    This was like a home away from home. It was beautifully designed and appointed. For us, accessibility was important and it was easy for all of us to manage. Our hosts met us at the door and were very accommodating.

Bob, Barbara & Maggy
A very warm welcome to The Byre, the perfect place for a relaxing break and for exploring the beautiful county of Wiltshire. Located in the centre of Pewsey village, The Byre is a beautiful, newly renovated, self-contained two bedroom annexe of an 18th century thatched cottage on one level. It consists of a king bedroom, a small twin bedroom, a kitchen/diner/sitting room and a bathroom. It has been luxuriously fitted out with White Company and Mitre bed linen, towels, feather duvets and pillows, John Lewis beds and sofas and high quality new furniture. There is free Wi-Fi, a Smart television with Netflix, parking for one car and a small outside seating area with a table and chairs solely for guests. The accommodation is cosy and as neat as a pin.
The Owners: Maggy Lamb, Barbara Dalton and Bob Dalton have been friends for over forty years and decided to buy a house in Pewsey together for their retirement. They are very proud of their beautiful home and garden and offer a very warm welcome to their guests. Maggy and Barbara are classically trained musicians so you might hear the (delightful!!) strains of music wafting around.
