3 Bedroom Cottage in Bicester, Chesterton

The Cow Shed is a lovingly furnished home-from-home cottage on a working farm in Oxfordshire, just outside the village of Chesterton.

For foodies there are gastro pubs nearby. Free wifi, pet friendly, easy access from Heathrow, and a warm welcome. Longer term lets from Kensington Property Management.
The Cow Shed (yes there really were once happy cows wintering in this cottage, though they are discouraged from returning home these days) is situated on a private estate and farm in Oxfordshire. The nearest village is Chesterton, about a mile away. But please note this is a working farm and there may be animals and other working vehicles moving about the property, especially at harvest time. And there are also farm offices in the adjacent courtyard.
Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds are famous for walks, cycle and horse rides and its idyllic English countryside and villages.
The Cow Shed has a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area with a table suitable for up to six people. The kitchen has all the modern amenities of fridge/freezer, dishwasher, hob, oven and microwave, and washing machine and dryer.
Along the hallway, there is a large sitting room with big comfortable
sofas, a gorgeous wood burning stove, a widescreen TV, free wi-fi and plenty of books and maps and local information to get your teeth into.
The cottage has three bedrooms: one king size; one twin room with two singles; and a further single room. There is also a large family bathroom. There are private gardens at the front and rear of the property, with a lovely outside seating area at the rear for al fresco summer lunches.

Summary: We loved this property. Quiet and peaceful with loads of helpful information from Hugo and Chrissie. It was a treat to spend a day in busy London or Oxford and then return to the tranquility of the Cow Shed in the evening. We loved our stay!

Summary: Firstly we took 2 dogs with us and the garden was not secure for them and they kept getting out as well as a dog from a neighbouring property coming into the garden. There was nowhere within walking distance to take the dogs for a walk which was not very helpful. Also there was no tea, coffee, sugar or milk provided so we were unable to have a drink when we arrived and also no washing up liquid and only one toilet roll which when I queried this we were provided with 2 more.. The internet was very poor and we struggled to get on to it most of the time. Overall we had a lovely time but I think that the property needs a more accurate listing.

Summary: We loved the location, had a great stay and the cow shed met all our needs. There was lots of wildlife about and it was very peaceful. We used it as a base to visit Blenheim, Stowe and Oxford. The owners were very helpful and accommodating.

Summary: The house was so comfortable and Chrissy and Charlie were the most superb and helpful hosts. We were lucky enough to be here during the Covid pandemic and Chrissy and Charlie made our extended stay a dream. The house has everything we needed with some special touches to make it very comfortable and functional, especially during a long-term stay. Life on the farm is quiet and relaxing. I would highly recommend it, short or long-term. It's a great place to recharge!

Summary: We stayed for a week in this welcoming and warm cottage in February 2020 where everything was provided for. Good selection of free food and milk/tea/coffee which took away any stress of having to shop after a long trip from Scotland. Thank you for that. I particularly liked the quality, heavy interlined curtains and blinds! Beautifully warm on arrival, light, airy, lovely views out of windows. All in all, a recommended homely cottage. Communications from the owners were excellent.

Summary: This vacation spot was spacious, clean and in an idyllic setting. We stayed for 4 nights, wish we had stayed longer. Hopefully we will be back again someday. Every little thing that you wanted was present, and more. Thank you so much to the Owners for being the very essence of hospitality.
