A beautiful property located minutes away from the centre of Chipping Norton

Built on the site of the former Waggon & Horses Pub from Cotswold stone, Elba House provides high quality accommodation for families, friends, and their four legged companions, to explore all the Cotswolds and West Oxfordshire has to offer.

Chipping Norton is an attractive and superbly situated small historic market town on the edge of the renowned Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It has numerous amenities including supermarkets, pubs, restaurants, coffee shops, park and can even boast its own lido and theatre.

We are 8 miles from Soho Farmhouse, 10 miles from Woodstock and the majestic Blenheim Palace (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) , 19 miles from Bicester Village, and only 22 miles from the historic centres of Oxford and Stratford-Upon-Avon (both can be reached by bus). It is also a great location for Blenheim Park, Great Tew Park and Cornbury Park events. We are only a short drive from Kingham and Charlbury GWR train stations and numerous stations on the Chiltern Line.

Elba House has generous and flexible bedroom accommodation, a courtyard garden with southerly aspect, 2 private parking spaces and is a very short walk away from Chipping Norton town centre.

Rare for the Cotswolds, Elba House gives you loads of space in the bedrooms, so feel free to swing as many cats as you please (not literally - of course). The master and second bedroom both have king sized beds - no short straws for couples staying together. There is an additional sofa bed in the second bedroom if required.The third bedroom has a full single sized bed.

All beds have the highly rated Silentnight Studio Medium memory foam mattress, microfibre duvets and luxury bed linen.

The second floor ensuite has a shower and separate bath. The first floor bathroom has a bath and over bath shower.

The kitchen has all the cooking facilities you would expect. We have:

- Gas hob and electric cooker
- Microwave
- Dishwasher
- Washer/Dryer
- Fridge & Freezer
- Coffee Machine

The living room is a very comfortable space to socialise with a log burning stove. It also has:

- A Smart TV
- Blu Ray Player & Range of DVDs
- DAB Radio, CD Player & Bluetooth Speaker .

If you need some 'me' time, there is 'music room' with record player and the third bedroom has another T.V. and DVD Player.

We are happy to accept one mutt of most (smaller) varieties on the ground floor of Elba House only, provided they are well behaved and are not left alone.

Please note that the property is on a hill, has three storeys and there are steps up to the rear door. Chipping Norton is also plonked right on one of those famous Cotswold 'rolling hills'. If you have mobility issues please do contact us with any questions you have prior to booking.

We do not currently accept cats due to the increased allergy risk for future guests. We do take dogs as they are deemed to be a lower allergy risk and we have dogs of our own. Please bear this in mind if someone in your party is allergic to pets.

A wonderful stay in Chipping Norton
Four of us stayed at this lovely cottage for 4 nights and loved it. Perfectly positioned for exploring the Cotswolds. The cottage is very comfortable - cosy, beautifully decorated and thoughtfully appointed, very clean with comfortable beds and a well equipped kitchen. Vicky was very easy to communicate with, prompt and friendly with her response to any questions. There was even a bottle of champagne and other goodies to welcome us. We didn’t want to leave!

A wonderful stay in a comfy well located and well equipped property.
We stayed at Elba House for the weekend whilst visiting Chipping Norton for a wedding. The house was easy to access, with sufficient parking and immaculately kept. It had a very cosy feel and there was plenty of room for our little one to play. Nothing was too much trouble for Vicky and she was on hand if we needed anything both before we arrived and during our stay. If you have little people within your party, she can accommodate any extra requirements you may have like a cot or stair gates. What made the stay even more lovely was the welcome comforts she had provided on our arrival. I would stay here again :)

The perfect base to return to and relax
We had a great stay at Elba House and it provided us with the perfect base whilst we were visiting the area to be guests at a wedding. The house was so comfortable, clean and in a great location - the wood burner was wonderful to snuggle up to on a winter wonderland weekend when everything outside stayed frozen. Thank you Vicky for your quick responses and for being so accommodating. A great stay and we will happily repeat our stay should we be in the area again.

Spacious and clean house in a beautiful village
Loved the space that this 3 story house provided us! Just a short walk to the centre of town and not far from all the other picturesque villages in the Cotswolds.

Well Equipped House in Cotswold
This is perhaps the best equipped house we have ever stayed in with VRBO. The house itself was everything it was advertised to be and perhaps the best feature was the wealth of information provided on the house and the surrounding area. The kitchen was very well equipped with the only drawback being a small eating area.
