Little Boy Blue

Little Boy Blue: Oxfordshire

Set over three floors, this charming Georgian Grade II listed house is the ideal base from which to explore the picturesque beauty of the Cotswolds. Located in the peaceful village of Bledington, you’ll have no trouble settling into the idyllic, treacly pace of country life here, with plenty of entertainment options in and around your home. Whether you’re starting your day off with breakfast in the sunny conservatory, enjoying a barbecue in the enclosed garden or curling up by the living room’s wood-burning fire with a glass of wine at the end of the night, there’s endless fun and relaxation to be enjoyed here. Factor in the separate games room replete with board games and books, as well as the beautiful tubs on hand inviting long, luxurious soaks with a glass of bubbly after a day of exploring, and you'll be tempted to stay inside from dawn till dusk. Venture out, however, and you’ll find a world of bucolic English charm right outside your door. Both the village shop and pub are under a five-minute walk away, while Alex James' Farm – where The Big Feastival is held each year on the August bank holiday attracting a huge variety of foodie and musical talent – is a three-minute drive (or a twenty-minute walk). Kingham – chosen by Country Life as 'England's Favourite Village’ – is also five minutes by car from your door and both Chipping Norton and Stow-on-the-Wold are a ten-minute drive from your home.
