Spend a few moments relaxing in the bath in the family bathroom, a perfect place to reflect on another happy day, with a walk-in waterfall shower here too for those quicker morning showers. The garden has been beautifully transformed into a real haven, with a children's play area to keep the little ones entertained on a summer’s day, a laid lawn and two patios with seating to catch the sun throughout the day, where you can relax with a morning coffee, alfresco dining and evening drinks. A trip to this part of the UK wouldn't be complete without heading to the UK's first ever safari, Longleat Safari Park where you can see monkeys, lions, tigers and rhinos all from your car window, as well as exploring the grand Longleat House and trying to make it out of the Longleat Hedge Maze, it's a world of fun! Warminster is home to a host of history alongside its many amenities with great restaurants and pubs to visit, as well as Warminster Museum and the Warminster Lakeside Pleasure Grounds with an outdoor paddling area for children, popular in summer!

A day trip to Salisbury will prove a fascinating one, with Salisbury Cathedral home to the Magna Carta, a huge part of the UK's history, with tower tours offering staggering views across the landscape. In the other direction is the city of Bath, well-known for being a location used in many of Jane Austen's novels and now home to The Jane Austen Centre, dedicating a small museum to the life and times of the writer, take a tourist photo on Pulteney Bridge, explore No.1 Royal Crescent, a Georgian home and heritage museum on the very recognisable crescent, and experience Thermae Bath Spa. Also within reach are the Mendips, the southern Cotswolds, and the North Wessex Downs, making Granary Cottage a fabulous choice for a fun-filled stay in Warminster.

Granary Cottage Reviews

The house was had both character and modern conveniences. It was very well supplied with everything you could possible need. We very much enjoyed our stay!
Denise
The accommodation was lovely and comfortable. Had 3 nights stay with our 4 grandchildren. Would definitely stay there again.
Malcolm
A very comfortable and extremely well kitted out cottage with a lot of little touches that enhance the overall accommodation. Children are particularly well catered for with toys, books and games. It is clean and fresh and the modern decor goes well with oldstyle cottage. The parking space is adequate for one car but it is a little awkward getting in and out onto the narrow street. The cottage is well positioned for all the local attractions. Wonderful shower! Only criticism couldn't get into Netflix or Disney but plenty of DVDs to compensate! Overall, I would thoroughly recommend Granary Cottage.

Christopher
Lovely cottage, which I will definitely be revisiting in future for my Wiltshire holidays.
Philip
Absolutely fantastic property we loved our stay, we will definitely be back. Everything you you could want is in the cottage loved all the little extras. If you have children this is the perfect place for a family the outside space is brilliant. We spent time in Longleat we did it over two days, bath was beautiful, a visit to the Roman baths was interesting and we had a day in Salisbury all easily reached by train .
We really enjoyed our stay at Granary Cottage, the Cottage had everything we needed and lots that we didn't.
We had a lovely, comfortable, peaceful stay at Granary Cottage. The property was as described with off road parking for one car, a garden, near by pubs and within a 1015 min walk from the main high street. We didnt use the BBQ due to the weather, but found the house well equipped and spacious with good facilities. We appreciated the games, DVDs and teacoffee supplies provided too thank you. My only gripe was that some of the cupsglasses needed a wash when we arrived and the back of the reading light on the bunkbed was missing the battery cover, and a battery, so we were unable to use it. Despite this we found it a child friendly, family place to stay and would stay again.
We had a great stay at granary cottage. Great location with a supermarket close by, all the amenities you could ask for and lots of childrens toys which made things a lot easier with small children. There was also a good sized garden, play area with slide and swing and access to a BBQ. We were a bit worried about parking but neednt have been as the car park space is easily large enough for a medium sized SUV and has space to access car seats on both sides there was also parking for a second car at the end of the road.
Graham
Absolutely superb cottage. Really high end furniture and fittings, very spacious, very clean and with every amenity you could ever need. On a nice quiet street but close enough to all town centre facilities. Would definitely recommend.
Fab cottage, very comfortable and clean and lots of the self catering basics providedmilk, tea, coffee etc. we had a lovely week at the cottage, touring around. The parking space can be tricky to exit when others park on the other side of the street, we worked out it was better to go in front ways and not straighten up, so you can back out more easily, but good to have the parking space and be off road!
Lovely cottage beautifully decorated and converted , handy for Salisbury ,Longleat and Bath. Good pubs and restaurant a short walk away, there is also a railway station in the town .Minor issues with parking and a tight squeeze using the shower! Had a fantastic few day break and would book again

The family were very happy in this property. It was clean, spacious, well appointed and very cosy by the fire. The heating failed on one day, but the landlady got it sorted out very quickly. The only slight bone of contention was that we had to purchase logs, firefighters and matches ourselves. Surely there should have been sufficient materials in January to allow for a first day fire at least? All in all though, a brilliant stay, and Im still giving it five stars!
Dorothy
The cottage was very nice, clean and comfortable. It was very well equipped. The twin room beds were a little small for adults and would have been more comfortable with the next width size. But that is the only criticism. We would not hesitate to recommend anyone visiting the area to stay at Granary cottage and if we need to stay in the area again we would without any hesitation stay there.
Great place to stay. Granary cottage has everything you need and more. Clean and comfortable. Off road parking was a massive plus. Granary cottage is so spacious, plenty of room for a large family. Highly recommended.
We had a lovely short break making memories in this lovely cottage highly recommend it.
This house has literally everything! Plates, cutlery, glasses, full kitchen! It has BBQ outside, fireplace inside, washing machine. Amazing! We were impressed by all facilities! Wow!
Matthew
Great house and location. Loads of kids toys for our 3 and 6 year old, always helps to have those on holiday. Comfy beds, great upst safety gate and well stocked kitchen though a bigger freezer area would help. Everywhere super clean. No issue with parking a mid size SUV though can be tight getting out if someone parked opposite. Great base to explore, Salisbury, Bath, Stonehenge. The gardens in Warminster were also brilliant!We also did the east somerset railway as our kids aretrain mad and the national trust property at stourhead is stunning for future guests with NT membership this gets you into free at Stonehenge even though it's English heritage. We had an amazing trip.
Brenda
Loved the cottage,it is very spacious and the beds are SO comfortable. It was ideal for us as we were visiting Longleat and it was just 10mins drive away from the property. The games, puzzles and toys were a nice thought for rainy days and Grandad & Grandson enjoyed the football table.
Angela
Had a lovely time in Granary Cottage. Great area for visiting different places with lots of interesting places within an hours drive. The train station is in the town which we used a few times. Longleat is definitely worth a visit and only 10 minutes drive from the property. Had the same issue as previous guests with mess in the garden when we arrived but think it must be cats as we had to clean it up each day and the gates were all locked. Shower is very small and would have preferred bigger bath towels. Very comfy beds.
My 2 12 year old grandson walked round the cottage when we got there and he said this is amazing which sums it up completely. The only thing the cottage doesn't give you is next weeks winning lottery numbers ! We were only there 3 nights but would highly recommend this cottage to everyone I am sure we will be back . The attention to detail is quite remarkable. Thank you.
Haylee
What an amazing place to stay, made to feel like it was home and very clean and very close to amenities. Would definitely stay here again. The only one issue was there was a lot of dog poo in the garden
Stephen
We had a great time during our stay at Granary Cottage. Good location for seeing the local sights. The cottage itself is excellent comfy beds, clean, all cooking equipment. Nice comfy lounge and having nexflix and disney is a bonus with kids. All the communication were excellent. The only real down side from our stay came from the parking situation. I'm not sure if the neighbours opposite have an issue with the cottage parking space, but within the first 2 days of us being there we were block in about 45 time. They moved the car each time, but they did seem to be doing it on purpose especially when they have plenty of space at the side of their house to park all a bit odd and inconsiderate. But apart from that, we have a great stay.
I would recommend the Granery to anybody wishing to visit the area. The property is perfect for families and the owners seem to have put a lot of thought into making it quite special which includes the play area in the lovely large garden.
Wonderful stay at Granary Cottage, celebrating an early Christmas with family nearby. Thoughtfully and considerately wellequipped, the kitchen even managed to produce Christmas dinner for 8! Our grandson Charlie, who is almost 2, loved the garden and the toys provided. Trips to Longleat Festival of Light and Bath Christmas Market added to an amazing family week we made lots of special memories, for which the cottage provided an excellent base. A huge thank you to the owners.
Our week in the Granary Cottage was excellent. All of the facilities were great and the children loved all of the extras the toys, the garden, the games all excellent. Everything was clean and comfortable, and there was plenty of space for everyone. Warminster was perfectly placed for trips to Bath, Longleat, Dorset and Cheddar Gorge.
Just back from a fantastic 5 nights at Granary cottage. Have never stayed anywhere so well equipped and set up for a family stay. Will definitely be booking again!
Had a fabulous stay at the granary cottage. It has been beautifully refurbished and is very well equipped for a family stay. All you could ever need.
Teresa
The cottage was lovely. I think they need to state parking for one smallmedium car. We had issues parking because of cars parked opposite space and we had a truck. We damaged the truck trying to park. It would have been nice to have a information pack.
