Review
Set in the heart of Oxfordshire's Burford, a town that looks straight off a chocolate box lid, this black-and-white-timbered, 17th-century town house positively bursts with tearooms, crafts shops and antiques. Upstairs, the dark-beamed bedrooms are small but perfectly formed, brimming with well-chosen antique furniture and lovely porcelain. You’ll find thick Witney blankets on the beds, vases of tulips and, in the Sherborne room, a four-poster bed and an enormous bathroom with a rolltop bathtub for two. The family photos dotted around the place will make you feel like you’re staying with friends (if only they would lose the teddy bears on the beds). To top it off, a sweet-smelling walled flower garden beckons beyond the back doors.
Who Should Stay
Low-maintenance couples and families who want to be within walking distance of shops and restaurants.
