We had an excellent and enjoyable stay in this property which was tucked behind the owner’s house on a private self contained plot. It was super clean, comfortable, very warm and the pool table and darts were a key attraction with teenagers. The owners were very welcoming and the house was well equipped with more than just a toilet roll or two! From foil to spare phone leads and soap in every bathroom and kitchen sink was much more than the usual provided. The only thing I can say is that a set of non metal utensils, a measuring jug and a decent tin opener would have been perfection! This is a very minor gripe as I did cook and we were there for pancake day! 😊 Plenty of local supermarkets and places to eat or take out were only a short drive away. Beautiful towns and villages close by for walks. Oxford just 40 mins drive to park and ride or a direct bus, just a short walk from property. Ideal location to take in the Cotswolds. We would definitely recommend this and wouldn’t hesitate to go back. Thank you!
