  • Spacious Cotswolds barn conversion in the lovely village of Cote
  • Superb rural retreat just a few miles from the market town of Witney, and Bampton used for the film set for Downton Abbey
  • Excellent walking and cycling routes from the doorstep with footpaths and cycle ways leading to the River Thames
Property code: CC059

Sitting in the pretty village of Cote, this beautiful cottage has maintained much of its original charm. Sleeping eight people over four bedrooms and welcoming two waggy-tailed friends, this barn conversion boasts a cosy atmosphere that’s perfect for families or groups of friends who want to get together and relax in the heart of Oxfordshire. And with a lovely enclosed garden and patio, you can bet that your furry friends will love it.

Located in a complex of rural properties, this spacious cottage is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy quality time with your loved ones. Prepare a group dinner in the well-equipped kitchen and dine at the farmhouse table in the dining room. Alternatively, head through the patio doors and dine alfresco on the delightful enclosed terrace as your pups enjoy the freedom of the garden. Chill out in the country-style lounge – an exceptionally cosy place due to its original limestone wall feature – or head to one of the four stylish bedrooms for a good night’s rest.

Take your pups for a star-studded stroll in the bustling village of Bampton (1 mile), which stood in for the fictional Yorkshire village of Downton in the hugely popular Downton Abbey series. Alternatively, treat your hounds to a romp around Blenheim Palace (14.5 miles). Although dogs are not allowed within the palace grounds or pleasure gardens, the parkland surrounding Blenheim Palace is beautiful, free to visit and utterly dog friendly. Or stretch your legs on the Bernwood Butterfly Trail (22 miles). This 2-mile hike through ancient meadows and hedgerows is famous for the quantity and variety of its butterfly residents.

A family ranging from 11 to 91 years old had a really lovely break in this wonderful lodge. The enclosed back area was perfect for my dog as well. Beds upstairs were comfy and kitchen had everything you need to bake / cook. Hosts left us bread, milk and homemade butter which was so lovely. Thank you

We enjoyed our stay at Orchard Barn. The cottage was clean and very well equipped. One of our group is disabled and the downstairs bedroom with its en-suite bathroom and shower was perfect. We loved sitting outside on the patio to have drinks and breakfast, watching the wildlife and listening to the birds.
