Nestled in the picturesque village of Swalcliffe, Oxfordshire, this beautifully restored two-bedroom holiday cottage seamlessly blends historical charm with modern comforts. Once the Old Post Office, the property retains its rich heritage, showcasing character features like exposed beams, a charming fireplace, and the original staircase leading to the main bedroom. This primary bedroom offers a king-size bed, a luxurious dressing area with double sinks, and a spacious en-suite bathroom with both a bath and a separate shower.
The cottage invites relaxation with a cosy snug, complete with an open fire, while the contemporary rear of the property opens into an airy, open-plan kitchen, dining, and seating area. Bi-fold doors on either side lead to an internal courtyard on one side and a lovely garden deck on the other. Outside, a tiered garden with various seating areas descends to a large lawn and a summerhouse beside a small, peaceful stream. A second modern staircase leads to an additional king-size bedroom and a separate bathroom with a shower over the bath, making this cottage ideal for two couples or friends.
The village of Swalcliffe, located at the edge of the Cotswolds, embodies quintessential English countryside charm with its historic stone cottages, welcoming village green, and a nearby pub—just a couple of doors down—that often hosts themed nights. The cottage’s location in front of the village church adds to its sense of timeless appeal. Surrounded by scenic walking trails, it’s perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, with paths that wind through rolling hills, farmland, and wooded areas.
Nearby, the renowned Soho Farmhouse offers luxurious amenities, including dining, spa treatments, and recreational activities, ideal for those seeking a refined experience. The historic town of Banbury is also a short drive away, where visitors can explore a bustling market, the iconic Banbury Cross, and the 17th-century Tooley’s Boatyard. The charming Cotswold villages of Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold, and Chipping Norton are within reach, offering delightful shops, tea rooms, and artisan markets.
For history enthusiasts, nearby Broughton Castle is a magnificent moated manor with beautiful gardens and medieval architecture, while Upton House and Gardens provides a glimpse into 20th-century elegance. Families will also enjoy the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens, home to a wide variety of animals set within stunning landscapes.
Whether you’re exploring quaint villages, discovering historical sites, or simply unwinding in the cottage’s scenic garden, this holiday retreat in Swalcliffe promises an unforgettable countryside escape.
