Manor Cottage is a handsome detached retreat set in the peaceful village of Black Bourton near Carterton, offering a generous base for families or groups looking to settle into the slower pace of rural Oxfordshire.
It’s the kind of place where you immediately feel you’ve got room to breathe, while still being perfectly placed for days out across the Cotswolds and into the historic heart of Oxford.
Step inside to a bright and spacious kitchen/diner, fully equipped for proper home cooking—whether you’re preparing a hearty family roast or a quick breakfast before exploring the area.
The cosy sitting room, complete with a welcoming woodburning stove, is the ideal spot to unwind after a day of adventures.
Across the four bedrooms, there’s plenty of flexibility for mixed groups.
Two of the king‑size bedrooms feature modern en‑suite bathrooms with a shower and sink basin, while the additional double and well‑appointed twin bedrooms offer flexible sleeping options for families and groups.
The family bathroom, complete with both bath and walk-in shower, rounds off the interior.
Outside, the private patio is spot-on for an unhurried breakfast, late-afternoon drinks or simply enjoying a bit of peace before the next outing.
With off-road parking, WiFi and oil central heating, Manor Cottage caters for both the practical and the pleasant without fuss.
The surrounding area offers as much charm as the cottage itself.
Bibury, with its famous Arlington Row, is easily reached and makes a postcard-perfect stop.
Bourton-on-the-Water is another favourite, known for its low bridges, gentle riverside paths and plenty of spots to mooch about.
For something livelier, Oxford is within easy reach, offering its remarkable architecture, museums, bookshops and a dining scene that spans everything from centuries-old pubs to cutting-edge cafés.
Whether your break revolves around good company, long walks or dipping into the region’s history, Manor Cottage sets you up perfectly for a memorable stay in Oxfordshire and the wider Cotswolds.
