Pass the Keys | Charming 18th century stone cottage | House in Longworth

About this space
A charming & characterful 18th century stone cottage nestled in the heart of a pretty Oxfordshire village.
The house is deceptively spacious whilst still feeling cosy. There is a cottage garden to the front with a BBQ. Inside, a sociable kitchen dining room and two sitting rooms, one with a projector for movie nights.
With lots of walks on the doorstep and the Cotswolds, Oxford and the Chilterns a short drive away, this is the perfect countryside retreat!

PARKING:

OUT AND ABOUT:
There is a pub immediately opposite - the Blue Boar, which does good drinks and some basic pub food. Our favorite nearby spots are The White Hart in Fyfield (locally sourced ingredients brilliantly cooked); The Plough in West Hanney (community owned pub with excellent food and drink and a lovely atmosphere); and The Double Red Duke in Clanfield (high end gastropub - excellent food, beautiful décor and lovely service). We're close to both Oxford and the Cotswolds so there are no end of great places to eat and drink.
We love heading down to the Thames - you can walk there in 20 minutes from the cottage - it's very peaceful and a lovely spot on a sunny day. There's also the Uffington White Horse (the UK's oldest chalk hillside carving) which is about a 25 minute drive. It has gorgeous views across Oxfordshire and an ancient castle site.

Other things to note
This is our home and we really love it - we hope you do too! We also hope that means you treat it as your own. Please enjoy the cottage and its quirky charm - it's not perfect but we think it will win you over. We'd appreciate you ensuring windows and doors are closed and locked when you leave. Our other big ask is to have respect for our lovely neighbour. She has shared access across the front of the property so you may see her from time to time. She keeps herself to herself and won't disturb you, but we want to stay on good terms!
Please do not attempt to light the fire in the living room, it does not have a working chimney.
As the cottage is 200 years old it does have low ceilings, and beams at head height, along with varying floor heights, please be careful when familiarizing yourself with the cottage.
- We do not allow parties, events or gatherings of any kind, and are conscious of maintaining good relationships with our neighbour.
