The Gillets Cottage, Charney Bassett, Wantage, Oxfordshire
Originally a pair of cottages within the grounds of Charney Manor, the property has been thoughtfully converted into a single, spacious holiday home while retaining its charm and character. Separate from the main manor, it offers guests a private and relaxing environment with all the comforts needed for a memorable stay.
Inside, the cottage features a spacious sitting room, perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing, and a large dining room for enjoying shared meals. The adjoining kitchen is fully equipped with modern conveniences, including a washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, and a dedicated coffee area. A WC is also located on the ground floor for added convenience.
The accommodation comprises five bedrooms, including two singles and two twins, with a twin room located on the ground floor. The two upstairs rooms can be converted into doubles upon request, providing flexible options for guests. Families are well catered for, with a travel cot, high chair, and stair gates available.
Outside, a furnished patio area offers a pleasant spot to relax with views across the sheep paddock and meadows beyond. It is the perfect place to enjoy a quiet afternoon or evening in the fresh country air.
The surrounding area is rich in scenic walking routes, making it ideal for those who enjoy exploring the countryside. A short stroll from the cottage leads to The Chequers Inn, a welcoming village pub. Nearby attractions include the Uffington White Horse, William Morris’s Kelmscott Manor, and the market towns of Wantage and Abingdon.
With its peaceful setting, comfortable accommodation, and easy access to both local and regional highlights, The Gillets Cottage provides an inviting and relaxing retreat for anyone looking to experience the charm of Oxfordshire.
