Located in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, Aslan is a combination of two cottages, Cobnut and Chestnut, linked through a secret Narnia-inspired wardrobe doorway. Ideal for larger or multi-generational families, these cottages are part of five luxury self-catering holiday cottages set in 70 acres of meadow and woodland near the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The cottages, rated five stars and gold standard, offer comfort, quality, and cleanliness, showcasing high craftsmanship.
Cobnut Cottage features a spacious living room with an open fireplace, two ensuite bedrooms with solid oak floors, and a dining area with a large refectory table. The oak-framed kitchen is equipped with modern amenities. Chestnut Cottage, on the ground floor of the main barn, is luxurious for two people with a spacious living and dining area, a sofa bed for extra guests, and a bedroom with a view of the pond and valley. The ensuite bathroom is elegantly designed with natural materials.
Guests have exclusive access to the cottages and amenities such as outdoor seating areas, picnic hampers, BBQs, and fire pits. The 70-acre woodland offers walking and cycling trails, a games lawn, a games shed with various activities, and an indoor games room for rainy days. The Barbour family, who have spent over forty years developing Heath Farm, are available to assist guests and ensure a peaceful and enjoyable stay. The property has received Gold awards from Visit England and Green Tourism for exceeding its 5-star rating and commitment to sustainability.
