Tucked into a rural estate outside Oxford, this barn conversion is the kind of place that encourages a slower pace. The living area is flooded with natural light, underfloor heating keeps things comfortable year-round, and a concierge can arrange everything from a private chef to clay shooting. Harcourt Arboretum sits directly next door, and walking routes to the River Thames start from the doorstep. Oxford's park and ride is a ten-minute drive away, with Blenheim Palace and the Cotswolds also within easy reach when you're ready to explore.

Home truths
There's no washing machine here, and linen is only changed after three weeks, so this works best for shorter stays.
The home is in a rural location with no outside lighting, so nights can be very dark – a torch is useful if you're heading out after dark. Food delivery drivers also struggle to find the address, so click and collect from the local Sainsbury's is a better bet for groceries.
For those with reduced mobility, there's a ground floor bedroom and bathroom here.
There's free parking for up to two cars on the driveway.
