Buff Lodge - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Tackley is a thriving place of traditional stone cottages and a community-led village shop which provides all manner of lovely things. Buff Lodge sits in a quiet courtyard behind one of these lovely village houses and offers a wonderful base from which to explore.

Step inside and you'll find a comfortable escape for four guests. The open-plan design makes for sociable living, with a fully equipped kitchen, dining area and generous living room on the ground floor. Double doors lead out to a private, enclosed terrace where you can enjoy meals in the fresh air or simply relax with a drink and a good book. There is a super-king bedroom on the ground floor, as well as a bathroom whilst the second king-size bedroom is on the first floor, along with an en-suite shower room. This lovely room boasts high ceilings and exposed beams and is a cosy and welcoming space.

The enclosed terrace is an added bonus, and the screened trellis ensures this is a sunny and private space where you can relax after a day of exploring. There is private parking for two cars in the courtyard.

From the living room, there are doors out to the terrace.

Bedroom One:
This ground floor bedroom has a super-king size bed, which can be arranged as twin beds if preferred. With a colour scheme of cream and grey, this room has a very peaceful feel. There is plenty of storage space including a wardrobe and chest of drawers, and bedside tables with reading lamps are placed on either side of the bed. Perfect for a little bedtime reading. There is natural light from two windows.

Perfect relaxation!
We arrived and immediately felt relaxed. We wandered to the local shop for supplies. Then we had a few lovely days exploring Woodstock and Roucham gardens.
