Very friendly hosts, accommodated a change to the booking on short notice. The whole place is beautiful. Round buildings tend to have little space, but it's very well utilized here. Kitchen stocked with lots of utensils and spices for cooking....

Totally fell in love when we booked the windmill tower. The pictures didn't give it justice. The attention to detail is spot on. Super views from the top.

The Windmill Blackthorn Hill
Featured in the 'Times Newspaper' as one of UK's Top 10 Places to Stay with Spectacular Views: "A truly amazing experience." Enjoy a luxurious stay in a historic 17th c grade II Windmill and create unforgettable memories. An extraordinary adult-only self-catering accommodation. A perfect Romantic Escape for 2 or a chance to spend quality time with family and friends, max of 4 adults. *Please note that there will be an additional one-off cleaning charge if 1-2 guests require the use of the second bedroom (Flour Room) otherwise the room will be locked. You won’t be short of things to do - from boutique shopping at the renowned Bicester Village to leisurely walks around historical Oxford. Additionally, Blenheim Palace and Waddesdon Manor are nearby. Two delightful bedrooms await, each featuring comfortable double beds and luxurious en-suite bathrooms. Ambient lighting sets the mood, showcasing all their features. They are kept cosy and warm, allowing you to snuggle up and enjoy your favourite programs on a large HD Smart TV. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare meals, including a dishwasher, fridge/ice box, microwave, toaster, and coffee maker. Complimentary coffee pods are available, along with milk in the fridge and condiments in the cupboard. The real highlight of The Windmill is the breathtaking sky lounge. It features comfortable sofas positioned in front of a large smart TV and offers magnificent 360-degree views of the rural countryside. We recommend waking up early, brewing a fresh cup of coffee, and trying to spot grazing deer. You might even catch a glimpse of red kites soaring over the landscape, not to mention the awe-inspiring sunsets and sunrises.
A private lawn area on the roof terrace is perfect for enjoying summer days, complete with a table, cushioned seats, and a parasol umbrella to provide shade. Relax and enjoy a couple of glasses of wine while watching the amazing sunsets. Parking: Secure gated parking is available for two cars, one with an EV charger.
