“Excellance and perfection are often aspired to, but rarely achieved.”

...............however, West Barn is excellant, and the location and surrounds are perfect. An idyllic hideaway with Forest all around together with Deers, Squirrells and Pea Hens to amuse you. Even tho West Barn is in the grounds of the Owners property, we were relaxed and undisturbed.

“We absolutely adored West Barn Cottage!”

It was the perfect retreat. We are extremely pleased and happy we chose this wonderful and charming cottage for our Cotswold stay. We loved coming back from our village jaunts and being greeted by the pheasants lining the long driveway. The property was picture perfect with beautiful views of the countryside. It was cozy, yet very spacious, and had all the modern conveniences we needed.
Mrs Hudson

“It was very spacious, very clean & very well equipped.”

The bed was very comfortable, with feather duvets (the bed was a super king, two 3" singles zipped together, with 2 single duvets, which worked really well).

“Excellent cottage in beautiful location.”

If there is any criticism it is to say that there were a significant number of cobwebs and some were unfortunately in the bedroom - next to the bedside cabinets etc and needed out attention!!

“A fantastic and perfect house for two people.”

Everything we could wish for was there. Very cosy and good comfort with modern fascilities. Beautiful surroundings for us and our dog, and good location for visiting cotswold villages and Oxford. The owners are also very friendly and made us feel very welcome, and especially on day of arrival with cake and wine. We felt so much at home, and were a bit sad to leave. So we hope to return.

Situated outside the very beautiful village of Tackley (close to Woodstock and Blenheim Palace) the property sits in the grounds of the owner's house, in a clearing within some woods and enjoys an extremely tranquil setting with, literally, no more than birdsong to break the silence!

Inside the cottage is beautifully furnished and very spacious with all modern facilities to make your stay very comfortable.

The huge TV and surround sound system are certainly appealing....

With walks from your front door and a host of local attractions and places to visit, this is an exceptional holiday cottage for two people.

About the location

TACKLEY

Woodstock 3 miles; Bicester 11 miles; Oxford 14 miles.

Tackley is a picturesque village situated in the Oxfordshire Cotswolds, approx 8 miles north of Oxford and 3 miles from Woodstock, home of Blenheim Palace. The name Tackley is derived from 'tack' which means sheep or ewe and 'ley' which means glade or clearing! The village is very pretty, has a good village shop and a local pub The Gardiner Arms. There is another pub just outside the village called Sturdy's Castle.

Nearby there are some superb attractions to visit. Rousham Hall is very close by and although there are restrictions to visiting etc, it is a beautiful stately home. Oxford,'The city of the Dreaming Spires' and colleges is just 15 mins by car. There are literally hours of things to do there! For the determined shopper, Bicester Village which is a vast outlet centre.

Woodstock has a good range of local pubs, along with restaurants, shops and stores while the famous Blenheim Palace, home to the Duke of Malborough is well worth a day trip.

Note: There are strict pet restrictions at the property and certain times through the year there will be game shooting held within the forest.
