Japonica - Minster Lovell

On the edge of the Cotswolds, Japonica is a charming cottage ready to welcome your friends and family for a peaceful retreat. Blenheim Palace, Oxford and the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens are very close by and you're just a short walk from Jeremy Clarkson's pub The Farmer's Dog.

This grade II listed historic charterville cottage dates back to the 1800s and is full of charming details. Beautiful fireplaces, flagstone flooring, exposed stone walls and wooden beams show what life would have been like. Set across the ground floor the open plan living area is spacious and full of light with a lovely sage green kitchen, breakfast bar and comfortable sitting area. The formal dining room gives you space to eat homecooked meals together and you can open the stable doors out to the external dining terrace. Three bedrooms each have a peaceful finish and there are two bathrooms, including an en-suite in the master bedroom.

In the garden a wonderful dining area is tucked away providing a secluded space to host group dinners. Alongside is a lawned garden and there is space for three cars to park on the driveway.

Ground Floor

Open Plan Kitchen/Living Room
This fabulous space is the heart of the home, where you will spend time cooking meals together, lingering over drinks and long chats and having quick breakfasts before heading out for the day. At one end, the kitchen has an oven and hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and coffee machine. A breakfast bar seats 4 and is perfect for less formal meals. Open the French doors to the garden so you have a wonderful view while preparing meals.
The sitting area includes two three-seater sofas and a smart TV so you can put your feet up and relax. Sitting beside exposed stone with old fireplaces, a woodburning stove, and a flagstone floor you are immersed in the atmosphere of this charming Cotswold cottage.

Dining Room
Set the table so you can all eat together and celebrate special occasions. The table can be extended for extra serving space if you've planned a feast. At the end of this room is a sofa, a secret hideaway if you just want a moment to yourself to get lost in a good book. You will also find the washing machine and tumble dryer tucked away here.

Bedroom Three
An old sliding stable door opens into bedroom three which is ideal for younger guests or two friends sharing. The bunk beds sit perpendicular to each other and there are two chests of drawers.

Bathroom
Shared between bedrooms two and three, the bathroom has a bath with a hand-held shower, WC and basin.

Bedroom Two
The double bed sits between two bedside tables with lamps, giving you somewhere to have your morning cup of coffee in bed.

Bedroom One
The master bedroom is at the end of the house giving guests staying here extra privacy. With a king-size bed, chest of drawers, wardrobe and bedside tables you will feel at home.

En-Suite
An added bonus, the en-suite has a shower, WC and basin.

Outside

Spend time outside in the secluded garden dining al fresco beneath bright Cotswold skies. A table seating six is tucked behind the cottage away from view while the lawn stretches away to one side. Start a morning stroll here and continue through the village to the old hall and dovecote, stopping off at the Old Swan for a drink.
