Had a lovely 4 night stay at Hawks Barn. It is a real home from home and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Awesome location for visiting the many sights the area has to offer, would have loved to have stayed longer.

Ideal location and helpful hosts.
Great communication with Max. Amber and Max were very helpful but mindful of our space, considering the proximity to their home. Excellent living space and location for walks. Personally recommend Malverleys Farm and Dining for a walk and coffee and cakes. Newly opened in June 23 - lunch/ dinner menu looks appetising too. 1 potential concern about the property, depending on who you're sharing with, the main bedroom is at the top of the stairs with access to the bathroom. The twin room is off the main room with a door - the main bedroom doesn't have a door so the people from the twin room can view you in bed. Again, something that needs to be highlighted the property details,in my opinion, and only an issue for some people. I would recommend this accommodation based on the correct configuration of your party.

A very relaxing and comfortable stay
Hawks Barn in beautiful Highclere was everything we thought it would be. Comfy beds, stunning decor, clean, well stocked kitchen and fridge for a full breakfast and green country views from every window. We did have an issue with the hot water however the problem was promptly rectified.
