Owls Barn - pet friendly, Oxfordshire

Escape the hustle of life at Owls Barn, an immersive countryside retreat that will leave you feeling rested and restored. Listen to the owls, spot the deer in the surrounding fields and explore local walking routes at this excellently located 5-bed sanctuary. Set within The Cotswolds, this bolthole is a great base for a rural escape.

Showcasing spacious open plan living, wooden beams and a glorious outdoor area, Owls Barn has been carefully considered. The layout of the property is practical and thoughtfully designed for relaxing, dining and cooking with your loved ones. The upstairs space is equally as impressive, with a luxurious freestanding bath in the master bedroom and incredible views over the nature reserves out of the windows. Where elegance meets country-chic, this characterful property is a blissful haven.

Outside, you will find a dining terrace with a BBQ made for alfresco dining and many walks to explore. The bath house is a hidden retreat; fill the copper tub with bubbles and unwind.

A wonderful property in an excellent location

Located close to the Thames Path it is very easy to walk straight from the door. Owls Barn has some lovely outdoor seating from which we saw Deer, many birds and even heard a cuckoo. The property itself was clean, comfortable and spacious.

Beautiful house in stunning location

We loved our weekend stay at Owl’s Barn. The house was immaculate and the beds and furniture were spotless and so comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped and we really appreciated the welcome basket and all the toiletries in the bathrooms. The gardens/grounds were beautiful and right in the middle of a nature reserve so it was super tranquil and full of wildlife. The outside bath was the cherry on top!
