The Dairy | Countryside Barn

The Dairy offers a stylish, cosy retreat full of charm, nestled in the heart of Oxfordshire's countryside, just a short distance from Henley-on-Thames and the Chilterns. This private barn conversion, once part of the renowned Phillimore Estate, provides the perfect getaway for up to four guests. It combines the elegance of a five-star country hotel annexe with the tranquil atmosphere of a rural escape. Whether for a weekend or a longer stay, it's ideal for those seeking relaxation or attending events such as the Henley Regatta or Festival.

The space itself is a self-contained two-bedroom barn with stunning views over the courtyard, where lavender and jasmine frame the windows. The living room, complete with comfortable sofas, a large smart TV, and a sound system, creates a welcoming atmosphere. The fully equipped kitchen, featuring oak sideboards, a butler’s sink, and modern appliances, is ideal for preparing meals at home. Characterful décor, with interesting paintings and books, ensures there is always something to enjoy indoors.

The master bedroom boasts a luxurious four-poster bed adorned with soft duvets and pillows in soothing green tones. The second bedroom, large and peaceful, offers an emperor-sized bed with a Scottish flair featuring tartan, fur throws, and silk curtains.

Outside, a private courtyard patio provides a perfect space to watch the sunset, surrounded by climbing roses, plants, and herbs. The 70-foot indoor swimming pool, located within the farm’s buildings, is available for exclusive use between 2 pm and 6 pm.

The Dairy retains much of its historical charm, with exposed beams and brick-and-flint walls from its time as a working farm. It is set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering spectacular countryside views and scenic walks. Nearby, the village of Wyfold offers a shop, tennis club, and several popular gastro pubs. Henley-on-Thames, just six miles away, offers a wider selection of shops, restaurants, and cultural experiences.

With the option to bring one dog (with conditions), The Dairy is a peaceful and secluded escape, ideal for those wanting to immerse themselves in nature while still being within easy reach of Henley and beyond.
