Holiday rentals with a pool in Buckinghamshire

We had a fantastic stay at Vale Retreats. The accommodation was lovely and well equipped for a long weekend stay. The pool was lovely and 90mins per day was more than enough time for the kids to play and burn off some energy. The location was great. Lots of lovely countryside walks and Winslow was a stones throw away. We went on to Woburn Safari which was a 35 minute car journey away. Would definitely recommend this place to family and friends. Bridget was a wonderful host!

We were all blown away by the property. The house itself is spacious and interesting, and the surroundings are stunning. The kitchen has everything you could reasonably want. What we absolutely loved was the pool and tennis courts- the pool was rather chilly as the heating had just been turned on for the season, but wetsuits and inflatables were provided and we all had a fantastic time. The tennis court had rackets and balls to borrow and was well kept. We also enjoyed lunch at the local pubs and walks in the surrounding countryside- so a great place to visit if you’re sporty and love the English countryside! We enjoyed our stay so much that we booked our next visit before we left.

Excellent barn to stay on with fantastic grounds and fabulous pool and hot tub. David is an attentive host and deals with any issues instantly Highly recommended

We have just had 2 lovely days staying in Alex’s farm cottage. We chose this location as it is close to Mead Open Farm which made a trip possible. We were able to use the pool twice due to Alex’s swift reply to my last minute message which we really apprehended. We were also allowed to use our stair gate which made our two special needs children safe. This has been refused previously by others which of course meant we couldn’t stay. Thank you Alex for a relaxing stay!

We really enjoyed staying at the Old Sunday School. Paul was very friendly and helpful. The home was as described inside and out. The bed in on the mezzanine level was very comfortable and cosy. The added extension lead to the far side of the bed was great for phone charging. The conservatory at the back was a lovely place to eat with views of the garden. The welcome basket was amazing with bread, bacon, eggs from the hens in garden, butter, coffee , milk and a selection of Jams, the best welcome pack we have had so far in our Airbnb stays. We definitely recommend this home for a lovely relaxing holiday, and we would stay here again.

The annexe is a smart modern place in a very quiet location yet easy access to the M1 and Milton Keynes. We were able to prepare & cook meals in the kitchen area. The TV works with casting from a smart phone/tablet. Great shower with good water pressure. Very spacious living room and bedroom for 2 people. Wi fi worked well. Emma provided clear and prompt communication on how to access the property. All good.

The house and facilities were all as described and David (and his family) were great hosts. We only stayed for the weekend, but we had a lovely time and we’ll definitely look to visit again!

My partner and I stayed 2 nights for his birthday and had a lovely time. Sarah was extremely attentive—always reachable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our stay special. She sourced tools when we had car trouble, set up outdoor seating when we were on the pagoda, and accommodated extras like a birthday surprise and a stunning sharing board. Breakfast was also amazing. She kindly let us use the pool even though it was out of season. A few things to note: the upstairs tenant can be heard (as described), and the pool/sitting area feels slightly overlooked by the main house and upstairs entrance. The dogs can be noisy but were moved on quickly when needed. The jacuzzi may need a check—both of us had skin reactions after use. The main bed was also quite squeaky, waking us at times. Overall, though, a welcoming and thoughtful stay with personal touches that made it memorable.

We had such an enjoyable and relaxing first visit here that we had to come back again! The feeling of having your own private spa facilities is just fantastic and I didn’t want to ever get out of the pool! Lucinda and Benji were both so friendly and helpful, and were super responsive to our questions. Looking forward to our next visit.
