Great place to stag

We loved it. Such a beautiful location. Kate was so easy to communicate with. If you want to be able to walk to a pub or facilities then it is not for you, but for an escape in the English countryside, it was perfect.

nettes rustikales Häuschen

Wir haben unseren Urlaub bei Kate sehr genossen. Ein kleines rustikales Häuschen, alles sauber und gepflegt. Es war alles vorhanden, was wir benötigten. Die Kommunikation mit Kate war nett und unkompliziert. Wenn wir wieder einmal in diese Gegend reisen, kommen wir gern wieder.

Abbey farm, goosey lane. Fararingdon

Excellent séjour dans un cadre très sympathique. Petit cottage en pleine campagne mais à proximité de beaucoup de visites...( Oxford..) et de randonnées (Cotswolds). Très bien chauffé pour la saison. Hôtesse très aimable.

My husband and I live at Abbey Farm with my family who are now all grown up and living away from home . The farm is no longer a working farm though there are sheep in the fields. We have a dog, Basil.

Why they chose this property

The cottage is part of Abbey Farm - a 13th -16th Century farm house orginnaly built for the Abbey at Abingdon

What makes this property unique

Abbey Cottage is part of Abbey Farm which is a 17th Century farm set on a historic village green. Although Oxford/Bicester/Bath and historic towns of Wantage and Faringdon are all close by the village of Goosey has a rural atmosphere. We have 35 acres of farm land and woodland walks that you can walk over. There is a narea of the main garden that you can use and also a tennis court. There is also a ping png table which can be used outside when the weather is good.
