  Closefield is brilliant.

  Probably the best self-catering stay we've had. The property is freshly decorated and sparkling clean throughout. The rooms (living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom) are plenty big enough for two people. We found enough utentials, pots and pans in the kitchen for our needs. Amazing amount of choice on the TV. Didn't need the heating much but it was very easy to take the early morning freshness off with a little bit of heat. All in, a fabulous home. Agnes and Chris were very kind. A sumptuous welcome basket was left and Agnes had thoughtfully provided some gluten free provisions (following an earlier conversation with me). They checked in with us a couple of times and offered some good suggestions for activities, which was helpful. The location is wonderful. We had a couple of lovely evenings, stood looking out of the main window at the birds, foxes, rabbits and other wildlife. Plenty of stuff to do within a half hour drive including NT and EH homes and gardens, walks and St Albans.

  This place is such a find!

  We had planned a one-night stay at La Maison (Raymond Blanc's restaurant) to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary and were looking to spend a few more days in the area, but wanted something that didn't feel too much of a come down after that. Closefield did not disappoint! Everything about it is top-end: the ample welcome pack, the luxurious bed, the comfortable sofas and mega TV, all capped with a magnificent view across open fields to the Ivinghoe Beacon. Plenty of things to do in the area too, so a wonderful place for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. And a word too for hosts Chris and Agnes - a lovely couple who made us feel so welcome and yet did not intrude in any way on our privacy. Thank you both so much - we do hope to return one day!

  Fantastic long weekend of peaceful solitude.

  The owner made it known upon arrival that she was available if needed and was found immediately when I had a missing item to supply it. They also kindly made it clear ahead of my departure that I didn’t have to rush out at the usual checkout time as their cleaner would not be there until later in the day. The only suggestion would be to provide a torch, especially in winter, as by their own admission the solar lights don’t really get enough sunlight to charge them and the path to the pod from the car park and the drive/road itself can be pretty dark. All in all, a wonderful weekend and I’d love to return.

  We have nothing but good things to say about Closefield; it has been converted to a very high standard.

  Everything was just perfect from the moment we arrived, even though we were slightly early. Chris was communicative prior to the day and on arrival he was there with a friendly welcome and very helpful advice on what to do and where to go in the area. We absolutely loved the property, which faces away from the main house so you have no sense that the owners are nearby. The addition of the Welcome Basket was a very generous and nice touch. There are so many beautiful and interesting places to visit in the area, so much so that we intend to visit again next year.
