  • "We had a truly amazing stay at Dove House."

    We stayed there with our 2 children, my sister and her family and my mum. It’s a huge property with a lovely big garden, which the kids loved playing cricket in. The house was extremely clean and beautifully decorated. It was great that they provided all the basics, like washing powder, cleaning products, bin liners, etc, which places so often don’t and is frustrating having to bring them. The children particularly loved the playroom, which was also great as we didn’t need to bring lots of their toys from home. The owner was extremely helpful via email and always replied quickly. She ensured we had everything we needed. She provided lots of helpful info on things to do/places to eat. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it.

  • "We had an excellent stay at Dove House Farm when we visited the property over the New Year period for 9 of us."

    We had a warm welcome on arrival and we very much appreciated the spaciousness of the property. As we had three young children with us, the play room was a particular bonus and much enjoyed. There were many toys to play with and children's books to read. The private garden was also a great place for them to chase around and the boys enjoyed climbing on the quadro provided in the garden. For the adults, the superb coffee machine was a bonus and much appreciated. The particularly well equipped laundry room was a useful asset and all of the bedrooms were spacious. The initial cloakroom/dog space was ideal for leaving boots and keeping the rest of the house clean. The two decorated Christmas trees and Christmas lights outside all added to the festiveness of the family occasion. We can highly recommend Dove House Farm as a place to visit. Located nearby is a Park and Ride into Oxford which has ample parking.

  • "Our stay was for a family gathering, including our 3 children, Grandchildren and our dog."

    The house is very spacious and very well presented; with great garden space. The setting is idyllic with incredible views. Having a dedicated play room, boot room and laundry area makes for a good stay. We cooked extensively and all the catering facilities were there, with the coffee machine much enjoyed. Highly recommended for large family gatherings, and the host even unpacked our shopping delivery for us as they were 30 minutes early!

  • "We had a fantastic family stay at Dove House Farm."

    The property was exactly as the photos. As a large family of 6 adults, 2 children and 1 dog the property was perfect for us. The garden was super. If you have young children the property has a wonderfully equipped playroom and plenty of toys, books and games. There is everything you need for children and dogs. Very thoughtful. The owners were on hand if we needed anything throughout our stay. I would highly recommend this property if you want to escape the city and want peace in lovely surroundings.

  • "We had the most incredible stay at Dove Farm."

    The house was a beautiful, calm space. The interior is thoughtfully constructed and the kitchen is perfect for groups dinners. Our daughter loved the playroom and the wonderful selection of books. She also enjoyed exploring the large garden. It was the perfect place to spend a weekend with family. Everyone said the same thing when they entered the house - wow. We would definitely book again.

    Thank you for coming to stay- we are so glad you enjoyed your family birthday and graduation in style! We look forward to welcoming you again one day. Property Owner

The property

Wheatley 2.6 miles.

Nestled amidst Oxfordhsire’s breath-taking countryside in the village of Cuddesdon near Wheatley is the charming Dove House Farm.

This beautiful, dog-friendly, farmhouse has been thoughtfully renovated with contemporary and stylish decor that seamlessly melds with original features such as period flooring, ornate fireplaces and high ceilings.

It also boasts an enclosed garden, fabulous countryside views from the five well-appointed bedrooms and an idyllic setting near both the Chiltern Hills and Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural and the thriving city of Oxford; the perfect choice for families or friends looking for a getaway.

Cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and step straight into the sitting room where you can unwind in front of the crackling woodburning stove or locate the playroom and supervise the children as they burn off the last of their energy.

Later, heading into the open-plan living space to find a contemporary, fully-equipped kitchen where you can rustle up hearty meals for the whole family.

When the night ends, travel to the first floor to wash off the day in the shower room or bathroom before sloping off to sleep in one of five bedrooms: there is two super-king-size, two kings and a nursery with a child's bed and cot.

If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic dwelling, make your way into the heart of Wheatley where you can stock up on all of your essentials at the store or enjoy a well-earned break from the kitchen at The Sun Pub or The King and Queen.

There are a whole host of attractions in the nearby city of Oxford; immerse yourself in the past at Oxford Castle and Prison, the Ashmolean Museum or the Museum of Natural History, amble through the breath-taking Botanic Gardens or the Harcourt Arboretum or for those looking for something spooky join the Oxford Ghost Tours!

The nearby Cotswold AONB and Chiltern Hills AONB provide an array of walking, cycling and hiking routes for those keen to experience the beauty of the English countryside.

Experience all this and more at Dove House Farm.

This Oxfordshire town sits in between the Chiltern Hills AONB and The Cotswolds. In terms of amenities, it is centred by a well-stocked High Street with shops, pubs and eateries to make the most of. It also has an 18th century church and a windmill dating from the same century. Close by is the magnificent city of Oxford, dominated by majestic architecture and with a multitude of high-quality shops, bars and restaurants - a fantastic day trip. The busy town of Aylsebury is also close by, offering the Waterside Theatre, the 15th century King's Head coaching inn and the Buckinghamshire County Museum.
