Our period Georgian village house is set in a large walled sunny garden with views of the Wittenham Clumps - a well known Oxfordshire landmark.

 

Long Wittenham is an ancient village on the banks of the River Thames. It has three village pubs with good food and wine, a miniature railway museum, excellent walks and is close to an 18 hole golf course. Oxford is nearby with a convenient rail and bus service.

 

Relax and enjoy your stay with a glass of wine in the peaceful garden and watch the sun go down.

 

The Grange is a non smoking house. .

Our house combines the conveniences of  modern family home with enhanced original features - a graciously curving staircase instills a sense of well being and comfort from the moment you arrive. We have welcoming dogs - a labrador and a miniature wirehaired dachhound - instantly loved by children. Four or more friendly Shetland sheep live in our paddock.
