Property code: OC-87367

This amazing house is on a quiet country lane in a hamlet in rural Oxfordshire just an hour by train from London and Birmingham ¬– it’s perfect for a short break, holiday or get-together with your besties. There’s lots to love about it, like space for ten humans and three dogs, a hot tub, a pool table, and an enormous garden with a lovely big patio where pup pals can play. You can even book treatments with a complimentary therapist at the house or Pilates lessons in the garden, and if you or your furry friends want to use the next-door field for zoomies, you just have to ask.

The lovely big lounge has a pool table and wood burner next to the conservatory with its gorgeous views. There are two dining tables that seat ten guests together (the larger table has additional sections to seat up to twelve guests), and bi-fold doors opening to the patio. The house has five bedrooms: a king with an en-suite, two twin zip-and-links, and a double on the first floor, plus an office area that connects to another double with an en-suite on the second floor. The vast wraparound garden has a large patio with a gas BBQ and outdoor furniture for drinks and dinners, and, of course, the bubbling hot tub.

If you’re looking for something fun to do during your stay, the Silverstone motor racing circuit is 14 miles down the road. The beautiful city of Oxford is 10 miles away and the awe-inspiring Blenheim Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and recognisable as the filming location for several movies, is 8 miles away. There’s great shopping at the retail outlet near Bicester, 2.5 miles away, and the town of Bicester has some lovely places to eat, including some pet-friendly options for your pack.
