The Hayloft sits independently, to one side of its parent property, separated by the original hayloft courtyard, and across another wide gravel courtyard from its sister holiday rentals, The Paddock Cottage and The Chestnut Cottage. The Hayloft is tucked away in the folds of the Cotswolds hills yet just a mile from historic Winchcombe, home of Sudeley Castle and Gardens. The owners have lavished great care and attention on the Hayloft's interior, renovating it throughout to present a luxury holiday home that combines the original features of exposed timbers, stone walls, and doors, with contemporary furniture, art and amenities - all drawn together with a soothing palette of white walls, wooden flooring and soft natural greens and earthy tones in the fabrics and furnishings. The Hayloft has three double bedrooms, one off-set from the others with its own ensuite shower room (and an in-bedroom, freestanding bath), and a family shower room. Though the master bedroom is a showstopper, the beautiful, open-plan kitchen, which flows through to the dining and living area, will be the main attraction for guests, providing a spacious yet cosy and inviting cooking, dining and entertaining area. Immediately outside the Hayloft is a large, secluded patio, overlooked by trees and bordered by a quiet corner of Postlip House's rear garden. The patio has a dining area furnished with a large, rectangular dining table, six chairs and a cantilever parasol, and a charcoal BBQ that can easily cater for a six-guest feast. On the far side of the patio are two rattan-style sofas, armchairs and a drinks table. On the upper level, immediately inside the main entry gate, there's a children's play area with a wooden swing set and slide on an artificial grass surface. The owner has rescue chickens, who live beyond the Hayloft's patio. If they have been laying, you'll be able purchase delicious fresh eggs from the Egg honesty box located in the main courtyard. \*Dogs: 1 well-behaved dog welcome at the cottage at an additional cost each. Please let us know if you will be bringing a dog and we will then revise your booking confirmation. The pet fee is NOT included in your booking fee. A request for an additional fee per pet will be sent to you after you have placed your booking. Your pet fee must be paid for before your arrival date. Ground Floor Head up eight original, stone steps and through the front door into the magnificent open-plan kitchen-dining area and living room, with its original, exposed timbers and stone walls. Entrance: Immediately through the front door is an entrance area with a handy boot rack, coat hooks and a couple of umbrellas. Bedroom One: Open a door to the right of the entrance and head into a dressing area that leads to the fabulous master bedroom and its ensuite shower room. The triple aspect bedroom features the exposed timbers of the hayloft's original A-frame and vertical posts, which frame the original exposed brick end wall. Within the bedroom is a delightful treat: a freestanding, clawfoot bath with a banquet seat next to it and a heated towel rail at hand to keep towels and robes warm and dry. The bedroom is furnished with a super king-size bed on a super-sized rug over a wooden floor, with bedside tables and reading lights and a full-length mirror. A window seat provides a delightful place to perch and enjoy the view down to the original hayloft's hay lifting mechanism. The dressing area has inbuilt drawers and a wardrobe, plus a second cupboard for household cleaning equipment. Ensuite Shower Room: A sliding door opens to reveal striking, Edwardian-style floor tiles that are perfectly complemented by the royal green shower tiles. The shower room has a walk-in shower with a rainfall shower head, a wash basin with a hand-built vanity unit, a toilet and a heated towel rail. Kitchen: The spacious and light kitchen has every appliance needed for a self-catering stay, whether you want to prepare something simple or cook a three-course celebratory meal. The kitchen's design includes plenty of preparation surfaces, an oven, a five-ring hob, a dishwasher, a central granite-topped island with storage baskets and a double butler's sink (one with an Insinkerator for all food waste), positioned under a window looking out to the courtyard and the neighbouring properties of The Chestnut and The Paddock Cottage. To one side, tucked under the eaves and concealed within matching kitchen units are the laundry appliances, with a drinks and cocktail preparation area on top. A line of units between the kitchen and the dining and living area, creates a visual partition while keeping the area connected, creating a fabulously spacious socialising area. Dining Area: The dining area features a unique, upcycled, rectangular dining table with a parquet inlay, and six super comfy dining chairs. French windows behind the table open to a Juliette balcony, which looks out to the original hayloft's winch and the rear of beautiful Postlip House. Living Area: The gorgeous living area is furnished with a six-seater, bronze-green, velvet, chaise sofa, with an upcycled coffee table, set up for guests to relax and view the Smart TV. Stylish floor lamps provide soft lighting to unwind with a book or simply stretch out while the chef of the group gets busy in the kitchen. At the far end of the open plan living space is a door that opens to two steps down to two double bedrooms and the family shower room. Bedroom Two: This cosy bedroom is furnished with a standard-size double bed, with bedside tables and reading lamps, a dressing table with a mirror, lamp and stool (not shown) and a tall chest of drawers all on a deep pile, grey carpet. There are three decorative hooks on the wall for hanging your clothes. The window provides a view across the courtyard to neighbouring Paddock and Chestnut Cottages and the countryside beyond. Bedroom Three: At the far end of the property, this large twin bedroom is furnished with two single (2'6") beds, which can be made up as a king-size bed on request, with bedside tables and reading lamps. The room has plenty of space for younger guests to relax in, for a couple to set up a travel cot or grandparents to retreat to for some quiet time. The dual aspect affords views across the courtyard and on to the woods beyond, while the stunning blue, woodland wallpaper provides a beautiful backdrop behind the beds. The bedroom has a dressing table with a touch light make-up mirror and two double wardrobes, and a cosy deep pile, grey carpet. Family Shower Room: This luxury family shower room features a walk-in shower with a large, round shower head and grey tiles, a wash basin with a vanity unit and mirror above, a toilet and a heated towel rail - all surrounded by stylish cream-coloured tiles. Outside The Hayloft has a fabulous outside entertaining and play area directly outside the front door, which is bordered by a hip-height wooden fence that separates it from a quiet area of Postlip House's gardens. It includes a wide patio with a dining area furnished with a large, rectangular dining table, six chairs and a cantilever parasol, and a charcoal BBQ that easily cooks enough food for six guests. To the far side of the patio is an area for relaxing with two rattan-style sofas, armchairs and a drinks table. On the upper level, immediately inside the main entry gate from the gravel courtyard, is a children's play area with a wooden swing set and slide positioned on artificial grass. Please respect all gates signposted ‘Private'. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils -

Wow!!! We could not fault the cleanliness, the super quality of the bedding / towels and the welcome bottle of fizz was a great touch !!!!

It is beautifully appointed and very comfortable. We cooked several meals; the kitchen was well equipped and definitely a wonderful space to work in. We intended to do some Cotswold Way walking and were so pleased that the trail system was easily accessible nearby. Highly recommend this great property! ##### Donna B.

The only comment I have is that for the price it would have been nice to have a bit more of a welcome pack (maybe some nice eggs from those fab hens), some bread perhaps? It was very much appreciated that milk and Prosecco were left as well as the coffee/tea bits and bobs. Maybe some butter or olive oil too? Also, shower gel/shampoo/conditioner ? These are added extras that can really go a long way in the customer experience and it means you don't have to bring everything with you. I think price wise and comparing to other similar places we've stayed these extras really were useful. Other than that it was perfect and we do hope to return soon. We have already recommended to friends and family ! Many thanks again, lovely stay Fiona and Mark This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charlotte B. 3 May 2024 #### Lovely short break in Winchcombe We really enjoyed our time in the Hayloft. Beautifully presented, with high quality fixtures and fittings. The beds were really comfortable with sumptuous linen and towels. Abundant hot water, lovely showers and bath. My only comment would be that it would have been good to have more than 6 knives plates etc. ##### Charlotte B. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 12 Aug 2023 #### Family trip to Winchcombe 6 of us stayed at the Hayloft with a baby & dog. Perfect location for exploring the Cotswolds. Set in lovely grounds with great private outdoor area. Found great walks on the all trails app from the doorstep. Lovely pubs bakeries and places to eat in Winchcombe and only 30 mins from Cheltenham and Bourton On The Water. Would highly recommend!

It is kept up very nicely with clearly updated amenities. This particular cottage would be perfect for a family with young children as it even has a great yard space with a play structure! The entire property was absolutely stunning and just a short walk into town. I highly recommend it! ##### Lindsay K. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 12 Aug 2022 #### Very lovely place with no faults! Absolutely beautiful! Lovely property, very spacious and has everything you would need. Lovely little extras to make it special and so peaceful. One thing we would make a note of, the main gate into the property is very very stiff and a few times we struggled a lot. This would need looking at. Other than that, it was a perfect stay! This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ann E. 21 Aug 2025 #### Excellent Family Retreat Our stay from start to finish was hassle free. Booking with Bolthole Retreats was so easy, their staff are friendly and approachable. They were very knowledgeable about the properties and the area. This helped us to narrow down our selection to three! Their confirmation of your booking is online and includes all the information you could want or need, plus they offer discounts into many of the attractions in the Cotswolds. Ideal if you are a family to help keep the costs down! The Hayloft itself has absolutely everything you could want or need - a true home from home. We didn't find ourselves looking for, or needing anything. The hosts are responsive and delightful. The set up of the Hayloft means it is basically almost on one level, just two steps down to two bedrooms and a bathroom, with the third bedroom and ensuite being off to the side of the kitchen and on the same level. The property is ideal for multi-generational families too. The garden is secure and fenced, with a small play area of a slide and two swings. Kept the grandchildren happy for hours! We enjoyed listening to the chickens further up the garden and even took some fresh laid eggs home! To sum up a great hassle free holiday and the weather was superb too! ##### Ann E.

We especially loved the outside space. Negatives were there was no heating for the first 24 hours and no alternative offered. We reported this shortly after arrival when all our attempts to follow the instructions failed. We were told to contact the next morning if the heating continued to fail and the two messages left were not picked up till late afternoon so the heating wasn’t fixed till that evening. It made the first evening and morning uncomfortably cold. There was also a continuing leak in the Master Bedroom en-suite that we reported twice. Whilst the kitchen was well stocked, we would suggest scissors and oven gloves are essentials that were missing This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra d. 1 Nov 2023 #### A wonderfull house Es una casa preciosa, confortable, con todas las comodidades de un hogar.

Lots of information was provided in advance, which was really helpful. I would thoroughly recommend staying here. ##### Sylvia Stevenson This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Georgina H. 24 Jan 2023 #### Family weekend away We had a fabulous time at the Hayloft. Well equipped and nicely designed space. Beautifully appointed and in a lovely countryside setting. Only a couple of little negatives to note: Some of the party did find the sofa a little uncomfortable - as the cushions are angled down making it feel as if you are going to slide off. For the cost of the stay we were expecting a few more essentials to be provided such as shampoo, shower gel, more kitchen towel etc. More than one set of cutlery and crockery would be recommended, especially when only two dishwasher tablets were left for our use. As a party of 6 who like to cook and entertain it was challenging. The pepper mill was empty and the milk element of the coffee machine did not work. Niggles aside we would certainly return! ##### Georgina H. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca F. 23 Nov 2022 #### Fabulous stay! We had a wonderful time staying at the hayloft with my in laws, my husband and daughter and two dogs. It’s beautifully done and everything looks new and of such a high quality. Everything was well thought out throughout the accommodation and plenty of space for all of us. We are regular visitors to the Cotswolds and this is the nicest place we have stayed! I’m sure we will be back at some point. ##### Rebecca F.

It was a perfect location to explore the area. The accommodation had everything we could need as well as a lovely walk straight from the front door! Would definitely recommend. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Lords of the Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Lords-Of-The-Manor-Hotel.h17766135.Hotel-Information) > > [The Colesbourne Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Colesbourne-Inn.h3810136.Hotel-Information) > > [The Charlton Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Charlton-Boutique-Hotel.h84515831.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Bank Rooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Old-Bank-Rooms.h60035126.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham-Cotswolds](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Cheltenham.h65899.Hotel-Information) > > [The Plough Bed and Breakfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Plough-Inn.h12926879.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Manse Hotel Bourton by Greene King Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Old-Manse-Hotel-Bourton-By-Greene-King-Inns.h3075291.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lansdowne](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Lansdowne.h2250337.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Greenway-Hotel-Spa.h520203.Hotel-Information) > > [The Wheatsheaf Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Wheatsheaf-Inn.h1218872.Hotel-Information) > > [Ellenborough Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Ellenborough-Park.h27157.Hotel-Information) > > [The Slaughters Country Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Slaughters-Country-Inn.h5484211.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bell at Stow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Bell-At-Stow.h35819374.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mousetrap Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Mousetrap-Inn.h2294168.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old New Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Old-New-Inn.h37164164.Hotel-Information) > > [Broadlands Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Broadlands-Hotel.h2631331.Hotel-Information) > > [Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Grosvenor-Pulford-Hotel-Spa.h790572.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stag at Stow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Stag-At-Stow.h15876871.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lamb Inn Great Rissington](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Lamb-Inn-Great-Rissington.h4592088.Hotel-Information) > > [The Porch House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Porch-House.h4595892.Hotel-Information) > > [The Frogmill](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Frogmill.h23324533.Hotel-Information) > > [Cowley Manor Experimental](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Cowley-Manor.h1662540.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyck Hill House Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Wyck-Hill-House-Hotel-And-Spa.h558527.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Oakey Cottage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Cotswold-Cottage-Gems-Oakey-Cottage.h67269735.Hotel-Information) > > [The Dial House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Dial-House.h3883874.Hotel-Information) > > [Rising Sun Hotel by Greene King Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Rising-Sun-Hotel-By-Greene-King-Inns.h63601.Hotel-Information) > > [The Slaughters Manor House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-Slaughters-Manor-House.h790467.Hotel-Information)
