What an amazing place this was. 18 of us stayed here for my daughter's Hen weekend. And from start to finish it was perfect.
The house looked beautiful inside and out and there was plenty of parking for everyone. The grounds were so lush and peaceful.
The kitchen/dining room was so well equipped with everything you could possibly need, plus two sinks and 2 dishwashers and a huge double fridge. The table accommodated all of us easily.
All the bedrooms were different and all gorgeously decorated. Comfy beds, fluffy towels and robes which all smelt so fresh. Bathrooms were great too.
The hot tub was easy to access and use and the extra towels and slippers were an excellent idea. We did have bad weather while we were there and had to hot tub in the rain which would have been a little better if it had been under cover but we had fun anyway.
The lounge area with the log fire was so comfy and cosy and we moved the furniture for a great Salsa class and did the same in the games room for Yoga.
I can't recommend this place highly enough for what we needed it for and it made this special occasion absolutely perfect.

We celebrated my 70th birthday at Box Bush Barn in the first week of September with all my family (16 of us , age range 2-70!)

From the first greeting by our host , Rebecca to our last goodbye as we vacated the barn we had a wonderful time .

So much space ! The sitting room upstairs with the comfy sofas was a great place to relax and chat .

The children loved the pool and though we were blessed with good weather I imagine the pool would be good fun even in inclement weather as the roof slides on so easily .

The games room was also a big hit with us all .

The kitchen was very well equipped and lots is space for dining .

Not a negative comment from any of us !

Thanks for the brilliant time .

CHILLSTONE HOUSE 16th August 2024

Dear Kate & Tom's Team,

Our recent, July, family stay at Chillstone House was a resounding success, with a lot of credit due to Sue and Lance, the owners, attention to detail. Everyone commented how homely and inviting the house felt, which made for a very relaxing and enjoyable weekend.

On arrival there was a lovely welcome in the kitchen of wine plus various cakes and biscuits, an excellent touch and start

Our group of 14, ranging in age from two under 10’s, up to two in their late 80s, absolutely loved the house, their bedrooms, surrounding gardens and pool.

The kitchen was well equipped and managed well with all our various meal preparations and serving times. The two large fridge-freezers coped with all the food and drink for a three-night stay for our group.

Most people used the pool at least once during the weekend even though we weren't blessed with very sunny weather. It was very good of Lance to pop in on Saturday morning to give us a mini tutorial on the workings of the pool and its cover.

Another plus for the whole family was the large double garage fitted out with a table tennis table plus all the bats and balls. We also used it for some other games that we had brought with us. It has some comfy seating for the spectators & waiting players. The barbeque in the garage was very useful and easy to get going for the 2 meals we used it for.

Chillstone House is in an ideal location - a short drive into Devizes or Avebury Ring and walk to the local George and Dragon pub in Rowde plus a slightly longer stroll to view the impressive Caen Hill Locks on the Kennett and Avon canal.

We highly recommend Chillstone House to anyone who wants a high-quality superior house for that special family occasion - they would not be disappointed.

Thank you also to the K&T Team who are always very knowledgeable and helpful when answering our requests and queries.

Yours sincerely
Gill and Ken Walby

I booked a house for Christmas for my family from around the world so we could spend it together and what an amazing time we had. The house in Ross on Wye was perfect for all our needs. Spacious, luxurious, catered for all our needs. I was particularly impressed with the design & comfort of all the rooms. The bar and pool room were an instant hit with us all. Friendly & helpful if we needed anything with instant responses. I would love to organise another visit there with some friend in tow this time. A perfect place to spend a week. Thank you.

We had a fantastic stay through Kate and Tom’s. I can’t fault their communication and customer service. The house itself was impressive and catered to all our needs for a large family Christmas away. There were lots of lovely little touches with the property. Such a fantastic experience.

We had an absolutely amazing time at Hall on the Hill! We rented it for a hen weekend with 24 guests. The house was phenomenal and had everything we could have asked for. Both the owner of the house and Kate and Tom’s were so responsive and ensured we had a great time. Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed! Thank you so much for having us.

We have just spent October half term at Wellacres and it was wonderful. We are a family group with little ones, teenagers and a 95 year old. We had a wonderful surprise in that the pool was still available, so we spent afternoons outside, by the pool, hot tub and trampoline. The house was lovely and warm with huge bedrooms and extremely comfortable huge beds! All the bathrooms were also huge. We all congregated in the kitchen and dining room in the evenings to enjoy a glass of wine and cook meals with the excellent facilities. The two lounges are cosy and comfortable.There are lots of pretty villages to visit nearby if you can drag yourself away from the peaceful, relaxing house. We definitely want to return!
