About this property

This Victorian stone cottage, built in 1874 and believed to be commissioned by the Churchills to replace the original Alms houses on the site, is situated in the beautiful market town of Woodstock in the Cotswolds, overlooking Blenheim Park. This delightful cottage provides quality accommodation ideal for a romantic break or small family holiday in a picturesque location and is adjacent to the residents' gate providing access to the Park. On the ground floor is a well-equipped kitchen complete with breakfast bar where you can enjoy a morning coffee or a more formal dinner can be enjoyed in the dining room looking out on to a pretty cottage garden with its garden wall overlooking Blenheim Park. After a day exploring this gorgeous historic area you can relax in the cosy sitting room, in front of the warming woodburning stove on the chilly evenings. Make your way upstairs to the two charming bedrooms while the bathroom is ideally situated on the ground floor. The enclosed cottage garden is a mix of mature borders with seating area ideal for enjoying alfresco dining on a summer's evening. Take a stroll around Blenheim Park which is adjacent to the cottage and enjoy the stunning surrounds created by Capabililty Brown, enjoy the beautiful Palace, birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Many lovely walks can be enjoyed from the doorstep of the cottage and the delightful town of Woodstock, just five-minute walk, boasts individual shops, tea rooms and many traditional pubs one of which is the historic Black Prince one minute away. A short drive takes you to many unspoilt Cotswold towns and villages, the university town of Oxford as well as an abundance of National Trust properties. A perfect base for a memorable holiday at any time of year.

Woodstock is a bustling market town with historic, honey- coloured stone streets to explore which are home to antique shops, art galleries and individual shops. There are an array of tearooms, coffee shops and pubs and high-end restaurants to tempt you too. The town is within walking distance of Blenheim Palace, a World Heritage Site. Woodstock is also a good touring base for exploring the university town of Oxford and its many attractions.

    Being left welcome pack pleasent surprise, however parking is a issue but we managed. Cottage itself in need of some TLC, lighting in kitchen under counter fluorescent tubes not working. Sofas not comfortable when you've been out all day, Shower touch & go Conservatory beautiful, but garden a let down very overgrown broken plant pots rusty dog water bowl,such a shame when sitting outside when you look out at lake. I'm sure once these are taken into account it'll be lovely for others, this is not disabled friendly.

    Perfect location, would highly recommended.

    I was aware there was no parking so it is not a critique of the property but more so Woodstock as the parking was few and far between so we had to move the car around a lot and search for places to park. The only thing I’d change within the accommodation was the sofas, not very comfortable at all, which is something you really want on a winters break. Apart from that I had a lovey stay.
