This lovely bolthole for two and your precious pooch is set in a gorgeous apple, pear and plum tree orchard, offering tranquil surroundings for your remote getaway. Set on the edge of the Chiltern Hills AONB, enjoy long and scenic walks through the countryside, discovering quaint villages along the way, before returning home for an evening tipple under the setting sun.
Meander through the fairytale orchard of fruit trees and into your holiday home. Unwind as you make yourselves a piping hot brew and put your feet up in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with the Smart TV streaming a classic box set and your furry friend nestled at your toes. Serve up Fido's dinner in the fully-equipped kitchen space, before rustling up something delicious for the humans to enjoy at the dining table, or the rear patio on warm evenings. At the end of the day, enjoy a long soak in the well-appointed bathroom, before retiring to the sumptuous double bedroom that awaits with its en-suite WC. Outside, tuck into a good book, sitting under the trees in this calming space as the pooch plays safely in the garden – a wonderful spot to start the day with a morning cuppa.
It's possible to leave the car keys at the property and immerse yourselves in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for woof-welcoming routes through woodlands and rolling hills. The Chiltern Way passes through the village of Watlington, making this cottage the perfect location for joining such a well-renowned trail. Alternatively, you could head to Watlington Hill (1.5 miles) for a dog-friendly route that passes impressive views over the Vale of Oxford, and spot rare species of birds and butterflies as you go. Oxford (14 miles) has a wealth of things to see and do, including its vibrant culinary scene, quaint bookshops, botanical gardens and Britain's oldest university.
