This charming cottage is the perfect place for a couple or small family to relax after days spent exploring Oxford, just a thirteen-minute drive away. If you fancy stretching your legs, there are plentiful walks in the immediate area, as is the Seven Stars pub for when you need to wet your whistle. Inside, the living room is kept cosy by a wood-burning stove, and the kitchen has everything you need for rustling up a cooked breakfast. On sunny days, venture into the garden, where you might be fortunate enough to spot some peacocks.
