Great location and super accommodation
Book for a weeks break and were very pleased with the accommodation. Very high standard and all you need to have a very relaxing stay. Good location to visit my places and the information supplied on location attractions was ever useful. The Dun Inn well worth a visit.
Will definitely be returning.

Lovely stay in a beautiful cottage
We spent three nights at the cottage and it was beautiful. The views out of the lounge window of fields and sheep are wonderful and the cottage was very well equipped. Would not hesitate to book again.

Lovely, peaceful break
We stayed for 4 nights on a very wet week in February - the cottage is a great size for a family of 4, plenty of living/dining space and amazing views out to the countryside.
Would love to return in the summer and enjoy the beautiful outdoor space too.

Beautiful Cottage!
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful cottage. The views are absolutely stunning—such a lovely sight to wake up to each morning. We were fortunate to have some good weather too, which made them even better!
The cottage itself is spacious and well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The off-road parking is a great bonus, and the location is ideal for exploring the Cotswolds. Banbury is just a 20-minute drive away, for supermarkets and shopping.
Overall, a perfect getaway accommodation—highly recommended!
We thoroughly enjoyed the accommodations at the Manor Cottage. The kitchen was beautifully updated, and the view from the sitting room was breathtaking. We loved waking up every morning to the sheep just outside our window. Just a few minutes from the village, made it easy for us to enjoy a stroll or a drive to the local pubs where we were greeted warmly. I highly recommend!

Cosy, comfortable family house with a garden and beautiful views. The welcome is warm. The house is situated in a quiet, rural location on the edge of a village with nice pubs, a supermarket and a brewery.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful area
We spent a very comfortable few days here and found the cottage warm, immaculately clean and spacious. It has lovely views over open fields and although the cottage is situated next to the road we were not disturbed at all by traffic. It’s a short walk (no footpath) into Hook Norton, which is a lovely village with a fantastic butcher and a great village shop that stocks a wide range of groceries.

Lovely holiday house
This is a super place to stay. The house is exceptionally nice. Decorated to a high standard, and very spacious and comfortable. The garden is lovely with a good sized lawn. It also has outdoor table and chairs. It overlooks a field with sheep, and is very peaceful. Great location in the countryside with lots of interesting places nearby, including a park with animals, birds etc. We'll definitely be back.

Generally great, but not the most comfortable sleep!
The cottage was generally fantastic, well-equipped, spacious, peaceful and with wonderful views. Our only gripe is with the mattresses and pillows which were poor quality and really quite uncomfortable; definitely not as good as would have been expected and not in line with the standard of the rest of the cottage.

A wonderful house
A beautiful, cosy, peaceful home. It is equipped with everything you need. We were so grateful to the extras kindly given too. The children loved the garden and watching the sheep. The house is excellently located near attractions and facilities. We are very excited to book again soon. Thank you

A nice place to stay
We took part of our family vacation here and travelled from the US. The house was beautiful and it’s all newly remodeled on the inside. The location is peaceful. It’s in a beautiful place but you will likely need a car to get around (that goes for most of the Cotswolds).
We found the Waitrose grocery store in Banbury to be nice; It’s about 15 minutes away from this vacation rental. Chipping Norton is also close and has a really nice Caffe Nero coffee shop. If you are looking to unwind, this is a good option and a great value for your money.

Great place
This was a lovely house. We went on a short stay with our baby the only problem we had was we wanted to use the garden more and we had lots of lovely sunshine but there was no parasol in the garden so we couldn’t sit out there for too long with a small baby. Unfortunately the high chair was dusty and had hairs on it but we cleaned this ourselves.
Good location for various attractions and not far from the local supermarkets. Lovely views from the house.

Great stay
The cottage is lovely, with an amazing view from the living room. It was very clean and was a great place to stay. The location was good for reaching the main highlights of the Cotswolds. As someone has previously mentioned, the cottage is on a main road but it is very quiet and didn't disturb us at all. As also, mentioned by quite a lot of people, the bed in the main bedroom isn't very comfortable. The main issue for us however, having a lively 3 year old boy, was that there were no keys to lock the windows (other than the bathroom, which oddly had a different lock) so he was constantly climbing onto the low windowsills and opening the windows, which did cause some stress, particularly when he was in the bedrooms upstairs!!

Beautiful property finished to a high quality, a real treat
This was our second time here, over 1.5 years later. The property was still in great condition and spotlessly clean. It has beautiful views and works well as a location. We went with out 3.5 year old and 8 month old. The property worked well as a family as it is a huge space, great heating, parking and outside space. This time round we focused on more child focused days out, such as farms, zoo and a couple of soft plays (the one at Banbury was particularly good). The kitchen is well equipped, the washing machine is good and the internet is perfect. An ikea highchair and a travel cot were provided. We will definitely be returning as it really feels like a holiday.

A beautiful view and wonderful property
This was our third visit - the accommodation really feels like a holiday to us, is wonderfully positioned and always an inspiring setting full of interesting artwork. We go with two young children and it all works really well. The house is also really warm and cosy.

Lovely couple of days away
Had a fantastic stay at the cottage. The location was perfect and the cottage was very well-equipped with everything we needed. If there were any downsides it was that the beds could have been a little bit more comfortable but for a short stay it was not a problem at all. Highly recommended.
My family & I had a wonderful 2 nights stay at 2 Manor Farm. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could require. The views across the landscape were very nice & we enjoyed watching the sheep! The mattresses were a little springy but they were actually quite comfortable & we had a good nights sleep! The property was easy to find & in a good location for us & our plans!

Look out for the elk!
Very nice cottage in a good location for a walk down the road to the pubs and shops in Nook Norton.
Lovely setting! Dining-room table awkward. More country-setting pictures on walls instead of black and white animal pictures would have been appreciated.

Wedding Accommodation
I booked this accommodation for the night before my wedding, and it was absolute perfection! The house was spotless and beautifully maintained, with incredible attention to detail. The garden, complete with grazing sheep and breathtaking views, created the most peaceful and picturesque setting.
From start to finish, the experience was seamless. I had the pleasure of speaking with the property manager, who went above and beyond to accommodate our specific check-in and check-out needs, which made the stay even more stress-free during such a special weekend.
I loved it so much that I wouldn’t hesitate to book again, and I’ll be recommending it to all my friends and family. It truly was the perfect place to stay for my wedding weekend. Thank you for helping make it so memorable!
