Location was peaceful and idyllic. Quality of the bedding was perfect, and high threadcount. in-room amenities were great, and the coffee was good.

Handley Barn is set back from the road in 250 acres of farmland. The location benefits from stunning views and a very peaceful atmosphere. The rooms are built around a courtyard and have their own front doors so our guests can come and go as they please without feeling they are disturbing anyone. Mid week a continental breakfast is available in your room including fruit, bread, pastries, yogurt, juice and porridge pots and at the weekend our guests have the option of a cooked breakfast in the Barn. Our guests are made to feel very at home, and special requests will be catered for where at all possible. Guests are very welcome to use and enjoy the outside space. Parking is amble and secure.
George, Sam and family are working farmers. While busy, we are always here to help and advise on places to visit and where to eat. In the spring we are lambing and calving, and during the summer and autumn haymaking, silaging and harvesting.
Silverstone Circuit is 3 miles away to the main entrance. Towcester Racecourse is 4 miles away. Other things to do include Stow Gardens, golf courses at Whittlebury and Silverstone and further afield, Bicester Shopping Outlet is c. 30 minutes by car. Milton Keynes, Buckingham and Northampton are all 20-25 minutes away by car. Nearby pubs include The New Inn in Abthorpe which is 1/2 a miles away, or The White Horse in Silverstone which is 2 miles away. Towcester with a wide range of supermarkets and restaurants is 2 miles away.
