Byfield House was beyond wonderful from our first email exchange with Jill and Brett. Their professionalism in trying to ensure a comfortable match between the goals of their guests and the nature of their home was exceptional. Communication was efficient and informative. Brett met us on the platform at the train station and gave us a brief tour of the... More

We stayed in the gorgeous garden room again over Easter 2013 and had a wonderful relaxing time. The warmth of the welcome from Jill and Brett is so very special and the efforts that they go to to make your stay wonderful is unsurpassed by anywhere we've stayed before. We were there last year too and they suggested even more... More

Staying at Jill and Brett's wonderful home is an opportunity that shouldn't be passed up. Aside from the actual house (which is amazing) their hospitality is surpassed by none. As soon as you walk in the door you feel like your a long lost friend who is being welcomed back to stay a few nights. They genuinely love what they... More

We were very fortunate to stay for 4 nights in the garden room in April. Jill and Brett went out of their way to ensure that our stay was the best it could possibly be!! The accommodation was wonderful and surpassed all our expectations. Jill and Brett have the knack of anticipating all you could possibly desire and more! Painswick... More

What a marvelous find! Reviews can only understate this absolutely fabulous experience. We were seeking total relaxation and we had it, - from the moment of welcome by Jill and Brett and their four-legged friends! Following tea and cake, we were shown around their amazing home, full of history (and antiques!) and immediately felt that we were part of the... More

From our first communication with Jill we sensed our stay at Byfield House would be a special experience. Jill and Brett are extremely welcoming hosts who live in an historic home which they have decorated with amazing furnishings, artworks and artifacts. They generously spent time showing us through their beautiful home and shared many interesting stories about the house, their... More

.... Byfield is lovely. Can't really add much to what's been said before but Jill and Brett are the loveliest hosts I feel I must add a glowing review after every stay. By the way, the upstairs is very nice, too (and dare I say a little toastier for those cold March / Aprils we have these days!).

We stayed one night during the week en route to Cornwall, and the only bad thing was that we weren’t staying longer. The house is such a wonderful old Cotswold stone building with a lovely big garden which was perfect for our greyhound. We stayed in the Garden Room which was charming and comfy, with a lovely big bed, it... More
