The detail

Take relaxing river walks, visit Oxford's dreaming spires and enjoy village life from the comfort and luxury of this pretty cottage. Set over three storeys, this impeccable property makes the perfect base for those wanting to exploring the area. It is fabulously styled with beautiful furnishings and colour palates, while high-end fixtures ensure guests experience a relaxing, hassle-free stay.

The ground level is predominantly open-plan and stretches from the grand bay window at the front of the cottage to the patio doors at the rear which open out to the private walled garden. The bright kitchen is well kitted-out with a range oven and large fridge with ice-dispenser - perfect for refreshing drinks on hot summer days. This room fills with light through the wall of glass which leads to the garden. Solid wooden worktops and an accompanying island make this a great place to slice socialise whilst preparing dinner.

Tucked around the corner is a good-sized wooden dining table which benefits from having dual views of the gardens while being in handy proximity to the kitchen. Cover the table with delectable dishes, pop the bubbles and enjoy memorable mealtimes with loved ones.

Of course, on warm days, guests will want to take advantage of the pretty outdoor spaces and the walled garden makes a lovely, private spot to enjoy morning coffee or a quiet nightcap.

If the weather turns, or visitors want to take a softer seating option, there are two sitting areas where guests can relax on the fabulous tan leather sofa and arm chairs. Curl up with a glass of wine and a book, enjoy a movie night in front of the television or simply contemplate the day while enjoying views of the lavender-filled front garden.

When it's time for bed, choose from one of the three stylish bedrooms. They all boast wonderfully comfortable beds, crisp linens and lovely views from their windows.

For adventures in the immediate vicinity, take a stroll along the Oxford Canal or the River Thames which can be followed all the way into Oxford. There, visitors are spoilt with a vast array of museums, historic streets and spires which make this world-famous city. Popular eateries nearby include The Trout Inn and The White Heart, both under one mile from Port Meadow View.
