Buscot Manor in Buscot, England

Six large bedrooms feature either a huge Four Poster bed or large French inspired beds, each with seating areas around fireplaces. The spacious bathrooms are uniquely furnished with deep roll top baths rather than stand-alone showers. A completely self-contained annex provides additional space for larger groups, and fast fibre broadband is available for those who need to work.

The heart of the home is the Kitchen/Breakfast room centered around a Farmhouse table seating six, with a 5-oven Aga and additional electric oven and hob. The elegant dining room seats 12 formally or 20+ informally, and private dining with chefs is available by arrangement. Outside, the BBQ area with seating for all complements the kitchen, and a grocery delivery service can stock the kitchen before arrival.

Guests have access to outdoor hot tub, an outdoor swimming pool, and a public bath for wellness. On-site activities include archery, billiards, karaoke, movie nights, bike tours, tennis court, canoeing, and snorkelling. The property also offers a children's playground, kids' outdoor play equipment, board games, and themed dinner nights.
