Accommodation
All the bedrooms
including two new en-suites have recently been refurbished to an extremely
high standard. All rooms have washbasins, television (50 channels), tea and
coffee making facilities (including biscuits!) and have been designed to
make your stay a comfortable and memorable one.
The bathroom
provides a new 6ft bath and modern power shower. The house has free wifi
throughout and there are also ample plugs for laptops and mobiles.
Children are welcome but by
arrangement please.. Extra beds, cots, shoe cleaning and laundry
services are available on request.
Breakfast is held in
the winter in the dining room but sometimes in the summer, weather permitting,
on the terrace overlooking our pretty south facing garden. If you wish to
be piped down to breakfast, Graham a member of the Oxford Pipe Band, is
happy to oblige.
When cooking we aim to use the very
best organic and free range ingredients, which where possible, are locally
sourced and Graham looks forward to cooking a grand Oxfordshire breakfast
to your choice.
Things to do

For those who wish to explore the
countryside we hold a local walking tour guide book providing short
pre-researched local walks starting and finishing at a pub.
For those less adventurous there are:
Short or long walks from our garden gate along the Old Saxon road and down
to the Thames. A short drive takes you to
the Clumps with its historic Roman ruins and famous views over Oxfordshire.

These are numerous, from the famous Pendon
Model Railway
Museum in the village to the well
known galleries and Ashmolean museum in Oxford, only some 15 minutes drive

The picturesque market towns of Abingdon and Wallingford
are also well worth a visit not just for the shopping. There is of course Blenheim
Palace, the
birthplace of Winston Churchill and many other attractions a short drive
