Clearbrook Barn Reviews

Andrea
An absolute gem. Truly idyllic. The owner, Amanda is kindness itself.
Helen
Beautiful location. Host Amanda was went above and beyond. Even provided candles during power cut! Hot tub was a joy and had great evening in BBQ hut. Cottage has all home comforts and being greeted by the alpacas each day was a bonus!
Richard
Relaxing stay in this property, welcomed with the Christmas tree ready, a cracker and bottle of Prosecco, a great start. Easy to find, peaceful location, cosy with local space to walk. Do bear in mind if booking, there is no shop in the village, and the pub does not open every day. There are two shops and two pubs in Brill, 2 miles away, both proviRead morede food. Also suggested to visit Thame, and Aylesbury, plus, of course, Oxford. I am sure you will enjoy your stay. Hide

Lovely property, furnished to a very high standard, probably too good for dogs ( light carpets throughout) Set in a lovely village with an abundance of grassed areas to walk your dogs, also a nice country pub within half a mile. Owner was both friendly and accessible.

Nice location, tranquil gardens, continous availability of hot tub that was part of the property use & very relaxing. The owner, Amanda was very helpful & a lovely person. Gardens were great and fully enclosed for our dogs, so very reassured they were free to roam around. Lovely village and charming locals.

The cottage was absolutely gorgeous! The host was very welcoming , and decorated the place for us as it was our honeymoon, nice touch!

Everyone needs to stay at Clearbrook Barn. It was perfect in every way. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable and everything you could possibly need is supplied. It's a truly fabulous place and a great base to travel to all the wonderful places of interest. It was such a good feeling knowing that we were coming back to such a peaceful relaxing place after a busy day sightseeing. The host Amanda is the icing on the cake. A truly lovely lady inside and out. Highly recommended to all. Superb
Steve
Lovely peaceful location perfectly situated to explore local places of interest. Comfortable and stylish accommodation in lovely grounds that offer a variety of outdoor seating to relax, hot tub and barbecue hut. Amanda was the perfect host as she is relaxed, friendly and helpful but is also unobtrusive; she spoiled us with a (much appreciated) bot tle of Prosecco on our anniversary.! Our two dogs were also spoiled with their own towel, generous water bowl and good supply of treats!
Karen
The cottage was absolutely stunning. It was perfectly clean and had everything we required. The bed was amazingly comfortable and as someone who has regular back issues this can make or break a holiday. No sore back for a week!! Amanda provided an air cooler due to the extreme heat and this was welcomed by not only us humans but our 2 dogs also. Th e gardens were stunning and our 2 flatties enjoyed the unrestricted access. Amanda was a great host, always available if we needed her for anything.
Anne
Clearbrook barn is amazing and Amanda is delightful. Her grounds are truly stunning and a great place to kick back and relax. The dogs loved their stay too.
June
Lovely, highly recommended
Janice
This was our 3rd year running staying here and have already booked for next year! It's just so peaceful and relaxing with plenty of places to go and visit if you choose to do so but we just like to go and unwind in this lovely home from home with all it's lovely touches. Amanda is amazing and we can't forget Tom as well. Nothing is too much trouble and it's lovely to spend time with them as well. The hot tub is great to watch the sun go down in and to admire the lovely grounds and Alpaca's.
Karen
There are lots of unique and quirky characteristics in this property. The bed and sofa are very comfortable and there is great water pressure . But the USP are the beautiful gardens which are so relaxing and all lit up at night like a fairy grotto. Amanda and Tom are very friendly and helpful if needed. We loved our week and arrived home refreshed.
STEPHEN
Great location and facilities, theres loads to do at the barn, barbi and hot tub. The owner was great, Tom and Amanda made every effort to make us welcome, great spot for the dogs. The local area was great loads to do in just a short distance. We were so impressed that were going back. Highly recommended. Oh and the local pubs were spot on serving great food and beer.
Sheila
This is a wonderful and very comfortable. Cottage. Amanda, the owner looks after you very well and gives you a great welcome. This cottage is very five star Tony Taylor
Pat
Had a wonderful stay and our hosts Amanda and Tom were fab. They made us so welcome. Our little dog had the best time wandering around the gardens. The bed was very comfy(I am rather fussy regarding beds) . The cottage had everything we needed and is perfect for a relaxing stay. We used the hot tub every day which was lovely.
Laura
It was such a lovely holiday, Wallace and Monty the Alpacas were so lovely too. Really lovely stay will be back for sure!
Heather
Idyllic location, Clearbrook Barn is beautifully presented. Amanda is extremely accommodating and Wallace and Monty the Alpacas will instantly become your best friends if you wave a carrot at them. Loved the hot tub and beautiful grounds. The Bull and Butcher pub, which is a 10 minute walk away is very friendly and serves good food. We really enjoy ed our stay and would highly recommend.
Yvonne
We had a fabulous week at Clearbrook Barn, Amanda was the perfect host. We went to Clearbrook Barn for our 25th wedding anniversary and the balloons, prosecco and cake were a lovely surprise. The barn was really cosy and the gardens were beautiful. We loved seeing the alpacas whilst relaxing in the hot tub. Our dog had a fabulous time too. We were only a drive away from Bicester village where we parked up and caught the train into Oxford. The tour around the Bodleian library is a must.
Steve
Amanda ( owner) was brilliant and a perfect host. Very helpful. Lovely cottage and surrounding's. will be back
Stuart
We would happily recommend a stay at Clearbrook Barn, to anyone thinking of visiting (and if you're not..why not??) We had a wonderful stay over New Year, and could not have wished for more. Comfortable, homely feel and a lovely quiet location - The hot tub was such a bonus too. Fabulous hospitality from Amanda and Tom, especially on New Year's Eve - With an honourable mention to Mike for sourcing the Georgia Bulldogs game too. Ps... Wallace and Monty...simply wonderful!!
Tracey
We came for our honeymoon and wasnt disappointed. Balloons, banner, Prosecco on arrival. But thats Amanda our host. Nothing too much. Beautiful barn, tasteful decor. Very relaxing environment and very pretty garden. Centre parcs has squirrels and birds. Clearbrook has Wallace the alpaca; funny and adorable. He came to see us at our door for carrots n apples. Village pub ace with some great characters. Pheasant has amazing venison pie. Pointer pub is a must go to. Burford quaint.
Christine
What a fantastic find, totally relaxed the minute we arrived. Gardens are stunning and Wallace the Alpaca was such a sweetie waiting patiently for his daily carrot and putting up with our cockapoo. Local pubs are really dog friendly. Even though it was December I did use the hot tub and plan to go back in the summer to take full advantage. Amanda w as the most perfect host and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
Kirsty
We had an amazing stay, very memorable for my babys first holiday at 2 months old and also my husbands 40th birthday. We could not have asked for more. Perfect hosts (we will be back when the baby is older)
Sue
Absolutely fabulous stay. Will definitely be returning. A warm welcome, great facilities with lots to do in the area. Our dog loved it too!
Angela
We had a lovely break away, the hosts and Wallace the alpaca were all very friendly and welcoming. Its ideally placed to travel to so many local places of interest.

This is a really unique attraction and certainly worth a visit in our opinion.  Established in 1995 and situated in the heart of the Northamptonshire countryside this attraction will appeal to those looking for something a little different.  You can't ride the animals but you can trek alongside them and enjoy the fantastic scenery.  From farm tracks to country lanes the gentle animals will carry your rucksack for you along the way.  There are personally guided treks available all year round and you will have your own Llama for the trek.
