Situated in the picturesque region of Banbury, Oxfordshire, this charming accommodation offers a perfect retreat for those seeking a tranquil getaway in the Heart of England. Nestled on a farm within the historic grounds of the 12th-century Clattercote Priory, the property is surrounded by serene horse paddocks, embodying the essence of a Cotswold hideaway. Its proximity to the village of Clattercote places it at the intersection of cultural history, with easy access to renowned locations such as Oxford, Warwick, and Stratford-upon-Avon, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.
Banbury, located just six miles away, provides a vibrant shopping experience with attractions like the Castle Quay Shopping Centre, alongside a variety of nightlife options.

Upon entering the cottage, guests are greeted by an inviting open-plan layout that features a cozy lounge area complete with ample seating and a television. The charm of the original fireplace and the large chimney breast, along with the preserved old bread oven, adds character to the space. The well-equipped kitchen includes modern amenities such as an electric oven, fridge with ice box, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and microwave, ensuring a comfortable stay. The ground floor also hosts a comfortable double bedroom, accompanied by a bathroom featuring a shower over bath and WC.
