A lovely location, with very nice hosts. Unfortunately Storm Dennis intervened, and necessitated a 6+ mile round trip over fields to get in some food as the only access road out was flooded! This did not prevent us having an enjoyable week, but oh those squeaky floorboards!

Owner was very welcoming and after she showed us round she left us to enjoy our weekend with the offer of help if we needed it but we did not. Location was brilliant if you wanted to go out there would have been plenty of places to visit and cottage was further up the yard than the farmhouse so you felt you were away from it all which was nice. Very spacious cottage and the dining room running into kitchen was nice as we could play board games at the table whilst chatting to person who cooked. Views from back of cottage were superb, we sat in hall to look out which was very relaxing. It's a very creaky cottage but as the walls were thick, the noise did not appear to carry at night which was good.

Had such a lovely time at Foxcote. Very comfortable (if a bit creaky), big enough for entire family and suited all generations. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay

Lovely barn conversion on a working farm. Welcoming touches such as a basket of eggs and milk in the fridge. Towels and linen and very clean and fresh and kitchen incredibly well equipped. Owners very friendly and on hand but not obtrusive. Short drive to Ross on Wye which has most amenities you could need. Would definitely return.

The location was perfect. With lovely views and the sound of farming! Hosts were lovely and welcoming. showed us around the property and left us a big basket of fruit which was enjoyed by all. Rather a lot of leggy spiders in the corners of the rooms, which, when you have family who don't like spiders can be a bit trying having to remove them all. The double bed my husband and I were sleeping in was most comfortable, but unfortunately our door squeaked when you tried to close fully. So when you have to get up in the night you're very conscious of waking everyone up. But it didn't spoil the holiday at all really. We were a family of 7 adults and 6 children, 2 of which were under 2.

A lovely rental in a beautiful part of the country. Plenty to see and do within a short drive. It is a converted barn on a working farm. Yes it’s a bit creaky but so what? We had 4 children aged 9 and under so the fact it was a bit rustic was perfect. They loved playing hide and seek in and out of the house, playing in the enclosed garden (ideal for toddling guests) and in the front yard. Owners are lovely and very helpful. The basket of freshly laid eggs was most welcome on arrival. Some of the previous reviews are a tad harsh in my opinion. If you are looking for 5* luxury then maybe look elsewhere. But if you want a genuine large farm rental in the beautiful English/Welsh countryside then definitely consider New Court Farm.

Exec Summary?.....Big tired welcoming neglected priced to highly for whats there. Kids loved it. Positives first. It's a large barn (literally) remodelled into accommodation about 40 years ago by the look of the fenestration. And its about right if want is wanted is a place to not too careful or concerned with young kids about. The owners are friendly and busy farmers, so lambs and a couple of horses provided light relief to the grand children . Plenty of space for them to make dens and run about when it was raining. Nice views from the east side but why the large bushes and trees left to grow rampant on the nearby fence line, obstructing the best views? Pity, as it would make the experience of being there so much more attractive. The view over the valley is to a stunning listed building, 3 stories and set out like a Mercedes emblem, 3 wings at 120 deg to eat other. Just beyond that is the (noisy) A40, but has a ½ mile away. Clean enough though we were surprised that the vacuum cleaner was so full it wouldn't work. Once we'd emptied the hopper it worked fine (cleaning broken glass from the floor). Heating was effective but again, a recurrent theme, it lacked any routine maintenance and TLC: the rads were not all controllable, some valves leaked, and the boiler ripped once.That was soon restarted by calling up, but that could have been covered in the 'help page' of their club. Beds and linen were fine, in fact comfortable. Showers were electric (2 N0.) and off the mains, (bathroom). Bath was commodious. TV and video player worked. Good IT/WIFI. Covered the whole house. Now the negatives.... We disconnected (unplugged) a table lamp in the lounge as it gave one of our number, thankfully NOT a child, a 'belt'. I then checked and NONE of the appliances I saw had been recently PAT tested. Extinguishers were up to date but the electrical stuff should be brought up to speed. The furniture is also 1980s, a job lot of leather(ette?) recliners and sofas. Comfy and again not worth any worry with kids. Just be away this isn't a luxury rental. Floor coverings were 'robust'. A wonderful assortment of crockery and cutlery, pops and pans! Boot sales and auctions. And the noisiest staircase and floors of any house I've been into.
