The Finer Details
Wonderful Cotswolds barns within a nature reserve, offering a unique place to stay. The barns are surrounded by 13 acres of grounds and make the perfect spot for a get together with family and friends. The interiors are stunning with vintage finds mixing with high end sofas and super comfortable Quince signature British beds, all with two toppers to ensure you really do have a comfy night.
The barns are single storey and face into the sunny walled courtyards, cleverly designed by landscape gardener Posy Gentles, to give you dining and soft seating areas. Inspired by the beautiful rural setting, she has mixed herbs with grasses and climbing roses with trees to offer a magical sunny setting. To the rear of each barn are grass areas, more seating and BBQ’s, ideal for the children to play and for you to watch the sun go down across the surrounding water meadows. You may even spy our resident barn owl who swoops around the barns at sunrise and sunset. You are welcome to explore the wider grounds where you will find swings, picnic benches and even a fire pit so don’t forget your marshmallows. Not to mention our stunning outside copper tubs in their own bathhouse with hot and cold water and an outdoor heater – all just waiting for you to arrive in your flipflops and bubble bath and enjoy a soak under the stars.
Both the barns have a lovely big boot room and gated grounds making it dog friendly, while the dining area and kitchen mingle together to create an easy entertaining space. If you want to book a private chef, let us know and we will give you some suggestions.
There is parking for maximum of 11 cars. The house has fast fibre broadband of up to 200mbs which makes it ideal as a place to work as well as relax.

Location is Key
The Thames Path walking trails are within a 10 minute walk and there are some great cycle routes, for all ages, with the scholastic delights of Oxford just 18 miles away. Naturally, there are plenty of country pubs to hunker down in, with good circular walks from the house. The stunning cotswolds villages are all within easy reach and Bampton, Downton Abbeys ‘village’ is 3 miles away. Perch in the bird hide and come eye-to-eye with our feathered residents or walk through the fields and enjoy some wild swimming or canoe and boarding on the Thames. A perfect place for a seriously mellow escape whatever the season.
