The cottage is absolutely gorgeous. Clean, quaint, with lots of extra touches. We stayed here and explored Oxford, the Cotswolds, and Stratford-upon-Avon. It was a wonderful place to call home for a time.

Thank you! It’s always rewarding to hear how much guests enjoy their stay, and we’d be delighted to have you back in residence very soon. Our cottage offers a quintessentially British experience—just a stone’s throw from Blenheim Palace and on the doorstep of Oxford City Centre and the Cotswolds. We look forward to welcoming more travelers to our little bucolic honeyspot in Oxfordshire.

A lovely stay

Our stay at the cottage on the Blenheim estate exceeded our expectations! It was quaint, comfortable and well appointed with everything we needed. The riverside location with a short path walk to Blenheim Place was ideal. Our very favorite spot was the lovely summer house adjacent to the cottage. Thank you for a memorable stay.

Gorgeous English Cottage

This beautiful country cottage was the highlight of our stay in Great Britain. The cottage is very nicely decorated and there is an additional summer house to relax by the stream. When we arrived there were beautiful flowers, a bottle of wine, baked bread and everything needed for the next morning's breakfast. They have a fully stocked kitchen, a picnic table for al fresco dining and a beautiful dining room when eating indoors. The beds are very comfortable. The host responded quickly to any questions we had. Highly recommend this cottage!

An absolute treasure

A wonderful stay for our family in the most gorgeous cottage and setting. Beautifully and thoughtfully furnished with everything you need to feel at home (including cooking and laundry). A wonderful breakfast pack for our late arrival was great. A bright summer house in the gardens to relax during the day and enjoy the stream and garden and sheep/cows in neighboring farm land. Excellent location with a very convenient grocery store near by and walkable distance to the Long Hanborough station for direct access to Oxford. Only wish we could have stayed longer and had more opportunity to explore the community walkways. Hope to return again! Thank you for a truly magical stay.
