About this property
Situated within easy reach of Oxford and within an hour train journey from London Paddington. The Loft is set in beautifully landscaped gardens surrounded by five acres of farmland where the owners maintain free range chickens and a small flock of Welsh Halfbred sheep who may wish to say hello to you in the mornings!
With its uninterrupted views towards the Goring Gap, this oak framed barn provides an idyllic romantic retreat. Situated in five acres of beautiful Oxfordshire farmland, complete with resident free-range chickens and a small flock of Welsh Halfbred sheep, you can view the exquisite landscaped gardens and enjoy all the comforts and tranquillity that The Loft has to offer.
Aside from being excellently situated, The Loft is also perfectly located for numerous local attractions. From an enjoyable afternoon spent at Basildon Park or Greys Court, to a weekend of walking The Ridgeway National trail and the Thames Pathway. There are numerous activities right on the doorstep. Whilst the local area has plenty to offer Oxford and London are only a stones’ throw away (Oxford approximately 30 minutes by train. London in under an hour) and if that isn’t enough to tempt you, don’t worry, there is a pub within walking distance too!
