The 1940s railway carriage was a real delight to stay in. It is done up beautifully and has all you need to make your stay relaxing and comfortable. Sam, Dave and co were great hosts who were very welcoming. They even provided us with a lovely bottle of prosecco to help us unwind. We left undiscovered villages and towns behind so we are very keen to come back and stay in the one it's kind railway carriage.
Thanks for having us! What a beautiful place! We spent three nights here during half term, a peaceful, happy haven for us and our two dogs. Sammy, Dave and family were friendly, accomodating and so kind. The Beehive is gorgeous! We will certainly visit again. Sammy, Dave, their lovely family and the dogs are so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble, even when I broke the blinds!

About Us
Report
Our bright and bushy tailed resident fox inspired our railway carriage theme and The Beehive was given it's name in memory of the colony of bees which lived in our chimney. Our charming copsy carriage is nestled into the grounds of a 17th Century former dairy farm. We try to be good custodians of the earth by using eco-friendly cleaning products, avoiding excess laundering and providing a haven in which wildlife can thrive and reproduce.

The Beehive
Report
Former outbuildings of our 17th Century farmhouse have been sympathetically converted by local craftsmen into a luxury dog-friendly apartment for two (twin or double) with a light and airy bedroom. Offering a fully fitted modern kitchen and en-suite shower room, The Beehive is suited to contractors, corporate visitors and those wishing to take a relaxing break on the edge of Swindon and the Cotswolds.
Local Places To Eat
Report
Superlative restaurant, bar and micro brewery offering a quirky menu including the likes of wild boar, venison, kangaroo together with an extensive wine menu. The only place to go in Swindon for genuine Spanish tapas including paella every Sunday lunchtime. Too many tasty dishes to recommend but a meal there wouldn't be complete without berenjenas (deep fried aubergine drizzled with honey).
