It was a really nice break at Lime cottage so very quiet and restful being away from the main road just the noise of the birds and sheep, it was very well equipped with everything you wanted comfy bed wood burner but didn't need this due to under floor heating, hosts James and Erica we really very welcoming with a lovely surprise of fresh eggs milkRead more and bread and butter would recommend this property and would certainly go back Hide

The cottage is set in a beautiful, quiet location. It had all the equipment we required. The furniture was unfussy, simple and adequate. We had a lovely, restful and relaxing week despite the weather.

A lovely place to spend a week just relaxing and winding down from the 9-5. Very comfortable - beautiful position in the owner's farm (we spent happy evenings just watching the new intake of Spring lambs running up and down) and nice woodland walk for our dogs. Very much enjoyed our visit.

OK so a peaceful location however 24 acres of land to explore, woodland walks was limited due to fallen trees etc plus with expectant sheep in the fields this was also out of bounds. There is a new bark park along the road which we paid to use to exercise our two dogs. property is tired and needs some TLC. Patio furniture to rear could be replaced.

Lime Kiln Cottage is in a beautiful, tranquil position within easy reach of Bampton. The cottage is warm and comfortable and equipped with everything we needed, a large very comfortable bed and a very spacious shower. There are paths to walk with your dog(s) and, if wanted, a large dog walking paddock Bampton Bark Park just 3 minutes up the road.
