Old Post House Barn

Beautiful self catering cotswold getaway

Lovely Cotswold barn conversion with ‘upside down living’, located in a pretty village.

The barn is situated in the heart of the pretty and friendly village of Ashton under Hill, which nestles at the foot of Bredon Hill and is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). We are just inside the Worcestershire border with Gloucestershire. Bredon Hill, which is one of largest outlier Cotswolds in the area, has gorgeous views and is popular with walkers, mountain bikers and horse riders.

We have a variety of national and local paths and ways in close proximity. The Wychavon Way goes through the village and the Cotswold Way starts at Chipping Campden, a twenty minute drive away. Why not drive out to the Malverns, a beautiful and ancient range of hills with breathtaking views. If you are a gardener, there are many fine examples to visit including Hidcote Manor and Batsford Arboretum. Historians can root out Roman ruins at Chedworth and medieval castles in Warwick and Kenilworth.

Weddings!

The barn occasionally hosts wedding party guests.  There was definitely a party atmosphere in the barn for this one a few years ago! Bride, bridesmaids and mother of the bride all changed into their wedding finery for the village ‘woodland wedding’ of Emma and Oliver in Emma’s grandparent’s garden. The bride looked stunning. After a great day, the happy couple spent a couple of nights in the barn. Emma kindly allowed us to post a few pictures. Big thank you to the new Mr & Mrs for choosing the barn and we hope they had a fabulous honeymoon!

Guest Review

We had a lovely 4 night stay at the Old Post House Barn. Thank you to Karen, the owner for a very warm friendly welcome and helpful information provided for the local area. The barn is very comfortable for 4 persons and was spotlessly clean and had all amenities required. Very useful off street unloading driveway and a parking space for one vehicle. Any additional vehicles can park directly at the front of the barn on the street. The barn is located in the lovely Village of Ashton under Hill with various walks directly from the barn. Great pub opposite with superb food. We shall be back! Darren,Morpeth

“Love, love, love it! The highlight has to be borrowing dominoes at the pub and playing until the early hours. Just don’t want to leave.”
