The property

"Banbury 4.9 miles.

Mollington Manor is a distinguished oak-panelled stone manor house nestled within the attractive village of Mollington, near Banbury in Oxfordshire.

Accommodating up to eleven guests across six bedrooms, this substantial countryside retreat is ideally suited to extended families, multi-generational gatherings and celebratory occasions, offering an exceptional blend of period character, expansive living space and superb facilities. The heart of the home is the impressive kitchen, thoughtfully designed as a social hub where everyone can come together.

Centred around an Aga-style range cooker, with generous work surfaces and informal island seating, it is perfectly equipped for preparing anything from relaxed morning breakfasts to memorable evening feasts.

A separate utility room keeps the practicalities of longer stays conveniently out of sight. A choice of three welcoming reception rooms ensures ample space for guests to spread out and enjoy their stay.

The characterful drawing room showcases oak-panelled walls and a woodburning stove, creating a wonderful setting for relaxed evenings.

Elsewhere, the dedicated TV room is ideal for catching up on favourite films and series, while the spectacular glass-walled living and dining room offers a bright and sociable space for entertaining.

Opening through bi-fold doors onto the terrace, this room effortlessly brings the outside in. Spread across three floors, the accommodation is both versatile and spacious.

The principal king-size bedroom benefits from its own en-suite shower room, while a further single bedroom also enjoys en-suite facilities.

Two additional king-size rooms and two double bedrooms are served by stylish bathrooms complete with baths, showers and twin wash basins, offering plenty of convenience for larger groups. Outside, the enclosed garden has been designed with relaxation and entertaining in mind.

Spend afternoons soaking in the hot tub, enjoy meals fresh from the barbecue on the terrace, unwind in the hammock, or gather around the fire pit as the sun goes down.

The grounds also provide secure parking for up to eight cars behind electric gates. A welcoming village pub, The Green Man, is located just a short walk away, while a wider selection of amenities can be found in nearby Banbury.

Explore local highlights including Banbury Museum & Gallery, the historic Banbury Cross and People's Park, or visit the magnificent Blenheim Palace in Woodstock.

The surrounding Cotswold countryside offers an abundance of walking opportunities, including routes along the Oxford Canal, while nearby Chipping Norton provides independent shops, eateries and attractions such as Fairytale Farm. Combining timeless character, generous accommodation and excellent outdoor facilities, Mollington Manor is a superb destination for enjoying special occasions and discovering the scenic beauty of Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds."
