The Corner House is a Grade II listed part-thatched Cotswold cottage in Kingham, situated on the West Oxfordshire / Gloucestershire borders and recently voted England's favourite village by Country Life magazine. The property dates from the 16th century.
The village has two pubs - one Michelin-starred - and an impressively stocked shop and post office. The world famous Daylesford farm shop and spa is a three minute drive or 20 minute walk through the fields at the back of the house.
The property is at the end of a quiet, no-through road and is decorated to high specification, with a stunning interior complemented by many traditional features. In colder weather you can curl up in front of a roaring fire and watch Sky movies, in the summer you can enjoy dining al fresco in the landscaped garden.
