Welcome to my lovely Cotswolds cottage. I recently refurbished it, keeping the original beams and stone walls and adding gorgeous bathrooms and a cosy wood burning stove. There's a private patio and small lawn. It sleeps 8 in very comfortable beds. With easy access by train, bus and car to Oxford, Blenheim Palace, Soho Farmhouse, Daylesford and the rest of the Cotswolds, the house is perfect for families, friends and sightseers. You can walk to 3 pubs, train, bus, deli, Co-op... Toys, books and games for children! My house is a pretty, stone cottage, built in the late 1800s. It's in a terraced row of similar stone cottages. It has three floors/levels. The large, open-plan living space is perfect for entertaining groups or families. In winter you can stay warm with the help of the lovely cosy wood burning stove. In summer the stone keeps it very cool. You can sit around the large oak table with the antique church pew one side and chairs the other. I recently renovated the house, and put in gorgeous bathrooms and extremely comfortable beds. This is our second home and so it is just that - a home! I really want you to feel like this is your home-away-from-home!

I'm a music-oriented mother of one, also working in media/music. I'm half-American. I can't live without my Apple computers, a swimming pool nearby, Audible, country air, fresh mango... and my charismatic daughter. Not necessarily in that order! I'm house proud and keep things rather clean and tidy, but I would hope that's a good thing!

Charlbury is quintessentially "Cotswolds". A pretty market town that feels more likes a village, it's nestled in the Evenlode Valley, designated a national "area of natural beauty". You can walk to the four local pubs, the deli, and you have beautiful local walks right outside the front door. You don't even need a car here! But if you do it's a great place from which to see the rest of the Cotswolds. From the house it's also less than 5 minutes' walk to: - the 4 local pubs, including the lovely Bull Inn, which is a great place to eat dinner, go for a drink, take children, have an early breakfast... - Charlbury train station (trains to Oxford and London one way, and Malvern, and Worcester the other) - the bus stop, with buses to Woodstock/Blenheim/Oxford.. - the lovely Charlbury Deli (cafe) - the Co-op grocery store, which is open 7am-10pm, 7 days a week - a fantastic play park for kids, with tennis courts, which is part of the new public library (including children's section) and which also has a lovely cafe inside and an outside patio with picnic tables - the pharmacy (drug store) By car, it's a 15-minute drive to Blenheim Palace, Witney, Soho Farmhouse/ Daylesford.
