Great place, close to town but you feel like you are in the country. Great play park for kids that is a 20 min walk through the fields into town, which was a nice discovery!

Quality conversion of old stable a short walk from the attractive town of Thame. Local attractions include the upper Thames valley, The Chiltern hills and their pretty villages. Several National Trust properties are nearby as well as the P and R into Oxford. The owners were very friendly and helpful and despite not great weather we had a most enjoyable week.
