The Cornflower

Sleep Wild in complete comfort in one of two luxurious, dog friendly cabins surrounded by a wild flower meadow. Wake up to stunning views of the Oxfordshire countryside, horses grazing in the paddocks and the sound of skylarks overhead. Stroll around the grass tracks on the farm, see the racehorses on the gallops or walking home after work, alternatively hook up with the public foot path that runs through the farm. This leads to Cropredy village or Claydon in the other direction. There are lovely walks along the towpath of the Oxford Canal which can be joined in Cropredy, alternatively hook up with the Jurassic way or the Battlefields Trail.

Or just stay put and relax, take in the views, soak under the stars in your hot tub or cook something delicious on the fire pit or barbecue. You may catch a glimpse of our resident hares and wild fallow deer and for any ornithologists there is plenty of bird life.

Everything has been carefully considered and beautifully designed to help our guests slow down and switch off. Both have electricity and hot water - think tiny hotel room in the wild.

Here is what to expect in your cabin:
A double ottoman bed with storage underneath; crisp cotton bed linen, feather duvets and pillows; a double sofa bed, comfy as a sofa or can be pulled out to sleep 2 more at a squeeze; stylish table lamps; en-suite shower and loo, fully equipped kitchenette with two electric hobs; a good sized fridge, a small table with tuck in stools and a wood burning stove. You will also find ordnance survey maps giving the local footpaths and bridleways, playing cards, books and a backgammon set.

Outside you will find:
A large area of decking; a wood-fired hot tub, outdoor table and chairs; a small gas barbecue; a fire pit and deck chairs. All crockery, cooking utensils, pots and pans are provided. We provide a generous starter pack of fire wood and fire lighters, extra wood can be purchased.

Food Hampers and Local Pubs
We provide a variety of food hampers for breakfast and barbecuing. All ingredients are fresh and locally sourced from the farm shop at Warmington. Eggs are from our own free range chickens. Homemade cakes are also available, all orders for hampers or cakes must be made at least three days before your visit.

Alternatively here are some suggestions of local pubs/restaurants:
The Brazenose Arms in Cropredy, this is a 20-25 minute walk via the public footpath that can be picked up on our farm. Other local pubs include The Castle at Edge Hill, The Falcon at Warmington, The George and Dragon at Chacombe, or The Bell at Ladbroke.

Being on the edge of the Cotswolds there are plenty of lovely villages and towns to visit: Stow on the Wold, Burford, Chipping Campden, Chipping Norton are a few of many. Daylesford, Jeremy Clarkson’s farm shop and Soho Farmhouse are within easy reach.

There are quite a few Historic Houses and gardens in the area: Farnborough Hall, Upton House, Cannons Ashby, Warwick Castle to name just a few.
