About this property

Moonlight Barn - Sleeps 4 Dog-friendly Country Retreat Near Oxford

Once a potting shed for a horticultural business and now thoughtfully renovated with an alpine aesthetic, this unique barn conversion is a luxuriously spacious two-bedroom bolthole ideal for groups to enjoy. Moonlight Barn's combination of reclaimed wood walls, tapestries and artwork offer a sense of sanctuary.

Where tradition meets contemporary design, this property offers the ultimate comfort and versatility of a spacious downstairs open-plan kitchen, dining and snug area, featuring a daybed. Soak up the tranquillity of nature in this space, with floor-ceiling windows offering a prime view of the garden, alongside an abundance of natural light into the property. The cosy living room features two large sofas, underfloor heating and high ceilings, with its warm colour tones providing a delightful opportunity to settle down for the evening. This carefully considered haven is excellent for socialising and spending quality time with loved ones.

Spend sunny days enjoying your own private garden, accompanied by outdoor seating for eating and drinking al-fresco. Bunny rabbits may even be spotted darting around as you approach the property. Should you wish to venture out for the day, explore the charms of your local area on foot or travel by car to Oxford to discover the historic city's most-loved attractions.

Living Room:
The beautifully furnished living room is decorated with warm tones with two large sofas and an armchair to relax in. This room also features a coffee table, smart TV and French doors leading to the patio and garden. The ski themed decor and high-ceilings nod to its alpine character.

On the lawn, there is another table and chairs, beneath a pagoda that the owners constructed from mulberry trees and lined with fairy lights, a peacefully quiet spot to enjoy a BBQ outside or watch the stars.
