Description

Hollyhock House is a large and heavenly period farm house . It is situated at the edge of village Stonesfield. In an AOB area. It’s an ideal base to recharge your batteries. The house boasts a new oak framed dinning room, which is now the focal point of the front of the house. The dinning room hosts 11 people comfortably. It's ideal for entertaining your friends and family, plus it has an arctic cabin in the garden, and fabulous views of the surrounding countryside.

It is the ideal base to stay, with access to the Cotswolds, where you could and stop for lunch/spa/yoga at Daylesford Farm. Bus routes allow you to get the bus to Woodstock, Oxford, Charlbury and Cotswolds. You can take a tour and visit Blenheim Palace, Cornbury estate, Cherwell EQ, as well as Oxford Universities and Colleges. You can take the children to Cotswold Wildlife park. Being sited in the centre of one of the most beautiful places in the country we have a plethora of fabulous days out for you to explore.

The house has hard floors downstairs which is ideal for well behaved pets (except the snug room which is carpeted) and carpeted throughout upstairs.

It is oozing in charm, and is warm and cozy throughout. It still boasts original oak beams and open fireplaces, as well as an Aga to warm your cockles. It is an ideal retreat to get some quality family time.

The surrounding area boasts beautiful walks and views, with access to the Oxfordshire way on your doorstep. If you search #stonesfield on Instagram you'll see what a beautiful area we live in.
