• Massimo (10/5): - Struttura fantastica inserita nella campagna inglese. Host molto accogliente
• MARTIN (10/5): Amazing setting - Night before my daughters wedding at Grittleton, so near to venue. Everything was execellent Amazing fresh organic breakfast
• Shao Yi (10/5): number 1 choice for your family getaway - We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Battens Farm B&B — truly a 10/10 experience from start to finish. The place itself is incredibly charming and peaceful, with one of the most beautiful sunrises we’ve ever seen. Waking up to soft morning light over the countryside was something really special. The owner was exceptionally warm and welcoming, making us feel at home the moment we arrived. The hospitality here is genuine and heartfelt — the kind that makes your stay memorable. Breakfast was simple yet hearty, and honestly felt like a home-cooked meal. It had that comforting, familiar quality that reminds you of your mom’s cooking — wholesome and satisfying. One of the most magical parts of the stay was the setting itself. There are horses right outside the property — it’s a real working farm, which adds so much character and authenticity to the experience. Everything about this place felt thoughtful, peaceful, and beautifully done. We would absolutely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a true countryside escape.
• Marcia (2/5): 💖 - Thank you so much guys! You are wonderful. We love it. 💖 Amazing 🤩
• Rana (10/5): - The cottage was such a unique experience! The cottage is well maintained and had all the required facilities. Breakfast was delivered hot and right on time and was delicious. Since it is on a farm, we also saw horses and cows. Overall a lovely experience.
• Oliver (4/5): Too many flies, otherwise perfectly agreeable - Nice fireplace with wood stocked. Peaceful location. Good kitchen amenities. Too many flies. Totally appreciate that this is a working farm. I grew up on a farm and am very used to flies and bugs however, there were upwards of 40 large bluebottles buzzing around in our bedroom when we arrived. We opened the window and encouraged them out, clearing the room and closing the window. When we came back in for bed they were everywhere again so I slept on the sofa as there were less flies in the living area. Appreciate that this is a working farm, but this was an uncomfortable amount of flies.
• Lara (10/5): - Struttura immersa nella campagna inglese, relax assoluto, cavalli stupendi e personale molto gentile, ci tornerei molto volentieri, grazie.
• Phil (10/5): -
• Alex (10/5): Perfect for our needs thank you so much - Everything…. Superb thank you Nothing
• Christopher (8/5): -
• Krystalle Alleen (10/5): Lovely Staycation - I love how quiet and serene the location is. None.
• Tim (10/5): - Great accommodation and scenery
• Ana (10/5): Amazing , relaxing and peaceful love the vintage accomodation ! - So quiet and the perfect getaway weekend with family and friends Little bit cold in other rooms
• Alison (7/5): - Location was lovely and conveniently located 4 miles from the wedding venue we were attending Struggled to sleep as no black out curtains and the bedding was a synthetic mix so quite warm
• Naomi (9/5): Beautiful house and surroundings. - Lovely Nothing. Maybe comfier bedroom chairs
• Neil (9/5): -
• Angela (10/5): -
• Mark (9/5): Great quiet stay - Perfectly located B & B, very quiet with a great breakfast. The hosts had left contact details should there have been any issues but I did not need to contact them during my stay.
• Véronique (8/5): Je reviendrai ! -
• Jacqueline (9/5): Great location, perfect host, really enjoyed our farm stay! - We loved Battens Farm Cottages. We stayed with our 3 children and they really enjoyed the farm, especially seeing the cows and horses through the window whilst eating our lovely traditional farmhouse breakfast cooked by Farmer Mike. The cottage was really clean and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved the property, but it could probably do with some darker curtains in a couple of the bedrooms. Otherwise perfect.
• Anita (7/5): -
• Jade (10/5): Great fun farm stay - Lots of rooms Was quite chilly but we made a fire to warm up
• Raix (8/5): - El lugar es precioso. Una ubicación con encanto en El desayuno era perfecto y a la hora indicada. Por la ventana se veía a los caballos en el establo. Un amanecer espectacular. Hacía un poco de frío en la habitación. Pusimos la chimenea, pero no se notaba mucho. En Booking debería indicarse que tiene cocina, porque de haber sabido que había fuegos, horno y nevera, habríamos llevado cena a casa. En las fotos y en la descripción no pone nada de ello. No queda muy bien dejar los jabones usados de los anteriores inquilinos en el baño o que dentro del microondas haya una taza con bebida que no ha sido limpiada. Denota falta de limpieza. La colcha de la cama pequeña es de un tamaño un poco justo.
• Hannah (10/5): Would love to come again, thanks for the breakfast! Delicious! - A Beautiful cottage with living area bathroom and 2 bedrooms overlooking stables.
• Kevin (10/5): Brilliant farmhouse, location and hosts. THANK YOU! - Beautiful space. Lovely location. Proper farm house! N/a
• Marco (10/5): - Tutto Niente
• Gerry (8/5): Quiet location with good breakfast - Quiet location, very convenient for our visit to Bath. Friendly owners, decent shower, great cooked breakfast delivered to the property.
• Jonathan (10/5): -
• Michael (1/5): Deeply frustrating and disappointing - Unable to access Failure to honour booking
• Melanie (9/5): Relaxing & lovely. Breakfast was outstanding! - Loved the remoteness! The beds were super comfy. Breakfast was incredible! Best bangers ever 😋. Nothing. Only negative would be not enough hooks to hang clothes, towels. Not a huge issue. The flies were a pain though. Inevitable on a farm but maybe some sort of fly catcher could be used??
• Lowe (8/5): Cosy cottage for a female friends get together with a great breakfast. - Cosy cottage with a wood burner .Perfect for friends get together, where we could chill in the cottage for the evening. Good cooked breakfast brought to the cottage at our chosen time. Quiet location apart from the odd sound from the horses. House was centrally heated, so warm. Kitchen was not as fully equipped as listed, no bowls ,dessert spoons, short of some glasses. As using also the Stalls cottage brought some over from there. Owners didn't respond to messages prior to the stay re information that wasn't listed in the description.i.e Would there be milk , tea/ coffee supplied. Were there supplies for the log burner or did we need to bring our own. Were towels provided. Doors to the bedrooms in the main cottage didn't close. Needs some TLC in places but this reflected in the price.
• Peter (9/5): Loved it, great breakfast, friendly staff, good location - Good size and layout, kitchen good size, bed really comfortable
• Yvette (10/5): Great location with plenty of space - Lovely cottage, great location and enough equipment in the property Plenty of space
• Silvia (9/5): - Some butter or margarine in the fridge to have with breakfast would have been good.
• Darren (9/5): Freelanders First Club - Lovely property, friendly owners fantastic location and breakfast to the door
• Lucy (9/5): Lovely little cottage on the farm really warm and cosy with a fantastic fresh cooked breakfast delivered to our door! Wo -
• John (9/5): -
• Sylvia (10/5): -
• Parsons (10/5): - Beautiful country settings.
• Beatrice (8/5): soggiorno rilassante e silenzioso - caldo e accogliente, letti comodi, belle docce la colazione non contemplava bevande, una luce si accende e spegne da sola durante la notte
• Husain (9/5): -
• Rob (10/5): -
• Madhura (9/5): - The location was beautiful- a wonderful farm cottage experience with lots of fruit trees and farm animals close to the house. Breakfast was really nice and the host was very friendly and quick to respond. We found it a bit too chilly, but I guess that is expected in a farm cottage.
• Helen (9/5): -
• Daniel (10/5): -
• Andy (9/5): -
• John (8/5): We were only there for one night but would have happily stayed there for longer. - The cooked breakfast was delivered to our door by the owner Mike at the time we requested and was delicious. The cottage has a fully equiped kitchen including a dishwasher and washing machine so anyone self-catering will find everything they need.
• jeanie (10/5): Highly recommended - Good breakfast, lovely cottage, very comfortable Horse stables across the courtyard, didn't bother us during our stay. Wake up in the morning and see the horses frollicking out in the field. Pretty remote, but beautiful location, and a lovely pub for dinner 5 minutes down the road. Nothing, it was a lovely stay. A very comfortable cottage. Right in the heart of the Cotswolds, and not that far from Bath. If you want an English farm experience , this is the place for you.
• BenB2001 (7/5): Pleasant stay - Hosts were friendly, location is great. Plenty of parking and lovely to see the horses and other farm workings. Breakfast was easy to organise and delivered on time to save having to prepare it ourselves. Towels and bedding were clean and comfortable. Nice toiletries were provided. Layout of the cottage is odd, hard to avoid but still worth knowing that there is a tight doorway at the top of the stairs into one bedroom through which all except one bedroom upstairs is accessed. Kitchen and kitchen equipment is limited.
• Laura (10/5): Perfection - Beautiful location Beautiful setting Beautiful property Lovely hosts Great brekkie
• Graciela (8/5): Agradable experiencia en un bello entorno rural - El entorno es precioso. Es una verdadera granja y es una hermosa experiencia poder alojarse allí. Si bien la casa nos pareció cómoda, muy agradable y con cocina y baños modernizados, no me gustó tanto la distribución de los dormitorios.
• Dave (10/5): - Very friendly host, a lovely private accommodation with great views. It’s a working farm and you’re greeted by beautiful horses - perfect!
• Tyler (8/5): - Very very spacious. Comfortable beds. Nice open plan living room / dining room. Breakfast was great. Location was a little out the way, but on this occasion it was fine for us.
• Ross (10/5): A very comfortable stay on a proper working farm. - The farm setting was delightful and the breakfast was superb. Nothing
• Lesley (10/5): Great farm stay. - Fab place to stay after visiting Highgrove. Loved being near the horses. Breakfast was delivered to the house and was very tasty. We only stayed one night but could definitely have spent more time here. Highly recommended. Nothing
• Paul (10/5): -
• Hayley (10/5): Best booking I’ve ever made - Absolutely amazing location. Seeing the animals on a working farm was brilliant for our kids. Breakfast was superb. Would love to come back. N/A
• Corinne (8/5): Charming farm stay - The farmhouse was spacious and full of character. It was a great value, it was nice to meet the animals, and the breakfast was great. Two of the beds were quite uncomfortable (the metal frame bed and the pink room)
• Jill (10/5): A perfect short break - It was a treat to stay at Batten Farm - lovely accomodation, fantastic breakfast, wonderful host and great location. We are now trying to find an excuse to return again!!! Nothing - it was all perfect
• Giacomo (9/5): Ottimo soggiorno - Bella fattoria nella campagna inglese con vari animali. Camera molto grande con salotto cucina e due camere da letto. Ottima colazione preparata su ordinazione e consegnata in camera È normale essendo una fattoria ma se devo trovare un difetto si fa fatica ad aprire le Finestre per l’odore delle stalle con i cavalli
• Ariadna (7/5): L’amo és molt simpàtic i atent. - La situació. Els llits que s’enfonsen.
• Mikhail (10/5): -
• Stefania (10/5): Luogo autentico e affascinante, la presenza dei cavalli arricchisce il soggiorno - Ambientazione autentica e bellissima
• kim (8/5): Lovely way to utilise the space on a lovely farm to generate income! - Lovely working farm in a lovely secluded location. We had a walk around and saw chickens, cows and of course the horses outside our window and out on the field. We had a bit of a hiccup to start as the room had not been cleaned. The host was apologetic and got it sorted. He suggested we take a short drive to Castle Combe which we did and it was absolutely beautiful. We had a curry delivered in the evening from a local takeaway and it was very quick and very good! The breakfast was bought to our room at our requested time and was amazing! It is a farm! So be prepared for cockerels crowing and horses neighing and horse boxes and early mucking out! If you embrace it, it’s absolutely beautiful.
• anne (10/5): Little piece of paradise - Lovely cottage,everything you could possibly need,comfy bed ,great shower,tv WiFi,and beautiful horses as neighbours.. Not a single thing !
• Jerofal (8/5): Un bon gîte à la ferme - Emplacement très calme, même si au milieu d'une ferme. Le petit-déjeuner personnalisé, servi à votre porte à l'heure demandée, est bon et copieux, idéal pour démarrer une journée de randonnée dans les Cotswolds ! Il faut savoir que tous les ouvrants ne s'ouvrent pas et que les fenêtres principales sont exposées au sud, attention s'il fait chaud !
• Marta (8/5): - El entorno de la casa El desayuno El dueño muy agradable
• Kathy (10/5): Nice BnB - something a bit different - Beautiful working farm. Horses outside the window, lovely old farm cottages, fruit trees. Very picturesque.
• Maguire (10/5): -
• JUDY (10/5): - This is a perfect place for leisure stay. Peaceful and comfortable. I like the quality of bedding, especially the towels on each bed matching with it. Beds are very comfortable. If I lived in London, I would come here as many times as possible, for the comfy stay, for the breakfast😋😋😋 None.
• Kiely (10/5): - Lovely place to stay for a bit of quiet and relaxation, breakfast delivered to the door in the morning was delicious
• Francesco (9/5): -
• Anthony (10/5): Rural farm cottage stay - Easy to find, wonderful welcome on arrival, spacious well-kitted out cottage, privacy for evening drink in the patio, quiet location and superb breakfast We only had one night there!
• Andrew (10/5): Perfect stopover in the countryside - Quiet, spacious, well-equipped, nice breakfast Nothing
• Amy (10/5): - Loved the location. Close to Castle Combe and easy drive to other parts of the Cotswolds. Peaceful and beautiful. Breakfast was fantastic! Wish I had more time there Nothing
• Riley (10/5): - Fantastic. Everything you could need. My daughter and I lived it and didn't want to leave. Horses in the field and they're so friendly. They let us stroke them, they walked over to us as soon as they saw us. The apartment is beautiful and there's a patio with a table to sit and and admire the view. Breakfast 😋 too. Will definitely go back. The ONLY complaint is incredibly minor......no fan and it was soooo hot.
• Lewis (10/5): A charming and relaxing stay with an outstanding breakfast! - The cottage was beautiful, very private and peaceful. The breakfast was delicious, i couldnt fault it! The Milk in the fridge was the tastiest ive ever had and the tennis courts were a great addition to the stay. The location was excellent for visiting the picturesque local villages! We had a lovely stay and would definitely come back.

• Lindsay (9/5): Lovely stay - wish it had been for longer - woukd stay again ! - Well equipped and comfortable - remote quiet location. Delicious breakfast brought to our cottage in the morning !
• Lee (7/5): -
• Deirdre (8/5): Very pleasant and great value for money - Great location and pretty setting very clean and excellent breakfast Floorboards creek a lot which is to be expected I suppose in such a traditional old building such as the farm house. I didn’t realise that the back bedroom could only be accessed through the front bedroom wasn’t an issue for us but maybe something other group bookings may need to consider
• Michael (9/5): -
• Wolfgang (10/5): Alles Super - Frühstück war sehr gut und frisch zubereitet
• Jacqueline (10/5): Cute rural farmhouse in a beautiful area. - Friendly host and spacious house. Plenty of beds for us.
