This is a nice holiday home however there were a few things that were annoying such as ,awful saucepans that had the non stick flaking off, and half of them didn't work on the induction hob! Hooks in the bathroom fell off when lifted the towels as it wasn't screwed in properly. The single beds weren't made up so I had to do them and the double bed slats were jumping all over the place , which I fixed to secure. The battery lights weren't working and the fire stick didn't work even when new batteries were put in. Only one shower mat for 2 shower rooms and the older rundown shower room isn't shown in the photos. However, the area is nice and the hot tub is a bonus and the owner responded really quickly to queries. I would stay again if it was cheaper as it is really over priced. lovely walks across the road into the wood were good .

On arrival the rooms were cold. Host had only just put thermostat on prior to our arrival and the rooms took a few hours to heat, some radiators did not work throughout our stay. Dishwasher had been left for us to unload.Cleaning was not to a good standard resulting in us hoovering some rooms ourselves. TV stopped working due to batteries in control running out at 9pm and on calling the Host we were told that we would have to go out and get batteries ourselves or wait until the morning. also the radiators which were not working could not be dealt with until the next day (we were only there for 3 days)! The Host then went on to say that we had not paid alot of money for the Cottage since it normally rented for alot more! We had paid a substantial amount of money. There was no flexibility with early check in and late check out. In the end we checked out 1 hour late and had to pay the Host payment in cash. The showers are very small and water pressure was very poor also no floor towels provided. We were also told that, if the hot water ran out it was because we were showering for too long.The kitchen/living space and garden/hot tub were the best parts of the accommodation.Unfortunately, due to the issues mentioned above and the Host's attitude and rudeness we would not stay here again or use Vrbo again.For the inconvenience which we were caused we would have hope that the Host would have offered us the late checkout payment back as a gesture of goodwill.

Overall, really nice accommodations. Very convenient to Oxford, 15 mins to main area. Only comment, is that the showers were a little tight.

Great place to stay close to Oxford and other sites!

This was a great place to stay if you want a quiet place in the beautiful countryside - plenty of space to spread out with a family of 6! We loved using the hot tub after long days of sightseeing. It was a great location for hopping into Oxford (10-15 min.) and to drive over to Windsor castle and Stonehenge. The train is about 10 minutes away to make day trips to London! Great place for a group or family! Plus there are a couple pubs with good food just a couple minutes away or lots of restaurants in Oxford.

大変広く、設備も問題なかったです。子供と滞在しましたが、ジャグジーや、ミニビリヤードなど、楽しむことができました!車があればとても便利で、オックスフォードやコッツウォルズなどいろんなところに行くことができるでしょう。ヒースロー空港までも1時間くらいです。歩いて行けるところにイギリス料理のレストランがあり、とても美味しいしフレンドリーでした。
