This Grade II listed home happens to be one of the oldest buildings in Charlbury. And while some parts may date back to the 1400s, the rest has been thoughtfully curated to inspire optimum comfort and relaxation. Set across three floors, the rooms are cosy and well-suited to families. It’s worth noting there are low ceilings on the top floor, but you will find an abundance of charm and a luxurious roll-top bath. There is also a walled courtyard with a charcoal barbecue, and your host can arrange sweet extras like hampers and food boxes. From here, it’s just a short stroll to the nearest shops and pubs, while hiking trails can be found within easy reach.
