These self-catering apartments occupy the former Red Lion pub in Drayton, a small village on the Cotswolds' eastern edge.
The conversion respects the building's local heritage while providing all the conveniences you'd expect from modern accommodation. Drayton itself offers a genuinely quiet experience—the kind of place where you can take unhurried walks and observe village life without the crowds that gather in more famous spots nearby.
The location works well as a base for exploring in different directions. Abingdon-on-Thames, a historic market town, sits just a short drive away with its own shops, restaurants, and pleasant riverside character. Oxford is equally accessible, giving you access to its colleges, museums, and dining scene whenever you want a more substantial day out. If you're keen to venture deeper into the Cotswolds proper, the characteristic stone villages and rolling countryside lie a scenic drive to the west.
The self-catering setup means you can prepare your own meals in the apartments, which proves especially practical if you're staying for several days or prefer to rest between outings rather than eating out every evening. It's a flexible arrangement that lets you move at your own pace and explore as much or as little as you fancy.
