Vetted by our experts

Quintessential village life is on your doorstep at this 17th-century thatched cottage set in the heart of Great Tew. A great option for two families or couples wanting to holiday together without overcrowding each other, the bedrooms and the two family bathrooms are set apart via separate staircases for a little extra privacy. While downstairs, the free-flowing living space with an impressive inglenook open fire is all about socialising – as is the enclosed, private garden with a terrace for alfresco mealtimes. Ready to dip your toes into village life? Great Tew’s cafes and pubs are just an amble away over the village green. Or jump in the car to iconic Chipping Norton – just a six-mile drive.

Peace of mind guaranteed with every booking.

We promise expert-vetted homes, total transparency and exceptional service.
