Battens Farm Cottages B&B

Farmstay near castlecombe Owner Mike is friendly and service and his breakfast cooking was good. One thing I feel can further improve is, when we arrived at the hotel around 1700hrs it was already total darkness as we are travelling in winter Dec 2024. Mike should install a lamp by the sign board where the instructions for the guests, to guide the guests to the instruction’s board, as the winter darkness make it challenging for us. He should also change the blackboard to others board as the chalk on the blackboard fade when we arrived, making it hard for us to read. Other than this, all is good, a nice place to stay and experience.

Great family night away We had a lovely one night stay in the cottage. Great for self catering and enjoyed having stables outside where we could see the horses. Lots of space and a nice log fire to enjoy. The breakfast was delivered to the cottage at our chosen time and was really tasty.

The property was very big, heating wasn’t sufficient enough to get the property warm, very noisy floor boards and next door sounded like they were coming through our cottage there was no wash caddy’s in the showers, wasn’t enough choice of tea coffee no milk not enough light outside insufficient kindling and paper to light the wood burner and one choice of breakfast would be good to offer cereal

Amazing cottage, great location, great breakfast A dream stay. Lovely cottage on a working farm just a few minutes drive from Castle Combe and Chippenham. The hosts were lovely, the cottage was warm and homely with an amazing log burning fire. Each morning, a freshly cooked breakfast is brought to your door at a time of your choosing. Would highly reccommend to all.

Exceptional I'm only giving this exceptional simply because there's no higher accolade. The cottage was fantastic, the breakfast was one of the best I've had. Comfy, quiet and a home from home. Best nights sleep I've had while away.

Incredible stay with delicious breakfast Stayed here for 2 nights, enjoyed every second of it. Such a peaceful and relaxing environment. The building was clean and welcoming, upon arrival milk and butter were left in the fridge for us- very cute touch. Secluded outside area outside the cottage which was lovely to enjoy the fresh air in the evenings. TV and WiFi both available in the cottage, daughter was very happy about this but surprisingly found herself not using her phone or iPad much at all! She was happy to watch the horses and enjoy being outside instead! The owner Mike was very friendly, gave us advice and recommendations when needed but left us alone for the most part which we personally like. The breakfast was delivered fresh each morning, what an amazing breakfast it was too. Would very happily go and stay again
