About this cottage rental

Arriving through fine iron gates to this home swathed in greenery is the perfect start to your Oxfordshire escape. From your first steps inside you can see the attention to detail at Otmoor House is exceptional. Bespoke interior design has made this house into a country retreat, with everything you could need waiting for you. From perfectly placed armchairs under soft lighting to cloud-like beds and the beautiful hand-crafted kitchen to quirky antique window framed mirrors. Spending time here is akin to a stay at a boutique hotel.

Otmoor House has a wonderfully harmonious layout. From the tranquil sitting room, the space gently moves through to the simply gorgeous kitchen and dining area, with French doors opening onto the terrace with its big sky views. Mingle amongst your group, making space for yourself or with others while you fill a plate with produce from the local farm shop, sip wine or play games in the garden with the children. As the evening draws in, the fire can be lit to keep chills at bay or get cosy in one of the exceptionally styled bedrooms where morning lie ins are hard to resist.

Staying here you are surrounded by stunning rurality with just Otmoor nature reserve and village views in the distance, beckoning you to start your days with a coffee on the terrace and a stroll through the reserve that deer, hares and birdlife all call home. Walk into Beckley to visit the super local pub, and don't miss out on Oxford, a city soon to be one of your most treasured destinations.

Ground Floor

Entrance Hall
Inspiring your stay with images of Oxford and Otmoor Nature Reserve, the spacious entrance hall is a lovely introduction to your break away. Take off your shoes, coats, and leave your bags as you race off to explore this home-from-home.

Utility
This useful space is handy for cleaning up after a country walk and keeps the noise of laundry from disturbing your meals and conversations.

Kitchen/Diner
Beautifully combining a range of textures, colours and patterns, this open plan room feels Soho inspired. Fun artwork adds a certain charm, making this a wonderful room to spend time in. You will delight in cooking here before dining with country views framed by the French doors.

Sitting Room
Evenings spent in the sitting room are a relaxing affair. Light the fire to add a warming crackle as you chat over after-dinner coffees, watch a film or play a game of cards. There is space to set up a laptop or put your feet up and sink into a good book, letting time pass you by.

Shower Room
With a dash of colour from bold tiling and spacious rainfall shower, you can get ready for an evening stroll to the village pub for a great meal.

First Floor

Bedroom One
This is a true hideaway, inspired by the views across the nature reserve. With wallpaper featuring waterbirds, plant life and the natural tones of reed beds, this room envelopes you in comfort. The super king-size bed is oh so inviting and will make weekend lie-ins top of your to do list.

En-Suite
Tucked away, the en-suite provides extra space and privacy for guests for the master bedroom.

Bedroom Two
Using the same tones as found throughout this house, this king-size bedroom is a sanctuary of calming natural hues. Soft lighting, a view through the trees and hints to the history of this house in the exposed beams will make this room a firm favourite.

Bathroom
A room you'll want to linger in, sinking into the bubble filled rolltop bath, enjoying the views and bathing in the natural light.

Bedroom Three
Retreat to bedroom three where delicate blues contrast the wooden beams. Artwork by Charlie Mackesy adorns the walls, so you start your day with a smile. Perfect for younger guests this room has a super king-size bed which can be arranged as two singles on request.

Outside

The garden is equally as charming as the house. Planted with trees so you have the perfect shaded picnic spots there is a large lawn to stretch your legs and have a kick about with the children. On the terrace the table and chairs are set so you can make the most of your surroundings, gazing across the view between courses.

We absolutely fell in love with Otmoor house, and found it very hard to leave. Not only does it provide you with the tranquility of the area and beautiful views, but a lot of effort has been spent on the interior decor with so much attention paid to every detail. It was a real treat living in the cottage, and cannot recommend it enough! Our hosts were absolutely lovely and incredibly helpful. There is a lovely walking route starting at the door, around the fields and RSPB reserve where you could do bird watching at the bird hideout over the moor, taking you back up through a forest to the local village where we’ve enjoyed lunch at the local pub which has a spectacular outdoor space with views over the hills. There is a local farm shop where you could PYO fruits, veg and flowers and other lovely local produce. We can’t wait to return soon, a true gem!

Otmoor House was just amazing . A perfect place to experience farm stay near Oxford . Fresh air , modern living home away from home . Host Jo and John were absolutely lovely and made our stay even more pleasant . Will definitely be back . It’s only 25 mins from Oxford and Bicester and 55 mins to Daylesford farm and Bourton on water

We had a fantastic holiday at Otmoor House, the house was spotless, beds were hotel standard and you could get lost in the exceptional view. The views of the filling countryside and wetlands made for a stunning backdrop best placed in a national geographic photo shoot!! The local farm shop, pick your own and even the historic city of Oxford were all close by, so we were never short of things to do. The owners/hosts were so welcoming and accommodating it felt like we were family!! The only downside we had was not staying longer, so would recommend to anyone looking for an idyllic escape from their busy world and looking to unplug for a week or two (don’t worry there was very good WiFi!!)

It really is as good as it looks in the photos. Superb, quality furnishings throughout. Wonderfully quiet. Amazing, isolated location with fantastic views. What you can't see on the photos are the lovely hosts, John and Jo, who looked after us so well. Apparently, we were the first occupants and we were very privileged to be so. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
