    “Lovely cottage.”

    Perfectly placed for visiting the Cotswolds. It has everything you need and we certainly felt at home. Pretty Burford is a matter of minutes away. We also visited Blenheim Palace for their Christmas market and Sleeping Beauty display. Beautiful but expensive. I loved it though. We visited the Wychwood pub which was nice. The Lamb, also nearby, is the quintessential Cotswold pub tho we did have a rather unpleasant interaction by email with the pub owner who was extremely rude and offensive. This ...

    Perfectly placed for visiting the Cotswolds. It has everything you need and we certainly felt at home. Pretty Burford is a matter of minutes away. We also visited Blenheim Palace for their Christmas market and Sleeping Beauty display. Beautiful but expensive. I loved it though. We visited the Wychwood pub which was nice. The Lamb, also nearby, is the quintessential Cotswold pub tho we did have a rather unpleasant interaction by email with the pub owner who was extremely rude and offensive. This apart we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Appin cottage and would definitely return though we will probably avoid The Lamb!

    Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Appin Cottage. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and that you had time to visit the Christmas Market at Blenheim. It's lovely to hear you enjoyed some of the local pubs, the Wychwood is one of our favourites. We hope to welcome you again in the future. Kind regards Manor Cottages. Property Owner

The property

Appin Cottage is just so cute!

Set down a quiet lane on the edge of the very attractive village of Shipton-under-Wychwood, and with Burford (3 miles) and Chipping Norton a short drive up the road, you are right in the heart of the Cotswolds.

Not only that, but those with a taste for all things swish can either pop to Daylesford Organic Farm which is about 10 mins away or alternatively you can gorge yourself at the multitude of top notch pubs in the vicinity, all convenient enough for a walk (long or short!) Inside, Appin is a cosy rural retreat with snug woodburning stove which will keep you toasty all year round and large bedroom upstairs that you can soak up the views without so much as lifting your head off the pillow!

The cottage is just spot on for a couple looking for a break and who fancy a little exploring - from this location you can do as little or as much as you wish.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

BURFORD

Swinbrook 2.4 miles; Little Barrington 3.5 miles; Minster Lovell 5.6 miles.

Burford is possibly one of, if not the most famous of the Cotswolds' locations. With its medieval bridge, old stone houses and attractive Tudor and Georgian frontages, it is justifiably one of the most picturesque towns in England. Often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Cotswolds', the town was originally a fortified Anglo-Saxon ford which later grew to be an important regional crossroads and wealthy wool town. Located midway between Oxford and Cheltenham, it is a little haven of history and beauty that many come to fall in love with when they visit. The 16th century Tolsey building, once the meeting place for medieval merchants, now houses The Tolsey Museum, a delightful local museum illustrating the town's social and industrial past. The church is stunning, a real gem architecturally with many interesting memorials charting some of Burford's great families. There is also the signature, on the baptisimal font, of Antony Sedley, one of the Levellers besieged in the church in 1649 - three of the ringleaders were executed by Oliver Cromwell's men in the churchyard. History awaits! With little change over the centuries, Burford is now very popular with visitors, both for its beauty and history but also for its shopping and antiques, and for the wide variety of places to eat, with restaurants, pubs and tea shops. It is an ideal base for visiting The Cotswolds area as it is within easy driving distance of popular attractions such as Blenheim Palace, Sudeley Castle, Warwick Castle and several National Trust Houses and Gardens. Bourton on the Water, Bibury, Cirencester and Stow on the Wold are all within ten miles.
