Tachbrook is a charming, beautifully furnished and decorated, luxury, Grade II-listed cottage in the thriving Cotswold town of Charlbury. The cottage sleeps 4 guests across one super king-size bedroom and one twin bedroom and has an en-suite shower room and a family bathroom. The cottage has a very well-equipped kitchen, beautiful dining room, and an elegant living room with a wood burner in an inglenook fireplace. Outside there is a delightful, private patio and garden and, unusually for Charlbury, off-street and garage parking for two cars.

Fabulous cottage, perfect for 2 couples catching up for a weekend away.
Big comfy beds, immaculate house, kitchen was really well stocked up so we could cook and eat in very comfortably.
Lots of little extras to help our stay, walking books and local information and the washing machine was used after a very muddy walk.
Thank you, a really lovely stay. Vanessa

The location of the cottage central to the village of Charlbury - easy to access local shops and the two pubs [The Bell just had a 'make over ' and having had a meal there not that impressed]. The cottage had a small driveway which was a bonus rather than trying to park in the road, which was quite narrow for passing traffic.

The inside of the cottage comfortable, kitchen small but all the appliances were of good quality. Only issue was the small size of the dish washer - which meant it had to be carefully filled and put on frequently.

Bathrooms and bedrooms excellent.

Rear garden very nice for sitting out [when we stayed the weather perfect.]

Our stay at Tachbrook was a wonderful experience. The village of Charlbury is quiet and peaceful, with lots of beautiful rolling hills. It seemed like each morning riders on horses would walk past the house. The trails were beautiful and it is well-situated for riding and walks.

Beautiful house in a lovely location. Very clean, with everything that you need. Finished to a high standard, with comfy beds, and a cot and high chair provided which were also very clean and comfy. Garden catches the sun in the evening - perfect spot for a cup of coffee or class of wine.
Housekeeper extremely helpful and got back to me straight away with every query and question I had.
Nice Deli just a short walk up the road for morning croissants and coffee, and plenty of pubs to visit nearby.
Would definitely recommend

This was the perfect welcoming cottage in a great location to explore The Cotswolds. Spotlessly clean and well thought out for short breaks or longer stays, it was stylishly furnished, but also very comfortable. Would highly recommend for couples and smaller families at any time of the year.

Tachbrook has a long history, yet has been suitably modernized. Charlbury is a small village but with sufficient services, including convenient train service to Oxford and London. It was the perfect place for us. the weather was good too!



Wonderful!!!!!

It was wonderful. We loved the inside of the house. The beautiful charming old building that was completly renovated and modernised in a wonderful way. We also loved the beautiful designed and well kept garden. The area around was great, being in the middle of the nice town of charlbury and also in the middle of the beautiful cotswolds

From the very start dealing with Bolthole Retreats we were very impressed. From the answering an initial query in great detail and advising us on how to get best value from our stay with them, through additional support for travel cot and highchair needs before arrival, we were super happy.
On arrival at Tachbrook it did not disappoint. The property is quite frankly stunning with a beautifully maintained front garden and a short gravel drive that will fit a good sized vehicle. Inside the level of quality continues. The downstairs living spaces are well appointed and styled in a country cottage manner as you would want in a property like this and very comfortable. The kitchen is well set out and has all the basic cooking utensils you would need, even a small hand blender and scales should the desire to bake a cake be overwhelming.
The upstairs follows suit with two lovely bedrooms a double and a twin single as well as two bathrooms with underfloor heating.
To the rear is a lovely little garden with seating and dining areas and a small lawn.
Charlbury is a stunning little town/village and the CO-OP is well stocked with everything you would need for a few days away. The Bull is a charming pub with very friendly and helpful staff as well as great food and beers and is well worth a visit.

We would 100% recommend the property to friends and family and in fact already have.

Tachbrook is in a ideal position to tour the Cotswolds area. The house is large enough for four adults to live comfortably and is very clean and tidy with all mod cons. Sits in a nice village with picturesque church opposite and a pub 50 metres away. Would stay again.

Tachbrook is a charming old Cotswold stone cottage in the heart of Charlbury.The owners have thought of everything to make their guests comfortable- it is tastefully decorated throughout, very well-equipped and immaculately presented. Great location in the heart of the Cotswolds. The log burner made it perfect for a Winter Retreat.

An extremely comfortable and cosy house to stay in which was very clean and well organised. It had a well landscaped garden and patio area which would be lovely in summer to sit out in.The house was very well well equipped. The only thing we could not find, which we would have liked, was a small milk jug. This was obviously not an essential item but may be worth putting on the wish list (unless we just could not find it!) We would definitely book again.

The cottage has been renovated in a most appropriate and quality manner. All the furniture, appliances, equipment etc etc are of a very high quality and ensure a comfortable stay. The sun trap in the corner of the garden is a bonus on a bright but chilly autumn day!

A great base for travelling around and if you are after a tranquil break it is absolutely spot on. The Town (if you can call it that) is so friendly and the little Deli is really welcoming. We have now stayed in the cottage on two occasions and would be more than happy to return.

Four of us spent a week in this lovely cottage. We were impressed with the cottage and walled garden and with the quality of the fittings and furniture. Everything we needed was there including a good supply of china, glass and cookware. We found the beds very comfortable and the village was quiet so there was no problem sleeping.
Charlbury is a good location. There is a Co-op supermarket which has most of what you will need. It is less busy than many other Cotswold villages yet is in easy reach of lovely places to visit. You do need a car but the train station is only five minutes walk from the house and we used that to take a trip to Oxford. There are some lovely walks in the area and there was good information provided in the house to help you with these and with other aspects of your stay.
All in all, we had a memorable week away and recommend Tachbrook for a comfortable stay.

An excellent property for our stay. Our only adverse comment relates to yhe cleaning. Excellent up stairs but the carpet in the lounge had crumbs and bits on it, whilst in the dinning room there crumbs on all the chairs around the table. There was a bra left behind one of the cushions on the chairs in the bay window.

We had the advantage of already knowing Charlbury which is a charming place, not touristy, villagers all friendly and chatty. Little Deli is great for bits and pieces and coffee and cake. Co-op about 8 mins walk away. We visited several little nearby places all of which were delightful. We would love to come again and would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to others. It is a little gem. If you want to go to places like Oxford the train station is a little walk away and there are also buses. We hope to be able to visit again in the future.
