The Farmhouse

About this property

The Farmhouse is a generous and character-filled traditional farmhouse set within open countryside near Oving, close to Whitchurch in Buckinghamshire, where wide skies and far-reaching views stretch towards the rolling Chiltern Hills. Ideal for friends or families who enjoy space, scenery and time together, this welcoming home forms part of a thoughtfully redeveloped farmstead that brings a gentle buzz of life, with a friendly café onsite, walking routes and camping areas all close by. The onsite cafe is a beautifully restored, community-focused farm kitchen offering seasonal, locally sourced and foraged food alongside sustainably roasted local coffee, a welcoming place to slow down, connect and share good food together.

From the moment you arrive, The Farmhouse feels warm and inviting. The ground floor is made for shared moments, beginning with a well-equipped kitchen and dining area that suits everything from slow breakfasts to evening meals cooked together. A quiet study offers a peaceful retreat for reading or catching up on emails, while a handy WC adds everyday convenience. At the heart of the home, the spacious dining room features a working open fire, setting the scene for memorable dinners that stretch long into the evening. Just next door, the comfortable lounge also centres around an open fire, perfect for curling up with a book, chatting over a glass of wine, or simply enjoying the crackle of the flames after a day out.

Two staircases lead up to the first floor, adding to the farmhouse charm. Here you’ll find a collection of well-sized bedrooms, including several doubles and a large quad room with single beds, all served by two shared bathrooms. There’s plenty of room for everyone to settle in, unpack and feel at ease. Outside, the enclosed garden is ideal for both children and dogs, offering a safe space to play while you soak up the countryside air. Ample off-road parking makes arrivals easy, even for larger groups. The surrounding area offers plenty to fill your days.
