Gill and Adrian welcome you to Wheatleys Farm Bed and Breakfast.

Our bed and breakfast is situated in the South Cotswolds halfway between Swindon and  Cirencester and within the Cotswold Water Park, We are ideally situated for day trips to Oxford, Salisbury, Bath, and Stratford upon Avon to name but a few.

Wheatleys Farm Bed and Breakfast is set on a dairy farm on the edge of the peaceful and picturesque village of Ashton Keynes, the first village on the River Thames. We are surrounded by our own land and have the River Thames running through part of that land.

We farm about 500 acres, milking 200 Holstein cows and rearing all calves either for beef or as dairy replacements. The arable land is used to produce feed for the animals all year round.

You can enjoy a good farmhouse breakfast cooked with locally sourced produce when possible, in our conservatory overlooking the garden, before spending a relaxing day doing your own thing. We also have a guest lounge, which is ideal for family groups to unwind together at the end of an eventful day.

Guests are welcome to use our garden to enjoy afternoon tea, relax with a favourite book, or watch the sun set with a drink in the evening.

We have ample safe off-road parking.

Two village pubs are within walking distance and both offer excellent food. Alternatively, we can recommend a variety of restaurants within a few miles.

This horse is located on the steep western slope of westbury Hill, below the Iron Age hill-fort of Bratton Camp. The first Westbury white horse is believed to have been cut to commemorate the victory over the Danes in the Battle of Ethandun (possibly nearby Edington) in 878AD. Local legend says that King Alfred commissioned the cutting of the horse, but had the designer beheaded soon after completion as the horse was said to be riding out of town, and should have been riding into town.
