• Charles (9/5): Lovely quioet farmhouse stay . - Lovely breakfast. Huge room.
• valerie (9/5): - Excellent breakfast, very interesting place with lots of history. Very nice owners. Nothing!
• David (10/5): My stop at Abbey Farm felt like staying at a friend's home: warm welcome, comfortable & cosy stay - Abbey Farm was easy to find and provided plenty of private parking. Jenny provided a wonderfully warm welcome and showed me to my very spacious room and equally spacious private bathroom. Lovely cosy feel to the whole property. Really can't think of anything material, Jenny & the venue provided everything...maybe biscuits to accompany the complimentary tea/coffee station...?
• Sarah (10/5): - We had a lovely stay at Abbey Farm. The room was very spacious and comfortable and the breakfast was fantastic. The location was so peaceful and scenic.
• Colin (1/5): - I have used Booking.com many many times in the past and never had any major problems. Until this time. We needed a room near Nottingham on March 23rd 2026. I picked Abbey Farm as it was the nearest one to our location at a price of £89. The payment option used was PayPal. When the PayPal payment was processed by Booking.com, the notification on their Web page stated that the room was no longer available and that i should choose alternate dates or book another property. I did this immediately and upon checking later, found that the original room had been confirmed by the hotel and that payment had been taken. I contacted Abbey Farm and spoke to a lady who was of the view that id booked it and therefore she was entitled to her money. I explained the mix up by Booking.com and she wished me luck i having any success with them. I contacted Booking.com and was assured that the payment would be refunded and that the hotel would contact me. This never happenned. I had to resort to opening a claim through PayPal which eventually reimbursed me. Terrible customer service by Booking.com. The fact I was charged for something I did not use
• James (10/5): Fantastic stay, no complaints 10/10 - Lovely countryside location with fantastic hosts who looked after us and provided a full English for breakfast N/A
• Prescott (10/5): - Wow! Tranquil stay with massive comfortable bed and room, warm and friendly host and fantastic views from the room. Can't fault our stay, it was like spending time with our favourite relatives.
• Luke (10/5): Excellent - The host Jenny was so welcoming, lovely and genuine, its so refreshing compared to a chain hotel stay with better value. Breakfast was exceptional. Superior double room was very spacious with a big bathroom. All the facilities expected were there. I highly recommend staying here, as you will be very well looked after. Nothing.
• Taylor (10/5): -
• Rosie (10/5): I would love to stay again. - Lovely hosts and very caring when I was ill. Allowed a later departure time. Very much appreciated. The location is beautiful with a lot of history attached to the house and ruined Abbey in the grounds. Beautiful lake with nesting swans. Huge room with sofa and large comfortable bed, overlooking the lake. Huge separate bathroom (bath and shower) for use with that room. Masses of towels. Good cooked breakfast. Wonderful to have the peace and tranquility. The only drawback for me was the kettle was on the floor with a short lead and I can't easily bend down.
• Tina (10/5): A great stay!! - The host was super friendly, the room was spacious and comfortable, and the breakfast was plentiful and perfectly cooked! Let's not forget the view out of the bedroom window was amazing!! Will definitely be back x Nothing
• Kim (10/5): Very welcoming host , beautiful surroundings - Very rustic and lots of history , lovely big rooms
• Joanne (9/5): Traditional B&B on a family owned farm, kind and generous hosts with a fabulous breakfast - The owners are fabulous, the cooked breakfast was amazing and the location. The stairs are quite difficult to navigate for anyone with mobility issues
• Anne-Marie (8/5): -
• Timothy (10/5): Lovely b and b will stay there again if in the area. - Lovely old farmhouse in beautiful surroundings. Nothing
• Jake (10/5): -
• David (10/5): Fascinating place to stay - Very interesting location, spacious room and ensure, very nice breakfast, very friendly and helpful host, good value for money. Host explained the interesting historical background to the location. Plenty of parking space. Nothing
• Adam (10/5): Absolutely fantastic and thoroughly worth it! - Genuinely a fantastic all round experience. Location is gorgeous, the house itself is stunning, Jenny was incredibly friendly and went out of her way to accommodate and help us. 11/10 Was a shame we were only staying one night.
• Matthias (10/5): Ein Hammer, absolutes Highlight…. - Die Ruhe und die Bauernhof-Atmosphäre, sowie das Ambiente, innen wie aussen, einfach perfekt zum Entspannen. Konnte diesmal leider nur 1 Tag bleiben, komme auf jeden Fall wieder!
• Norman (10/5): - Breakfast was fab. Jenny couldn't have been more welcoming or accommodating. Nothing.
• DANIEL (9/5): Brilliant- Don’t do a Travelodge when you can come here and be treated like a king. Superb - Everything was great, the host, the breakfast, the room, location. Would definitely recommend and return. Don’t want to comment on minor details. Not really worth it because it has no negative effects on my stay
• Lewis (10/5): lovely and peaceful - The house and grounds were beautiful and quiet, perfect to relax after work. Breakfast was perfect each morning too.
• Marcia (10/5): Great room lovely peaceful location beautiful views - The breakfast was delicious and our host was extremely friendly and helpful The small step in the bathroom. I tripped on it. Albeit I was warned!
• Chris (10/5): Great hosts, very helpful with tips for where to eat out, a hearty breakfast. Some very interesting local knowledge for - Quite rural location Nothing
• Darren (10/5): Brilliant - Very pretty with lovely history
• Pam (10/5): - Lovely hosts. Enormous, comfortable room and bathroom. Breakfast was delicious, and cooked fresh. My OH even commented on how good the coffee was.
• mark (9/5): For anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay, this accommodation comes highly recommended - The breakfast was absolutely delicious — a proper English breakfast cooked to perfection, with beautifully seasoned sausages and black pudding (my favourite, and something far too many places leave off the menu). It was the kind of breakfast that sets the tone for the whole day. The host was exceptional: warm, personable, and genuinely attentive, creating an atmosphere that felt more like staying with a thoughtful friend than a stranger. The location is stunning, and the building itself is steeped in character — every nook and cranny feels like it has a story. Despite normally struggling to sleep, I drifted off effortlessly and slept like a log right through until my alarm. The deep silence, the soft darkness, and the feeling of being truly out in the countryside created a level of calm I rarely experience. All in all, a wonderfully memorable stay that I would happily recommend to anyone looking for comfort, charm, and a little escape from the world. There honestly wasn’t anything I disliked. If I were being incredibly picky, a wall-mounted shower gel dispenser might be a useful addition — mainly because I always forget to bring mine. But that’s a very minor point in an otherwise flawless stay.
• Philips (10/5): -
• Sarah (10/5): Peaceful, historic site hosted by very welcoming people. Fantastic breakfast and good value. - Wonderful hosts and superb breakfast. An interesting historic site with connections to Henry V11 who apparently stayed in the Abbey the night before the battle of Bosworth Field. Abbey Farm was built on the ruins of the Abbey. There are still ruins next to the house. Beautiful and peaceful spot. Thank you for having us.
• Mark (10/5): -
• Jill (9/5): Very friendly welcome. Warm and cosy. Stunning location. Peaceful surroundings and wonderful wildlife. - Very old with atmosphere but clean and cosy feel. Liked it all
• glen (8/5): -
• Alan (9/5): Great location for the NEC with a lovely host. - The location worked really well for me as I was attending a show at the NEC. It was about 30 mins away. The host was lovely, as were the breakfasts. Bed was also very comfortable. The bathroom is a bit dated. The light above the sink didn’t work which meant it was a bit dark for shaving. The shower also isn’t very powerful, as others have observed.
• Elisabeth (10/5): - Lovely stay at a great place! Beautiful location, v comfy bed and a great breakfast with a lovely host. Thank you xx
• May (10/5): - The location was brilliant, very quiet and beautiful.

• adam (10/5): Fantastic highly reccomend - Grest stay, huge room in beautiful surroundings..Very clean and comfortable. Jenny was friendly and helpful, I felt spoilt..and superb breakfast. Thoroughly reccomend Nothing, I stop away a lot and this is one of the best
• Michael (10/5): Lovely stopover. Charming property. Great breakfast. Host is lovely and happy to chat about the history as well as recom - Beautiful old property with charm and character, as well as a fascinating history, with a remarkable connection to Henry Tudor, and monastic ruins in the garden! Easy to find and easy parking. Nothing
• Cliff Underhay (7/5): -
• Ray (9/5): -
• Nikki (10/5): Beautiful location. Excellent host - Beautiful and peaceful surroundings . Jenny is a super host, very good breakfast. Home to home. Very good value for money. none
• Rhodri (8/5): Amazing Breakfast great rooms - Host and Breakfast was exceptional. Location was great for where I needed to be The breakfast
• Marcus (9/5): Lovely short stay at Abbey Farm - Lovely host, great breakfast, comfortable room, peaceful setting
• Fausto (9/5): Superb - A very nice place I liked the views it has plus it is super cilencioso a little away from the city but worth the staff very friendly and attentive to any circumstance.
• Bruce (10/5): A fantastic stay at a lovely location with delicious breakfast! - We really enjoyed our one night stay at Abbey Farm; we stayed in the superior double room which is very spacious and an equally huge en-suite bathroom. Everything was clean, the bed was super-king (or bigger) and super comfortable, and the views across were lovely. We enjoyed sitting in the grounds and Jenny and Bill were lovely hosts; Jenny’s cooked breakfast was absolutely delicious. Very pleased to have found Abbey Farm and would look forward to staying again when we are in the area.
• Mrs (8/5): Very good - Delightful hostess. Good breakfast. Welcoming family with accurate useful local information. Interesting historic location - by a ruinous Cistercian Abbey. We liked the informal rustic feel to the place. Nothing.
• Simon (10/5): Tranquility - Beautiful spot and Jenny is fantastic , I locked myself out in the night and had to get her up. She was so lovely about it, I’m not sure I would have been. 🤣 Nothing
• Trevor (10/5): Wonderful! - .A warm welcome and history of this fascinating place from owner Jenny. The lovely building, the ruined Abbey, and the lake were all outstanding. Lovely peaceful location, large comfortable room and lovely breakfast.
• Keith (10/5): A really good nights sleep - Quite location very comfortable with an excellent breakfast
• Syeda (10/5): Brilliant Stay - Just what I needed! - If you are looking for a space away from the business of the city - this is it! Jenny is one of the kindest people I’ve met - and it seems like her energy is infection because the other guests I met on my stay here were just as nice. I traveled up here for a friends wedding - and as a single solo traveller it can always be a little nerve wracking especially if you are also looking for a bit of seclusion to get away from a busy city. I felt so safe staying at Abbey Farm - Jen went above and beyond - and even gave me a lift back to the station! I have very sensitive skin, I didn’t have any issues here. The bed was very clean. The location can be difficult if you arrive very late or don’t drive. I was looking for something very remote and for that it was perfect - but if you want to travel around the area a bit, defo recommend either driving down or hiring a car.
• Barney (9/5): Wonderful host who made me welcome despite being late. Great cooked breakfast too. - Location is lovely, with the building nestled amongst beautiful scenery and interesting buildings.
• Redbootsman (10/5): Exceptional - Love the location, the history, fascinating stuff... Nothing
• Grace (10/5): Exceptional - It’s so quiet and beautiful, the host Jenny and Ben are very nice and helpful.
• Andrew (10/5): Excellent - Everything Nothing
• James (10/5): What a lovely place! - Beautiful place and area. Extremely friendly people and everything you could want from a stay in the countryside. Highly recommended!
• Bruce (8/5): Nice Setting - Really nice location, lovely old building with nice views. Slightly dated furnishings, breakfast not very nice.
• Katie (10/5): Wonderful stay - This B&B is a bit magical. The owner, Jenny, lives in a beautiful old wisteria-covered house set in lovely grounds (including a lake and gardens). I had a huge and very comfortable room, more of a suite really, with gorgeous views of the Merevale Estate. Jenny is lovely, and was kind enough to make me a full cooked breakfast at 7 am. I was travelling for work, but this stay was a total pleasure! I personally like firm mattresses, and the one in my room was quite soft - but that’s just personal preference.
• David (9/5): Lovely stay near Atherstone - We loved the location, the room, the breakfast, and the welcome. Jenny was so lovely and knowledgeable about the history of the immediate area.
• Martin (10/5): Host Jen is the B&B treasure of Abbey Farm - The Jewel in this property is the host, Jen. A living history book that simply loves what she does & provides the very best she is able to provide for her guests. A genuine warmth & welcome from her sets the tone of the stay & is a lasting memory that leaves with you as you travel onwards., that along with her fantastic full English that is.
• Andrew (10/5): Perfect - Wonderful place with a wonderful host
• Philip (9/5): Peaceful stay in a lovely property - Very quiet property so excellent for a good nights sleep. The room was huge and comfortable. Lovely welcoming host who was very helpful and attentive. Breakfast was lovely. Very dark on a night due to location and no street lights etc so perhaps would take a torch next time if staying when it gets dark early. But the peace and quiet makes up for it!
• John (10/5): Exceptional -
• Richard (8/5): Charming property, convenient location, freindly host, excellent breakfast. Would stay again. -
• Joshua (10/5): Exceptional -
• Georgijus (10/5): Exceptional -
• Keith (8/5): A secluded stop over for a comfortable nights rest - Breakfast was very good, Location exceptionally quiet and nothing was too much trouble. Only the weather was disappointing
• Jackie (8/5): Fabulous location and very good welcome on arrival and breakfast was fantastic too. - Fabulous location and Jen was very friendly. The breakfast was fabulous and we would recommend this to friends and family. My husband and I were in a room on the top floor of the farm house and unfortunately the room was extremely cold on our return after a family wedding and it took us a while to warm up....
• Lisa (10/5): Lovely B&B highly recommend! - In a beautiful setting with lovely hospitality provided by owner Jenny! Room was very spacious, clean and well presented. Jenny was very welcoming and made a delicious cooked breakfast! Would highly recommend and hope to return again sometime next year. N/a
• Peter (10/5): Lovely - Lovely location overlooking lake. Period property full of character. Huge king size bed. Great breakfast cooked by the hosts who were so welcoming. My wife has mobility problems and stone steps to front door would benefit from a handrail.
• Kay (10/5): Lovely overnight stay, suited us perfectly and close to friends wedding venue nearby. - Quiet location, scenic views of the countryside. Spacious bedroom and bathroom. Clean and comfortable. Warm and friendly host. No complaints!
• Jonathan (10/5): A Sumptuous Stay in a Beautiful Picturesque Location. - The View, The Room, The Owner, The Breakfast, The Signage Outside was a little difficult to see when driving and unsure if we were in the right place.
• David (9/5): Superb - Jenny was a welcoming and engaging host. A charming and gracious house, full of history and character. Quiet location, spacious bedroom with an excellent breakfast. Stayed just one night but wouldn't hesitate to return!
• Mark (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lesley (8/5): A lovely stay with an added historical bonus. - As we are very interested in history, the farms location was a delight and the history about the area from Jenny, the host, was an added bonus. The house was full of character. We are returning for another night's stay on our way home from holiday. Our shower was problematic.
• Nigel1969 (10/5): Exceptional -
• John (10/5): Our Favourite in England and Ireland - A special treat. - This was the pick of all the outstanding accommodation that we booked in England and Ireland. From the moment of arrival as we viewed the vista of the beautiful building with swans floating on the lake in the background we were wrapped. And it got better - from the time our host welcomed us and took us to our beautiful room overlooking the beautiful surrounds and our ensuite we fell in love with Abbey Farm. The elegant dining room was magical for our delectable made to order breakfasts, again with beautiful vistas and an amazing collection of artifacts. Truly peaceful and special. We were on a long holiday with large suitcases so the stair climb was a bit of a challenge.
