A thoroughbred welcome in the North Cotswold countryside

Once a dairy, The Ox House has been lavishly converted to the very highest standards into a B&B to provide elegance and luxury in a setting that is at once very rural but superbly well-connected. The conversion is brand new, so the latest styles prevail, with soaring open beams and a sense of airy elegance. Set around a walled garden the Ox House provides privacy and comfort in equal measure. It is at the heart of a working farm that schools cross-country and eventing horses, so the setting is calm and rural, only broken occasionally by the sound hooves galloping by.

There are just two guest bedrooms here, one superking and one twin. Both have en-suite facilities which are exceptionally well-appointed with all contemporary comforts fitted this year. The ‘L’-shaped property encloses a quiet walled garden that’s a sheltered sun-trap, perfect for watching new plants get established as a classic farmhouse garden comes vividly to life.

The atmosphere is of airy elegance, with antique furnishings complementing an interior that has been so thoroughly redecorated as to leave little trace of this dairy’s previous life. There’s a large sitting room for guests to relax in and wifi, of course, throughout. There’s a lovely breakfast room that runs on from the glorious kitchen, with an Aga standing ready to cook farmhouse breakfasts.
