The Clock Tower | Countryside Barn

The Clock Tower is a beautifully converted barn nestled in the heart of the Oxfordshire countryside, just 6 miles from Henley-on-Thames. With its original oak beams, high ceilings, and stylish design, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom property offers a perfect blend of charm and modern comfort. Ideal for a relaxing getaway, it accommodates up to 4 guests in two large double bedrooms, each featuring luxurious furnishings and stunning countryside views.

The private, self-contained barn is set within a secluded courtyard on a former farm, offering a peaceful retreat with a touch of history. The barn retains its traditional charm, with brick and flint walls and exposed beams, while incorporating modern touches like a contemporary kitchen with oak sideboards, a butler’s sink, and top-of-the-line appliances.

The spacious living area features a comfortable leather sofa, smart TV, and sound system, making it an inviting space to relax. A collection of interesting paintings and books adds to the character of the property. The master bedroom, with its soaring ceilings, offers a restful space with soft hues and ample storage. The recently renovated en-suite bathroom features a luxurious freestanding bath, shower, and marble vanity unit, creating a perfect setting for a tranquil soak.

The second bedroom, with a king-sized bed and designer headboard, is equally inviting, offering peaceful surroundings and modern décor. Both bedrooms enjoy views over the courtyard, where lavender and jasmine bloom just outside the windows. The second bathroom, also newly renovated, features a large shower and marble flooring.

The private courtyard patio is the ideal spot to enjoy the sunset, surrounded by lovely plants and herbs, perfect for summer evenings with friends or family. Guests also have access to an indoor heated pool, available daily from 2 pm to 6 pm, with the option for private use during a designated 2-hour window. For those seeking more activity, there are aqua aerobics classes available a few days each week.

Originally part of the Phillimore Estate and once home to a pedigree herd of Aberdeen Angus cattle, the farm was converted into contemporary living spaces in the 1990s. Now surrounded by the natural beauty of Wyfold, a charming Chiltern village, The Clock Tower is close to popular local amenities, including shops, gastro pubs, and a tennis club. For those seeking more, the historic town of Henley-on-Thames is just a short drive away, offering a range of restaurants, shops, and cultural attractions.

With scenic countryside walks, nearby golf courses, and horse riding available, The Clock Tower offers an ideal base for exploring this beautiful region. Conveniently located, with Henley-on-Thames and Reading stations only a short drive away, you can easily reach London in under 30 minutes via train or visit Oxford, Heathrow, and Central London within an hour.

A dog-friendly property, The Clock Tower allows one dog with prior approval, provided guests ensure the property is left clean and tidy. Nearby walking routes and a selection of great pubs further enhance this countryside retreat.
