Are you looking for the perfect Cotswold bolthole? This home in Charlbury could be it. Let us give you a tour. First of all, the pretty courtyard garden is ideal for an alfresco meal or evening drink. Inside, there’s a cosy, warm and inviting living room with ochre yellow walls. Gather around the log burner effect fire when the weather turns chilly and read one of the classic books or play a game with the pack of cards here. Upstairs, we love the views from the master bedroom over the charming street with its higgledy-piggledy Cotswold stone houses. This home is just the ticket for a couple looking for a romantic countryside break or a family with a child. Situated in the gorgeous Evenlode Valley, Charlbury is surrounded by beautiful Cotswold countryside. There are so many lovely walks to enjoy, including one along the River Evenlode to Ditchley Park. Hikers can also take advantage of the Oxfordshire Way, which passes through the town. For everyday needs, there’s a convenience store 300 metres away. A farmer’s market is also held quarterly on the 2nd Saturday in March, June, September, and December. Or pop to the local deli, just a one-minute walk from this home. It’s the same distance to the pub, a 16th-century coaching inn if you fancy a hearty meal or just a drink. Other attractions in the area include Blenheim Palace, which is 11 kilometres from this adorable cottage.
