 | The Oast Barn became a house in its own right in the 1950's. Previously it was the grooms' cottages, a coach house and stables which was part of a large house and estate known as The Oast House which was owned by the Doulton (pottery) family. Up until the eighteenth century part of it was a public house called 'The Hope and Despair' and some of the roof struts are obviously Elizabethan. |

| The house is set side on to the road with its own gated car parkingand just over an acre of grounds down to a river which feeds into the Thames. Ducks, swans, and a heron are regularly to be seen and in summer house martins nest on the eaves of the house.Organic fruits and vegetables are grown in the grounds some of which are used for breakfast in summer. A range of organic home made preserves are provided for breakfast. |  |


 | One double bedroom with private bathroom is offered. As an alternative a king-size bedded room plus single room maybe available as a twin or for 3 family members. All guest rooms are reached by a separate staircase to the remainder of the house. |


All rooms have comfortable beds with firm mattresses, colour televisions, central heating or electric fans in Summer and hairdryers. Breakfast is served in a beamed 30' room with open fireplace or when warm enough on our large patio overlooking the grounds and river.
There are two public houses serving excellent meals within a five minute walk of the house. |  |
