIFI. All in all, a very enjoyable break in accommodation of a high standard.
