The cottage
Your own cottage in a peaceful village
Lower Farm Cottage is a characterful one-bedroom cottage on Thame Road in Piddington, a small village on the Oxfordshire–Buckinghamshire border. Inside you’ll find exposed beams, a cosy sitting room with a fireplace, a dining table by the window and a fully equipped kitchen.
Upstairs there’s a double bed and a separate single, so it suits couples, friends, or a small family. The bathroom has both a bath and a shower.
Outside, the wide lawn and picnic area look out towards the fields. Deer are often seen in the garden early in the morning and in the evening.
Mind your head: like many old cottages, there are low beams and doorways.

A few words from recent guests.
“We woke up to a deer in the garden, which was such a wonderful surprise and made our stay feel extra special. The cottage was very comfortable, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a relaxing break.”
“The wide, open garden was perfect for our daughter… The cottage is super cosy and had everything we needed and more. Bed and furniture are incredibly comfy, eating our meals outside on the lawn, taking short walks to explore local footpaths.”
“This place is everything you look for in a holiday cottage. A charming old cottage, traditionally furnished, clean and very well equipped. Situated in a little village it is a haven of peace and tranquility. Just watch out for the low beams and doors!”
“Orathai’s postcard perfect cottage was simply stunning. From the moment I entered the property, to the day I left, I felt like I was staying in a home from home… Having a circular walk from the doorstep is a particular bonus for me personally.”
“Thank you so much for another lovely stay in this beautiful cottage. It is even more lovely in the summer than our delightful stay here at Christmas.”
“The house was sparkling clean. We would like to thank the hosts separately for the fact that the cottage was warm and heated for our arrival on a cool autumn evening. The cottage is super cozy, comfortable and charming!”
