Timber Lodge - sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

The thriving village of Tackley lies in the Cherwell Valley and is the perfect base for a countryside escape. Timber Lodge is one of two lovely properties set in a peaceful courtyard in the heart of the village. The bus stop to Oxford is just outside and there's a railway line to Oxford and Bicester Village within walking distance.

Designed to make the most of the space available, Timber Lodge has a spacious open-plan living ground floor with a retro feel. A large sofa ensures plenty of comfy seating, there's a contemporary marble dining table and a fully equipped kitchen with everything needed for a self-catering stay. There's also a ground-floor cloakroom. Beyond two sets of double doors is a private terrace where you can enjoy alfresco meals or drinks in the sunshine. The first floor encompasses the super-king size bedroom, where you'll find oodles of space to relax and unwind, along with a well-appointed en-suite shower room.

The private terrace means you can relax in the fresh air or enjoy a drink as the sun goes down. There are two private parking spaces in the courtyard.



Ground Floor

Open Plan Living/Dining/Kitchen:
A stable front door leads into the light and airy, open-plan living area. This generously proportioned space encompasses a living area with a large sofa and footstool, which sits in front of a large Smart TV. There is a marble dining table to seat four and in the kitchen area you will find a full oven and hob, microwave, fridge-freezer, and dishwasher. Two sets of double doors ensure this room is filled with light.

Cloakroom:
This useful room has a toilet and hand basin, it also houses the dishwasher.

First Floor

Bedroom:
Covering the whole of the top floor, this super-king size bedroom has an abundance of space. The bed can be set up as twins on request, there is under eaves hanging space, two chests of drawers and bedside tables with reading lamps. With three Velux windows and a colour scheme of pale grey and cream, this room has a delightfully calming feel.

En-suite:
The en-suite bathroom features a shower cubicle with a step-in shower, a vanity with a hand basin and storage beneath, a mirror with a light and shaver point and a toilet.

Outside

Timber Lodge is located in a courtyard with its own private terrace and parking area. Two sets of double doors lead from the living/kitchen area onto the terrace where you'll find a four-seater table and chairs and a sun parasol.

Lovely stay
We had a lovely weekend staying here. Everything was so clean and tidy. The location is perfect. Lisa was an amazing host who provided so much information to us. It was perfect! We’d definitely come back again.

Fabulous
We had a lovely stay at the lodge. A fantastic big bed and lovely spacious rooms with plenty of room for a little one to crawl around. The host Lisa couldn’t do enough for us and was absolutely brilliant and providing recommendations on where to visit locally. This is one of the premier 1 bedroom properties we have stayed in and we look forward to staying again.

Weekend stay for a birthday and Mother’s Day
A few years ago my son and his mother came to stay from Norway for Christmas as my mum and sister live in the village but don’t have enough room for two extra visitors. They stayed in the adjacent property, Buffs Lodge, which was ideal as it has two bedrooms. This time my son and his girlfriend came for my mum’s 92nd birthday on the Saturday and Mother’s Day on the Sunday. I was disappointed to find that Buff’s Lodge was already booked and only Timber Lodge was available, but as it turned out it was just as good or maybe better for a couple as the one-bedroom property is absolutely perfect for a couple, my son asked me to write a great review as it was such a great weekend for them. The owner always leaves milk and essentials and lives next door and is very approachable if needed but is never intrusive. Both properties are like a home from home and I don’t want to recommend them too highly in case they get booked up next time I want to stay there, but in reality I can’t recommend them highly enough! Wonderful place to stay!

This is definitely a good one
This property is well equipped, it's peaceful, it's comfortable, Lisa, the owner is very friendly and helpful, it's very well located, it's fresh and, and, and... You have a bus that leaves every hour to and from Oxford (a 40 minute ride) or if you prefer the train, there's a station within a 10 minute walk and this takes only 9 minutes to the centre of Oxford, although these are every 2 hours and you need to buy your ticket online. The Cotswolds are a short drive away and there are many interesting places even closer. Country walks are outside the door. I could go on but let's just say this was perfect for us.

Excellent accommodation
Everything you could need for a very pleasant few days away. Convenient for frequent bus service (the stop is literally yards away) and trains. Possibly the biggest bed we have ever seen! Lisa was extremely pleasant and accommodating and full of local knowledge.

A fabulous place for a break away
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Timber Lodge. It was very well appointed and spotlessly clean. We will definitely be returning. Thank you Lisa.

Very pleasant stay
We had a very enjoyable stay with owner close by to answer any questions. Very comfortable accommodation and handy for Oxford, Blenheim and other tourist attractions, especially if you have a car. We would certainly stay there again if we were in the area.
