Explore the Cotswolds From a Charming Home

The Coach House is a beautiful studio that features a spacious layout of off-white walls, high ceilings, and hardwood floors. Relax on the sofa as sunlight streams in through the window and curl up with a book on the plush rocking chair. This light and airy studio is the perfect base for couples (with or without babies/toddlers) wishing to discover the Cotswolds. It is a 10-15 minute walk to the town centre and is a mere two minutes walk to Burford's famous Garden Company. This country retreat is ideal for accessing the many pubs, restaurants and shops to be found locally. The Coach House has its own front door and once you have climbed one flight of stairs, is generously proportioned and on one level. Coats and boots can be left in the lower lobby. Secure storage for bikes can be arranged if requested in advance. The fully fitted kitchen comprises:- an electric oven/grill, four gas hobs, microwave, kettle, toaster, Nespresso Machine (additional capsules may be purchased), washing machine, under counter fridge with integrated icebox, glassware, crockery and pans. There is more than enough to self cater but should you require anything else, please ask and we will endeavour to obtain it. Breakfast can easily be found at the Garden Centre or in town. However, we are very happy to source some breakfast provisions locally at extra cost. The seating area comprises; a three seater sofa and a padded rocking armchair. There is a small TV and DVD player. A highchair, travel cot and toddler bed can also be provided if requested. Guests are welcome to sit in the vegetable garden and walk around the garden but we regret that we cannot grant access to the trampoline and pool. The Coach House is an integral part of our home (with its own entrance) and so we tend to be available during your stay. We are always happy to recommend local eateries and attractions. Coach House is just a 15-minute walk to the town centre where friendly family-owned restaurants, independent cafes, and unique boutiques await. Head to Burford's famous Garden Company and enjoy going for a hike in the area. Burford town centre is easily walkable. To explore the wider area travel by car or bike is recommended. Charlbury Train Station is 15 minutes by car/taxi. There is off-street parking for one vehicle only and we would ask that you access the drive slowly to avoid coming into contact with our children and animals. We have five lovely chickens which reside in a spacious run and two kittens! Please be aware that the Coach House is situated in a rural area and therefore the Wi-fi connectivity and strength can be variable. Guests are required to leave the property clean & tidy.
