With its original thatched cottages, traditional village pub, and beautiful 12th-century church, Kirtlington exudes a timeless charm that transports visitors back in time. The village is surrounded by lush green fields, and meandering streams, providing ample opportunities for walking, cycling, and other outdoor activities.
Kirtlington's rich history is reflected in its numerous heritage sites, including the magnificent Kirtlington Park, a grand country estate that dates back to the 18th century. The village also played a pivotal role in the English Civil War, with its strategic location and proximity to Oxford making it a site of significant military action. But Kirtlington isn't just a place for history buffs and nature enthusiasts. The village is also home to a vibrant community of artists, writers, and musicians, and hosts a range of cultural events and festivals throughout the year.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat, an active outdoor adventure, or a dose of culture and history, Kirtlington offers something for everyone. So why not come and discover this charming village for yourself?
Charlie and Lucy live on the family farm where Charlie grew up, along with their three young children Daisy, Isabella and Freddie. Having recently taken over the running of the farm, they are working to continue the diversification instigated by Charlie’s parents, James and Roo.
Alongside agriculture, horses are a big feature of the farm which is home to Kirtlington Park Polo Club, started by Charlie’s Great Grandfather, Hugh Budgett, in 1926. In more recent years, Charlie has restarted a stud breeding flat race horses on the same land where his Grandfather, Arthur Budgett, bred horses in the 50s and 60s, including two Derby winners. There are now also offices in old farm buildings and a vet practice on site too.
The Mirror Houses are located in woodland in a quiet area of the farm next to a lake designed by Capability Brown in the early 1750s. With their mirrored exteriors reflecting the trees and nature around them, they blend into the woods allowing guests to experience this wonderful, peaceful spot in a very different way.

Stayed here for a night during our honeymoon and what a fantastic experience! the owners are extremely friendly and professional, you can tell that they;ve put their heart into their work, we loved the room, the coffee corner omg! the privacy and the cleanness of the place. the jaccuzi took sometime to turn hot but the owner came to help and it was truly wonderful we experienced both a sunny day at the check in, and some rain in the forest sitting in the hot tub on the check out day. we CANT wait to be back they've done a wonderful job thank you for having us
We had an amazing experience at the mirror houses. The whole ambience and aesthetics was great. There was so much attention to detail that we wasn't expecting. It was my fiancée's birthday and he loves nature so was incredibly happy to be there. We didn't unfortunately get to use the hot tub as the weather did not permit, however we were glad to see that the team already had it prepared for us when we arrived. Thank you so much to Lucy and the team. We will defo be back
We had the most wonderful stay with OOD! The hosts were very generous and attentive - the cabin was stocked with lots of goodies, toiletries, and equipment. And it was super warm, very clean, and comfortable too. The surroundings are beautiful and peaceful. Ideal if you have a car but not impossible to get to the cabin and around the local area without. We've never stayed anywhere like this before and would 100% visit again!
