There is also an arts and craft studio on-site where you can book private workshops directly with the owner.

Just a short drive is the town of Chipping Norton with many independent shops, pubs and restaurants. The Old Stables is a great base to explore more of the Cotswold’s towns and villages including Stow-on-the-Wold, Chipping Campden, Bourton-on-the-Water, Moreton-in-Marsh, Great Tew, The Slaughters, The Rollrights and Woodstock where you will find Blenheim Palace.
