About this property

Owls Barn - pet friendly, Oxfordshire

Escape the hustle of life at Owls Barn, an immersive countryside retreat that will leave you feeling rested and restored. Listen to the owls, spot the deer in the surrounding fields and explore local walking routes at this excellently located 5-bed sanctuary. Set within The Cotswolds, this bolthole is a great base for a rural escape.

Showcasing spacious open plan living, wooden beams and a glorious outdoor area, Owls Barn has been carefully considered.
