A true home from home experience

The converted barn was exceptional and had everything you need to feel at home and in a perfect location. Best of all, waking up to the cows. Claire and Richard should feel very proud of their achievements in offering such outstanding accommodation. Definitely would recommend Hook Farm and if we return to the Uk we will without a doubt stay hopefully in The Goose House barn.

A perfect stay in a perfect cottage

Our cottage (Peacock Pen) was lovely. It was very clean, warm, comfortable and had everything we needed - we couldn’t have asked for more. We were warmly welcomed by Claire, Richard and James when we first arrived which got our stay off to a great start - our thanks to each of them. We would highly recommend the cottages to anyone considering booking.

Peaceful and Relaxing

A lovely, well equipped property in a good location - perfect for visiting our family and the local area. The proprietors were very friendly, helpful and accommodating and the property was immaculately clean with special measures having been put in place to address Covid-19.

Extremely happy with every aspect from initial contact through to our arrival and stay.

Very comfortable, clean and welcoming. Ideally situated for Swindon and Wilstshire surrounds. Richard and Claire were very accommodating and the immediate surrounds were fabulous which included the deer coming through the paddock behind the cottage of an afternoon. Very quiet location but within minutes of motorway making access very easy. Highly recommend Hook Farm Cottages for any length of stay.

Absolutely perfect.

We fell in love with the cottage. Between us both we couldn't think of 1 single thing about Hook farm that is a negative. We only left yesterday and were already making another booking for next month.

Comfortable home from home

We had a great stay in this cottage, we had everything we needed for a comfortable relaxing holiday.The rooms were of a good size. At home we have a king size bed, but this bed was even bigger than the one we have. It usually takes me a day or so to sleep well in a different bed, but on this occasion I was out like a light every night and got a good 7 or 8 hours sleep.

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
As a working farm and family home for 4 generations, Hook Farm Cottages offers guests a home away from home. Richard & Claire and their family warmly welcome you to the cottages, they live adjacent to the cottages so are always on site to provide any local knowledge or assistance during your stay.

Alongside the holiday cottages, the family also runs a successful dairy enterprise - the farm is home to over 280 Holstein Friesian cows producing 3.5m litres of milk per year for dedicated supply to Waitrose Supermarkets. All the female dairy calves are reared on the farm to follow into the milking herd. At present we are rearing approx 240 calves and young dairy cattle, giving a total of nearly 530 animals.

We are more than happy to provide an escorted tour of the farm and the parlour during milking, subject to prior arrangement. Appropriate clothing and footwear are highly recommended!
