About this property
Mill Race is a charming, modern and very comfortable ground floor apartment a stone's throw from Burford's famous (and much photographed) High Street. Adjacent to the apartment, the millstream runs underneath the Mill, with a beautiful waterfall. Offering the best of both worlds, it's very quiet and secluded, but only 5-minute walk from Burford town centre with its stylish shops, and an excellent choice of pubs and restaurants in one direction, and beautiful countryside walks just a few hundred yards in the other. Mill Race has everything you'll need for a comfortable stay.
Burford is a small medieval town in Oxfordshire. The town began in the middle Saxon period with the founding of a village near the site of the modern priory building. This settlement continued in use until just after the Norman conquest of England when the new town of Burford was built. The Tolsey, midway along Burford's High Street, which was once the focal point for trade, is now a museum. The town centre also has some 15th-century houses and the baroue style townhouse that is now Burford Methodist Church. Between the 14th and 17th centuries Burford was important for its wool trade.

Welcoming hospitality. Helpful if there were coat hooks in kitchen area and a long handle brush to sweep floor.

Easy walking into town to great pubs and shops. Easy to drive to other cotswold villages which is well worth while. Parking on the road easy to do as only loading/unloading at the property. Would definitely stay again when in the uk.

The booking process was good, with a few timely reminders and clear directions about finding the property and key safe. The owners were welcoming and helpful but not intrusive. We appreciated the welcoming treats for us and our dog. We loved Burford and surrounding countryside. The local information and small guide books were helpful. We had 2 excellent meals at the Royal Oak.
