The Big Blue Bus

About this property

For a truly unique and memorable holiday experience in the stunning rural location of Oxford, look no further than booking a stay aboard The Big Blue Bus – the ultimate glamping experience in the heart of the British countryside. Popular with families, this converted double decker bus sleeps up to 6 guests and boasts 3 double bedrooms on the top deck, with kitchen, toilet, and living area on the bottom.

The bedrooms have a kitsch, homely feel with red, white and blue décor, and are adorned with  Union Jack bunting and cushions, all adding to the ‘Great British Holiday’ vibe. The living area consists of surround seating in candy-striped fabric, and a large table in the centre for family dining, drinks, or maybe even board games!

There’s a well-equipped kitchen area with small stove, microwave and fridge with freezer compartment. Quaint cubby holes and shelves neatly house crockery and glassware, conveniently  making the most of the space.

A spacious and luxurious bathroom has been created in a picturesque shepherds hut next to bus, so that you can still indulge in a well-earned soak at the end of the day. Complimentary toiletries are provided.

The Big Blue Bus looks out over the stunning Oxfordshire countryside and offers views of the beautiful Otmoor reserve, home to a number of bird species and wildlife.

Guests staying on the bus not only have their own garden and BBQ area to enjoy, but also have access to the larger shared Courtyard Garden, with 6 seater jacuzzi hot tub and wendy house of toys for younger guests, as well as the farm shop and laundry room.  Set among acres of lush green countryside, The Big Blue Bus is situated in the stunning Cotswold village of Noke, just 5 miles from the historic city centre of Oxford.

This unique country retreat is on the edge of the thousand acre RSPB Otmoor reserve, a haven for wildlife in the heart of Oxfordshire. With trails alongside the expansive floodplain grazing marsh, here visitors can spot wading birds and wild fowl all year round.

Should you wish to make the short journey into the university city of Oxford you’ll find plenty to do. This “City of Dreaming Spires” is a bustling cosmopolitan town with medieval roots that offers an eclectic mix of ancient and modern. There’s stunning architecture to explore, including the city’s 38 colleges, as well as its other historic buildings and museums. Why not take in a private pub and city tour after all the daytime sightseers have left? Enjoy an evening visiting Oxfords pubs and historical sights with a knowledgeable local guide, while hearing urban legends and tales of this ancient towns past. Soak up the sociable atmosphere and discover pubs favoured by famous alumni as well as admiring the exteriors of well-known colleges en route.

If you’re after something with a slightly more modern flavour head to Oxfords Cirkus, a contemporary kitsch evening bar which offers a cocktail making masterclass. Under the guidance of an expert mixologist learn how to create all manner of exotic flavourful drinks, and pick up tips on how to recreate them at home.

With the surrounding areas offering everything from picturesque country wildlife walks, stunning local parks and medieval architecture, right through to high-end shopping centres, fine dining, drinks, and shows, The Big Blue Bus really is a prime luxury holiday location.
