About the home

Rose Barn is an beautiful and contemporary barn conversion sitting in the tranquil surroundings of a former farm in the Oxfordshire countryside. The property has recently undergone complete and careful renovation and today provides a spacious, welcoming holiday home for families and small groups alike.

The enclosed courtyard garden to the front of the property makes it particularly safe for children. The glass front to the property matches the contemporary interior and fills it with sunlight. It is set within Chimney Meadows, the largest nature reserve of the BBOWT (Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wildlife Trust).

The site totals 250 hectares of wildlife rich land along the banks of the River Thames. The reserve is of national importance for its species-rich wetland meadows that support large numbers of now scarce ground-nesting birds, and provides a haven for curlew, snipe and reed bunting. Oxford, Cheltenham, the Cotswolds and London approx 1.5 hours away. Children and well behaved dogs welcome.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
Flat screen TV with Free view and DVD, modern corner sofa, wood burner, stove, another sofa, two armchairs, drinks tray and small table, Ipod docking station; huge, very light dining room, with glass front and sideboard. Seats 10.

“Great place for a group holiday” I stayed here for my hen weekend as part of a group of 8 girls. We couldn't have hoped for better - there was plenty of space for us all to sit down in the dining room and the living room, and the kitchen was a good size. Sometimes apartments or cottages don't have enough living space but that definitely wasn't a problem here. The only issue was the showers - there were only two and neither of them were particularly effective. But that's only a minor point. I highly recommend this property.

“Beautiful place in a beautiful setting” We spent a long weekend at Rose Barn and were happy with our choice when we arrived. The barn is a great size, clean and well decorated offering a number of well kitted out and comfortable rooms. We had such a nice stay we are looking to rent out the other barns alongside this one for a bigger group in 2012. The welcome cake was also extremely yummy!

“High quality spacious accomodation in peaceful surroundings made for a great holiday.” Rose Barn was a delightful place to stay.Situated beside a nature reserve you felt very much away from it all but in reality it was very near lots of beautiful Cotswold villages and only 30 minutes from Oxford. The Barn was very roomy and took six adults and two young children (3 years and 1 year) with ease. It was very safe for our grandchildren. No stairs and the courtyard gate could be shut to keep them safe in the garden. We all enjoyed a great holiday in lovely surroundings

“Simply amazing! Gorgeous barn & beautiful location.” Rose Barn is lovely! In the middle of the countryside with beautiful views. It is spacious and fully equiped with everything that makes being away from home easier. All nine girls in my party thoroughly enjoyed their stay.

“Surrounded by peace, quiet and not much else” We stayed here for 8 nights and enjoyed every minute. The three properties have been beautifully renovated and decorated and are more than comfortable. If it's peace, solitude and miles of walking you want, then this place is for you. The owners/manages were very accommodating with every request and bent over backwards to make our stay perfect. Two negatives were that there is only one shower (though several bathrooms) for the whole apartment so if you do have the 10 people it's definitely a squeeze. The second is the distance to anything although this might be exactly what you want!

Guestbook for Rose Barn

We all thought that the barn was superb! Very well designed, well kitted out and perfect for a New Year getaway. The Barn was clean on arrival and we were impressed with the champagne and chocs waiting for us. The whole barn had pretty much everything we needed...We liked the place so much we also wanted to ask about availability for next year? Graham K, Jan 2009
