Luxury Holiday Cottages in Oxfordshire
Goodlake Barns offers light and spacious four and five star cottages arranged around an attractive courtyard in a picturesque Oxfordshire village. Our properties provide a relaxing retreat with convenient access to Oxford and the Cotswolds. The barns, varying in age but originating from a mid-19th century stable block, have been converted into modern self-catering accommodations while preserving historical features. We cater to groups of 2 to 28 guests across five cottages, each equipped with modern amenities and set within organic farmland.Our commitment to quality is reflected in guest testimonials praising cleanliness, spacious layouts, and thoughtful touches like Out of Eden bathroom products. The estate's history dates back to Thomas Mills Goodlake, whose initials remain inscribed on the original buildings. Guests benefit from proximity to National Trails, cultural attractions, and local dining options with complimentary transport services available. Our team prioritises guest satisfaction through attentive housekeeping and flexible arrangements for group bookings.
