Dulcie Cottage

Preston Crowmarsh sits between Benson and Wallingford in South Oxfordshire, within reach of the Chilterns and the Thames Valley. Dulcie Cottage is a terraced property here, a short walk from the river itself. The hamlet has a quiet, rural character while both towns offer shops, pubs and restaurants—Wallingford has supermarkets and a wider choice of cafés and independent businesses.

Inside, the ground floor holds a living room with a smart TV and open fire, a separate dining room, and a kitchen equipped for proper cooking: electric oven and hob, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, washing machine and tumble dryer. Upstairs are two bedrooms—one with a double bed, one with two singles—and a bathroom with a bath, cubicle shower and heated towel rail. Bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi and electricity are all included. The property sleeps four and you have it entirely to yourselves.

Outside there's private parking for one car, a bike store, and an enclosed lawned garden with a patio and seating area. The location suits people wanting to walk or cycle in the Chilterns—Watlington Hill (a National Trust site) is nearby, as are nature reserves and the Chinnor and Princes Risborough Railway. No smoking inside the cottage.
