About the location

MILTON-UNDER-WYCHWOOD

Burford 4 miles; Chipping Norton 7 miles.

Milton-Under-Wychwood is a village and civil parish in West Oxfordshire. The village has one pub called The Hare which is a gastropub. Wychwood public library is located in a converted shop. Local attractions are Foxholes Nature Reserve, Wychwood Wild Garden park and for those interested in outdoor activities The Wychwood Golf Club, all within a few miles of the village. For the art enthusiasts look to Tosley Museum housed in the early Tudor market building, famous for its doll’s houses and large photographic collections. Also nearby is the St Nicholas Church, which is the resting place of the designer of the Forth Rail Bridge, Sir Benjamin Baker. Little has survived of the Norman church except its ornate north doorway. Milton-Under-Wychwood is 4 miles north of Burford and 7 miles south of Chipping Norton.

Note: For the comfort of future guests, we ask that dogs remain downstairs, stay off the furniture and that no trace of a dog remains after your departure.

Note: An initial basket of logs is provided for the woodburning stove between October and March and further log supplies can be purchased locally - please note that the logs in the snug are decorative and cannot be used for the woodburning stove.

Note: The super-king-size is zip/link and can be twin on request.

Note: Both staircases are open on one side, so young children will need to be supervised.

Note: This is an old property laid out over multiple floors with steep and open-sided staircases, which could pose difficulty to guests with limited mobility.

Note: High Ridge does not accept hen, stag or similar parties; if you would like to enquire as part of a same sex group, please contact us.
