3 Bedroom Cottage in Charlbury

Brown's Cottage is a handsome, 17th Century, three-story, terraced Cotswold stone townhouse that sits on Brown's Lane, a quiet road running down to the centre of the small market town of Charlbury. To the rear is a short path leading to a tall garden gate, through which is the cottage's secluded patio.
Conveniently located just a minute's walk from the centre of the village and ten minutes' walk from Charlbury train station (built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel in 1853), the cottage is on a residential road, with a small leafy park to one side, free on-street parking and a well-stocked food store across the road.
Step through the front door and you'll instantly feel the warmth, history and style of the cottage. The owners have perfectly blended the gorgeous interior design, luxury furnishings and amenities with the cottage's historic features. Guests will instantly notice the nod to the owner's travels, with beautiful and interesting objet d'art throughout the cottage from the African continent. A spacious living room greets you, with the original inglenook fireplace and comfy armchairs to one end and a sofa and smart TV to the other. Head through into the delightful light and bright kitchen and dining area, with French doors to the patio. Upstairs are two spacious, king-size bedrooms, one ensuite, a single room and a luxury shower room.Ground Floor

The Living Room:
You will be immediately struck by the spacious yet cosy feel of this beautifully stylish room, with its exposed Cotswold stone wall at both ends and exposed timbers running the length of the room. To one end is the original inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove and two large armchairs, perfectly positioned to curl up by the fire and relax or read, while to the other end is a three-seater sofa, coffee table and custom-built dresser housing the smart TV, extra drinks glasses and lots of novels and travel books. The Living Room has sisal flooring, perfectly blending with the tone of the fabrics and Cotswold stone, which continues upstairs to the bedrooms.
The Kitchen-Dining Area:
From the Living Room pass through an oak door into the delightful Kitchen-Dining Area. The kitchen is fully equipped to serve every need for cooks and chefs staying at Browns, from the Blanco stone sink to the Smeg appliances and Neff oven. The polished stone floor is softened with a large seagrass mat, while plenty of wall and ceiling lighting make the white stone kitchen surfaces a light and bright cooking space.
Beside the kitchen is the dining area set in a gorgeous bright and light extension with a lantern roof and a huge wicker lampshade, making this a fantastic space for entertaining and dining. An antique, rectangular table comfortably seats five guests on three chairs and a bench seat running along the window, looking out to the patio. (Outdoor cushions can be found under the bench.) An attractive upcycled antique sideboard houses serving plates, bowls, jugs and tableware.
Utility Room:
At the far end of the Kitchen-Dining Area is a sliding oak door behind which is an Aladdin's Cave of appliances and household items, including the microwave, washing machine, dryer, ironing board, iron, clothes airer, and a large stone sink. A large window looks out from the Utility Room to the patio.
Study Area:
To one side of the Kitchen at the foot of the stairs, with the French windows opening to the patio, is a lovely space furnished with a beautiful antique desk and captain's chair and reading lamp. It's the perfect place to work or plan the day's activities and leave maps, and books, and charge up personal devices.First Floor

Summary: We felt immediately at home at Browns Cottage, which was immaculately clean, extremely well stocked with every possible thing that we could have needed supplied. Beds were very comfortable with beautiful linen. Parking was a challenge but we did not move our cars over our two day stay, as we did a lovely walk from the cottage door - the Charlbury circular, via Cornbury Park and the pub at Finstock (about 5 miles, easy). The Bull pub is a few yards away and we enjoyed a tasty meal on one night.

Summary: We loved our stay at Browns Cottage. Extremely clean, beautifully decorated, exactly as the pictures show. Ideal central location close to several gastro pubs and local stores. Only 15 minutes from Soho Farmhouse. Would highly recommend staying here and we can’t wait to go back.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay at Browns Cottage and the lovely Charlbury. We had an initial issue with the heating but would like to thank Debbie who helped to sort it out and, in particular, Darryl who rang and talked us through the process - whilst on his honeymoon!! Sorry to disturb you, Darryl but thanks again.

Summary: We are a family of 5 and just stayed at Brown’s cottage. It is just as it appears in photos. Very clean, perfectly configured and beautifully decorated. It was fully equipped with comfortable beds and with all the elements we needed for the perfect stay. The cottage is conveniently situated in town. The property manager Deborah was excellent at communication and very accommodating. We would not hesitate to stay at Brown’s cottage again the next time we are in the area!

Summary: The house is pretty and the small town is lovely. A big mistake; You can’t put your legs under the dining table. I forgot my earrings. Called and texted the host, but never did I get a reply! In the garden behind the Bell you can relax and drink cocktails and eat pizza. A hidden gem.

Summary: A gorgeous cottage in the most amazing location - a stones throw from some lovely pubs. The cottage was clean, comfortable and the interiors were beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and have already recommended the cottage to friends. We will be back one day! Thanks

Summary: We loved staying at Brown’s Cottage. It is a beautifully presented traditional cottage with modern conveniences - fast internet, Netflix, supermarket a few steps away. The only two things I would fix is to change the basin taps (having two confusing taps vs one - but at least they went into one mixer) and a better shower in the top bedroom (rather than a hand mixer over a bath). Otherwise it’s perfect.
