Adorable little cottage

The only negative thing I have to say is the bed was not terribly comfortable. Too hard. But maybe some people like that. Otherwise, this place was wonderful. Very clean and so quaint English countryside. If you're looking for a romantic getaway, this would be ideal.

Double booked!!! No place to stay

We arrived in Cassington and had trouble locating the address. We called the owner who referred us to her property manager who told us he could not see where we rented the place. I provided proof and then he indicted that VRBO must have a glitche in their system , sorry….the cottage is already rented for the weekend. I had to find another place an hour away !!!! Never had this experience before with VRBO… not happy about it….

Great location, needs updates

The location and cleanliness of the property were outstanding. Both beds (upstairs and futon downstairs) are badly in need of replacement, and the TV is so old that it has a constant blue tint. The place would receive a 5 star if there were better mattresses, new TV, and a small table and chairs were added near the front window.

Amazing cottage

Perfect central location close to surrounding villages. Lovely cottage with all the amenities you will need. A nice and quiet place with little noise from the roads. Very chilled and relax, couldn't ask for more. I would stay here again if I am in the area again. Ideal for Blenheim Palace Christmas fayre and lights. Would recommend.

Bizzarre and enigmatic

This place is an enigma. The owners have built two very nice cottages , as a duplex, side by side and they are very tastefully done and well appointed ; and an effort has been made to make their external lines totally compatible with the nearby Dove House. Very well done . Communication from the owner was poor. But the absolute strangest thing is that there is a HUGE PILE ( about 25 to 30 cubic meters) of firewood just one meter form the back door which is also DANGEROUSLY locked. No access or egress from there. No view except of firewood but from the upstairs it is very nice . What a waste of what could be a lovely outdoor sitting area and pleasant aspect Such a pile of flammable material just a metre from public accommodation is possibly illegal. Quite bizarre Numerous guests have commented on this We urge the owners to either explain it or move it. AND to provide a key to the back door

Lovely cottage apart from sitting room view .

Pros- setting, presentation of cottage, location, comfort. Cons -Main room has a large picture window which is blocked off with nettles and stored firewood. This is weird to look out on and means the downstairs is very dark.

4 day visit to Oxford area.

The property was well placed to visit Oxford City and surrounding areas from a typical small and quiet village.We used car (park and ride) and cycled into town(half hour) along cycle paths. The property had superb views at the front of village church and garden,but rear view through French windows was totally obscured by a wood store

Superb three night break near Oxford.

Spotlessly clean and very well appointed cottage, warm and cosy in a village setting yet with easy access to Oxford. A very enjoyable stay in lovely surroundings. We would recommend this cottage as an excellent base from which to explore Oxford, Blenheim Palace and the Cotswolds.

Lovely place to enjoy Oxford and the Cotswolds

My wife and I stayed here in early January. Cosy and warm the cottage had everything we needed. Very clean and tidy. We felt right at home very quickly. Bed was comfortable and had a couple of great sleeps. My wife in particular loved the bells ringing from the chuch next door. Being a runner I enjoyed a couple of enjoyable runs in the nearby surrounds and only a short drive from Blenheim Palace, which is well worth a visit. Or two in our case. A great base to explore the Cotswolds or head into Oxford. There are regular bus services from the nearby A40 which are the best way to get into Oxford I'd say. Overall a very enjoyable stay and we'd be very happy to return again in the future!
