As a family of 4 with two young children we can highly recommend The Fox for your stay.
The property is on a working farm, my son loved seeing the sheep moved from field to field. The property itself was immaculate and two lovely sized bedrooms. We were provided with a highchair, travel cot, stepping stool and games for the children. It was the perfect base for exploring the Cotswold and The Shed Cafe only 8 minutes in the car was amazing for cakes and takeaway drinks, this was a daily visit! The hosts were super friendly and we even got to see Molly the dog’s new puppies! The welcome basket was a lovely touch, and all of the necessary kitchen amenities were provided. Great hanging space for clothes in the wardrobe with decent hangers. There was outdoor furniture and we even made friends with our lovely neighbours.
We cannot wait to return to The Fox and we have recommended to our friends and family.

Very quiet house, very bright surrounded by fields.
Very comfortable and convenient.
Perfect location for visiting the north and south Cotswolds.
You can visit Oxford by train (20 minutes). The Charlbury station is 5 minutes from the house.
You have a place next to the house to park the car.
The hosts are very helpful and responsive.
It feels like home.

Such a beautiful cottage, with amazing views. Clean, comfortable, well equipped, on a lovely little farm in a great location. Dog friendly, toddler friendly, and we met the owners several times who were very kind to our little girl and let her watch the sheep being brought in. We had the best holiday, and will be recommending this place to everyone we know.

Wonderful week at The Fox. Great location, very comfortable & well equipped. Lots of great dog walks, cafes and pubs nearby. So nice to stay on a working farm. Would love to stay again.

We had a lovely long weekend at the Fox. The property has only recently been converted from what was originally one of the farm outbuildings. The conversion is to a very high standard, very warm and cosy. The interior is very tastefully decorated.
The owners were very welcoming and friendly but never intrusive. The property was spotless.
The location is ideal for walking and the network of local footpaths is only a few yards away, in fact we didn’t use the car at all during our stay.
We plan to visit again at some point in the future.

We had an absolutely brilliant stay in Jenny and Mark’s beautiful cottage in Charlbury.
Warm, comfortable and stunning views together with everything you need to cater brilliantly for four people
made this feel like home from home during a fabulous Christmas vacation.

Perfect location for visiting Blenheim Palace and Cotswolds Wildlife Park. The cottage was modern, spacious, clean and well furnished. We didn’t want for anything! It even had an EV charger which was ideal for us. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Lovely stay at Fox Cottage. Cottage was clean and comfortable. Owners were on hand if needed. Mark was especially good with our little lad who was keen to know more about the farm.
Great walks from the cottage to the local villages.
Didly squat was fun... main purpose of our visit.
A clothes airer would have been useful to dry our washing but the cottage was so warm it didn't take long to dry things.
5.0 / 5.0
The property was very light and airy. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfy. Lovely surrounding countryside, up a long farm track. It was very handy for Oxford using the park and ride. Chipping Norton, the nearest town, had shops, restaurants and takeaways.

Had a wonderful long weekend at Fox with my dog Honey and my cousin. Great cottage and location, walks from the door. Would love to visit again.

We had a wonderful stay at Fox cottage. Top marks for cleanliness and extremely comfortable beds. Jennie and Mark were most welcoming and very friendly. Although we were staying on a farm we did not hear any noise from the farm machinery. We loved sitting out on the garden furniture every evening and watching the sun setting across the open fields. There is a footpath from the farm which takes you to nearby villages of Spelsbury and Charlbury. Fox is in a really good location for visiting Cotswold villages and other attractions. We would thoroughly recommend a stay at Fox cottage and hope we will return there soon.
5.0 / 5.0
This modern well-equipped barn conversion is in a beautiful location in the middle of the Cotswold countryside, situated on a working farm overlooking the stunning countryside. It was lovely to view the wildlife through the windows, watching the hares in the fields, and also the local barn owl flying by, we were even treated to a show of Jenny and Mark working with the sheep's along with their sheep dogs. Jenny and Mark were excellent hosts they looked after us really well, and we would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in the Cotswolds.
