This accommodation is fairly new but has a lot of technology.
This accommodation is fairly new but has a lot of technology. I was there for 2.5 weeks and it was very peaceful and tranquil. The over look was of fields with sheep and cows. 12 minutes to Burford. Very close to other Cotswolds attractions. Easy to find and the owner couldn't have been more helpful. A gem of a find and would recommend it to anyone.

What a beautiful place to stay! Me and my partner had the loveliest time staying at the Old Stables. Wonderful peaceful location with lovely local pubs just a short drive away. Will definitely be returning.
Very welcoming with several high tech inclusions. Lovely view of fields and farm animals. Comfortable furnishings and very calming. Not far from most attractions. Very good wifi too. Would definitely recommend this as a stay
