The property
Inside, the cottages have retained much of its original character, with exposed beams complementing the contemporary furnishings and mod cons, offering a great base for a self-catered holiday.
Both properties enjoy open-plan living rooms, offering great social spaces for everyone to come together to celebrate a wonderful holiday at Tawneys Farm.
The sleek kitchens are certain to entice a spot of home-cooking, containing an electric oven and hob, a microwave and plenty of preparation space.
Both properties also have a washing machine, so that you can easily wash and dry your clothes after an action-packed afternoon.
Spend your evenings within the sitting area, by getting cosy on the plush sofa and flicking on the Smart TV, or in Kingfisher open up the patio doors and watch the wildlife on the pond.
The first floor of Swallows contains two bedrooms, one King-size & one double and a family bathroom with a bath so that you can indulge with a relaxing soak after a tiring day.
Continuing to impress, gather together within the enclosed garden area to enjoy a glass of something chilled, with the natural pond and endearing farm animals as your backdrop as you enjoy the balmy evening, with something cooking on the gas barbecue.

Tawneys Stable Cottages
Enjoying a rural and isolated position amidst the beauty of West Oxfordshire’s countryside are a pair of former stables, Kingfisher (1050968) and Swallows (1050961) which were transformed in 2020 into elegant holiday accommodations, and Willowdale (1161543), the newest addition, a charming shepherd's hut with idyllic views of the willow tree and beyond to the pond. Located a few miles from the West Oxfordshire market town of Witney and situated on the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, these are the ideal properties for couples, families or groups of friends who like to be energetic, delve into a bit of culture or just simply relax and watch time go by on the farm. Drive through the historic village of Stanton Harcourt, scattered with thatched estate cottages, continue down a long private tree lined drive leading to the tranquil, unique and rural setting of Tawneys Farm, where you will find “Swallows”, “Kingfisher” and "Willowdale". The Old Stables have been awarded funding, for places to stay from which to explore the beautiful local countryside, by Oxfordshire LEADER the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development: Europe investing in rural areas. If you can tear yourself away from this superb retreat, venture into the bustling village of Eynsham, where the narrow streets and main square contain a family butchers, a traditional pub and a shop for picking up the essentials. Whilst staying here, be sure to visit The Harcourt Arms in Stanton Harcourt, where you will find a superb restaurant and an outstanding deli, selling a quality selection of fresh fruit, veg, meats, beers and wines. Also, make a stop off at the Red Lion pub in Northmoor, which is a community pub, providing excellent meals using locally sourced produce. Immerse yourself in your surroundings further, by walking the Thames Path, or head to the magnificent Thames River, where you can hire paddle boats or enjoy punting for a unique experience. For a taste of history and culture, visit Blenheim Palace, a World Heritage Site with over 300 years of history to discover or head to the city of Oxford, the city of dreaming spires, the Bodleian Library, the Botanic Gardens and a plethora of museums. Those visiting with younger guests can spend the day at Millets Farm, where you can pick your own fruit, visit the farm animals or spend fun-filled hours at the play farm as well as enjoy the amazing food shop. With so much to see and do in Oxfordshire with your partner, family or groups of friends, this may be the place for you.
