Description

Stanford In The Vale 1.4 miles.

South Barn Cottage is a wonderful, single story barn conversion tucked away in the serene Oxfordshire countryside with far reaching views towards the Vale of White Horse.

It is within easy reaching distance of the Cotswolds Area of Natural Beauty, Oxford, Abingdon-on-Thames, Witney, Bicester, Woodstock and Blenheim Palace.

With its quiet, rural location and an abundance of pretty villages and walks nearby, including riverside walks, this charming cottage is perfectly situated and offers family and friends a perfect base from which to explore the beauty of the surrounding area.

Winding down a long private driveway through electric gates, you will arrive at the tranquil South Barn Cottage.

Once inside, you will be greeted by a bright and airy open-plan living space featuring high ceilings, charming beams, and exposed brick walls throughout.

The stylish kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need, including a convenient coffee maker to make those morning routines a whole lot easier.

Take a seat at the breakfast bar for light lunches, or gather around the dining table seating four for a more formal setting.

In the sitting area, sink into the plush sofa and enjoy your favourite shows on the Smart TV, or open the patio doors to the garden on warm summer days to enjoy the fresh country air.

The garden is securely enclosed, making it a safe space for children to play, with a bistro set for relaxing moments outdoors.

Retreat to the two inviting bedrooms after a day of exploring, with a gorgeous double room offering ample storage space and a charming twin room perfect for resting those sleepy heads.

The bathroom features a bath for soaking and a separate walk-in shower for a refreshing start to your day.

Just a stone’s throw away is the charming village of Stanford in the Vale, with a village shop for all of your needs.

Only a few minutes further by car, in Faringdon, you will find a large Tesco, a Waitrose and a variety of independent stores and cafes.

In the surrounding local villages, you will find plenty of welcoming country pubs to explore and enjoy.

If you’re the mood for a bit of town or city life, the nearby towns of Abingdon-on-Thames, Witney, Burford, Oxford or Swindon have everything you need from shops, bars, cafes, restaurants and theatres.

The City of Bath is just over an hour away, and Burford, in the heart of the Cotswolds, only around 25 minutes.

For active and family-friendly activities, there are water sports at Lechlade and the Cotswold Water park, Oxford WetnWild plus of course punting in Oxford itself.

Blenheim Palace is always also a favourite at any time of the year, with many organised events as well as the beautiful palace and gardens to explore.

The local Millets Farm also has plenty for families to do, including fruit picking during the summer months.

Families can also venture to the nearby Cotswold Wildlife Park or Crocodiles of the World for an exciting day out, at the same time enjoying breathtaking views and picturesque walks in the spectacular countryside surrounding these.

Relax and unwind at South Barn Cottage, a peaceful spot in the heart of stunning countryside.

An ideal location for exploring the local area and further afield.

The property was spotlessly clean and well appointed. The beds were very comfortable and as the property was surrounded by fields, it was very quiet and relaxing. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We had one minor issue with the wi-fi, which was sorted out very quickly. If you are wildlife enthusiast, this is the place for you. We saw bats, house martins, kestrels, red kites, families of rabbits and hares, and also muntjac deer. We can thoroughly recommend this property and will be returning the next time that we are staying in the area.

Tranquil location in beautiful countryside.

A cosy cottage with all the facilities you would expect. When you arrive, follow the instructions in the email rather than the pin on the map.
