About this property

Pineapple Apartment is on the first and second floors of a unique 16th century terraced house in the centre of Watlington. There is even a view of Watlington Hill from the top.

We are 10 minutes walk from the Icknield Way and the National Trust's Watlington Hill.

Henley on Thames, Oxford, Thame and Wallingford are all about 15-20 minutes drive away.

The property is cosy, (Bijou to our French friends, Gemütlich to our German cousins), and suitable for everyone fit enough to manage a few stairs.

Warm welcome and lovely apartment

Martin was a fantastic host who gave us a warm welcome and was very helpful and considerate throughout our stay. The apartment is well set up, comfortable and has a lot of character. We would both definitely stay again and highly recommend the local food! Lots of nice restaurants, pubs and bakeries and obviously some lovely scenery too.

About the host

Hosted by Martin

We have lived in Watlington since 1981 so our roots are firmly in the ground here and here we will stay. We are lucky to live in this beautiful corner of England with quick access to both Oxford and London.
Pineapple Apartment is located above our interiors business and we live in the house behind both.

What makes this property unique

Pineapple Apartment is in a c16th house in the centre of Watlington. We are ten minutes walk from the Icknield Way (one of Europe's ancient 'roads') which runs from Avebury to Ivinghoe Beacon.
Oxford is 20 minutes drive away and London is an hour's bus ride (Oxford Tube runs 24/7 every 10-20 minutes) from J6 of the M40.
We are 40 minutes drive from Heathrow and not much more from the other London airports.
