Romantic & Secluded Cottage. Beautiful Walks & Fantastic Pub

Churchyard cottage is uniquely situated at the convergence of the county borders of Oxfordshire, Wiltshire and Berkshire in the Vale of the White Horse. The cottage is privately set at the top of a very quiet street next to the impressive St Mary the Virgin Church located in the charming village of Ashbury.

It is the ultimate romantic (couples) getaway with direct access to some of the most beautiful walks on the famous historic Ridgeway.
Making your stay ideal for scenic country strolls to heritage sites and tantalising your taste buds with local produce at neighbouring gastro pubs. And if you are bringing your 4-legged friend(s) it’s a dog’s paradise!

The cottage is set within easy walking or travelling distance to some of the country’s most popular heritage sights and attractions – such as White Horse Hill, Wayland’s Smithy, Stone Henge, Roman Baths in Bath, The Cotswold’s, the City of Oxford and more…

Its privacy, seclusion and superb location are so necessary for the perfect romantic break and are ideally offset by the closeness of facilities in and around the village of Ashbury. Fantastic Public House – The Rose & Crown is just a stone’s throw away from the cottage and has been reviewed highly by many of our previous guests. Sleeps 2.

The property has Free WIFI.

Lovely stay in Ashbury
What a lovely cottage just up the road from the Rose and Crown pub. The cottage was spotless, had everything we needed and was very peaceful with a delightful small front garden in front of the church. Our two dogs enjoyed the walk up past the church and onto the Ridgeway and we would recommend the Rose & Crown, White Horse and the Royal Oak. Would highly recommend this cottage for a relaxing stay.

Five stars again!! A wonderful second stay!
This cottage really is very special indeed. So many lovely touches too with milk and butter waiting in the fridge. There are so many gorgeous features and we will most definitely be counting the days until we can return for a third time. Thank you!

Wonderful escape!
We LOVED everything about this quaint cottage. Its location was PERFECT to trekking trails! We hiked and ended up top of the hill where people were paragliding. The cottage itself is wonderful.. wood burner, romantic tub. Nothing but wonderful things to say about the cottage, the English village and pubs and owner. Thank you for a wonderful holiday!
