Sleepy Leopard

Sleepy Leopard: Oxfordshire

If you're after countryside tranquillity but don't want to compromise on modern style and comfort, this brilliant barn conversion makes for a memorable Cotswold escape. The river Thames runs along the end of the garden, and there’s even a private jetty, so you can swim or paddleboard in the river. With six bedrooms – each with its own en-suite – this huge home can accommodate your whole extended family for that annual family reunion or special celebration, and you can even bring your furry friends along. We love how well-equipped this home is when it comes to keeping the whole group together and entertained – from the large rustic trestle table to the snug with beanbags, where you can catch up on your favourite shows or watch classic movies. Packing your walking shoes is a given, but don't forget your swimming trunks too, if you are planning to make use of the steamy hot tub for a stargazing session. Visit the historic city of academia, full of dramatic spires and striking architecture – Oxford's only a thirty-minute drive from your crowd-pleasing pad.
