10.0“Idyllic would stay again”
+We loved everything about it the location , the rooms , the peaceful view , the hosts , the facilities. The beds were really comfortable, the place was spotless and the hosts popped over to say hello when we arrived. The admin by short lets space was excellent and the property is within 5 minutes walk to back entrance to Blenheim palace grounds and 2 minutes walk to the local church where the Churchill family are buried . Lots of walks out to local countryside and buses go through Blandon to Oxford, Witney and surrounding areas. Local community run pub is a couple of minutes walk . There is no village shop but plenty of supermarkets in Witney and en route to the property so no issue at all .
−Nothing - just note there’s no dishwasher which wasn’t a problem just hadn’t realised .

8.0“Very disappointing. No wi fi”
+Superb location. Clean comfortable and well equipped cottage. But only a very weak WiFi available during our stay. Staff tried to take action but no satisfactory connection gained. This lead to extra expense for us as we were unable to pre book tickets to attractions and had to therefore pay higher prices at the gate. Also real inconvenience for messaging and no picking up of emails or searching websites etc
−As above

10.0“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, beautiful area and cottage”
+Beautiful quiet location Tastefully decorated Kind hosts Close proximity to Blenheim Estate Rural feel , borders on farm land Suggest a walking map link to community path at Blenheim
−Suggest an option of flat sheets and blankets, as my husband doesn’t do well with duvets and I am sure many people find them too hot in summer.

10.0“Perfect location for a visit to Blenheim Palace.”
+Toasty warm and cosy after days out at Blenheim Palace and Oxford. Great bus service to Witney, Woodstock and Oxford with fares only £2!

10.0“Ticked every box, thank you 🙏”
+It felt like being at home, it was cosy and had a lovely feel about it. It was also divine to walk through the house with heated floors and the beds were like sleeping on clouds.
−Tom and Jane, the owners were also delightful and so very kindly gave us some after eight dinner mints…. Of course I ate far too many so with Tom’s directions I went for a stunning run loop around the lakes of Blenheim Palace to run off a few calories so I could eat some more 😂

8.0“Lovely. Would return. Warm greeting and neighbours.”
+Great location, good access to Blenheim. Fabulous bathroom.
−The sound quality of the tv was poor. Struggled to hear it. Wasn’t sure if it was the acoustics or tv itself. Maybe a thicker rug could help.

10.0“Exceptional”
+Brilliant little cottage, so warm and comfortable! Great location too being able to walk into the grounds of the Blenheim estate was amazing. It’s also close to Hanborough station for direct trains to London and a short stroll to the very friendly village pub.

10.0“Excellent.👌👌❤️”
+The place was lovely to walk into as it felt homely and peaceful. The setting was very restful. It was lovely to hear the birds singing and feel you were in the countryside without being isolated. The hosts Tom and Jane were very helpful if we had any questions. Hope to return.
