This property sits on the edge of the pretty village of Milton under Wychwood, surrounded by miles of open countryside,  with an excellent variety of shops, pubs, restaurants and tea rooms in the  Cotswold town of Burford, just four miles away. The nearby historic towns of Stow-on-the-Wold and Chipping Norton are just 8 miles down the road or the popular Stratford-Upon-Avon just an hour away. To the south lies the ancient market town of Cirencester on the River Churn, surrounded by picturesque Cotswold villages, such as Bilbury and Barnsley. For the best of both worlds, why not spend a day in the City of London by taking the stress-free train from Charlbury, just 5 miles away, then come back to this comfortable Cotswold house to put your feet up and relax.

We staid with two persons in the apartment and had a very pleasant time. The owner gave us a warm welcome and was most helpful with any queations. The house is situated in a quiet area surrounded in green. Ideal place to start walks or to take the car and discover the region. When visiting the area we would certainly stay again.

This apartment was in an ideal position for visiting various locations across the Cotswolds. The owner of the property lives on site and we received a very warm welcome. Along with a lovely cake and bottle of wine. We only ate breakfast at the property so needed the minimum amount of equipment but all was good and we found everything we needed.

The flat is lovely, comfortable and spacious. Also the garden and fishpond are beautiful and very restful. The owner, Wilhemina is a pleasure to talk to and she is very kind.

No hesitation in recommending this apartment. Ideally situated to explore all the Cotswolds and was so cosy. Mrs Church is a lovely person and was a pleasure to meet and talk with. The Hare pub is a short walk and very good and also The Lamb. We were blessed with lovely weather too. Would definitely return!
