Just returned from staying in Orchard for the second time.
Stayed with my daughter who was over from New Zealand. Jessica recommended several places to eat we choose Renagrade Brewery was delicious food. I stayed here with friends last year and we all agreed that a return trip & stay was needed. We loved the accommodation and the small shop next door. Shop is amazing well stocked and lovely food.

Absolutely stunning accommodation in a beautiful setting.
Absolutely stunning accommodation located in a beautiful setting. The cottage is extremely well furnished and has everything you need for the perfect getaway. Ideal for families or small groups. There is also a great, well stocked community shop located within the courtyard and the village pub is 2 mins walk (which serves a fab Sunday roast). You will come away feeling totally relaxed and recharged, highly recommended.

Lovely for a short getaway with friends
Came here with 3 friends for 2 nights away. We went for a curry and pub quiz at the pub down the road and found nice walks during the day. The cakes at the shop next door are amazing.

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
The family have owned the farm in the centre of the village for several generations and it continues today to be a working arable and beef cattle farm. We are live next door to the self-catering cottages so are on hand to answer any questions and to meet our guests. There is lots to do close by for walkers, families, groups, couples and singles. We can cater for everyone including single people on business in the area or looking for a short-term house in between houses or if you need to move out for building work. Orchard cottage is popular with large groups as you can all eat together but sleep in different cottages next door, suitable for birthdays, baptisms, wedding parties, stag & hen parties, family reunions etc. The Living Rainforest is a great place to visit in the village with a sloth, monkeys, butterflies to see. We are a popular base to visit Oxford, London, Windsor, Legoland, Goring and the Ridgeway for walking. The heating for the self-catering cottages has is run on a wood-pellet boiler so very environmentally friendly.
