It is also ideal for people working locally in Milton Keynes, Banbury and Northampton. It has a completely new kitchen with a bar area - I provide a continental breakfast for you to help yourself to. There is a double bedroom with fitted cupboards and an extra twin bedroom which is ideal for either 2 couples or children. There is an extra charge for the second room. The views from the windows are across the fields and there is complete privacy and peace. There is a walk in shower and a separate toilet.

I work for KSB Equine running their marketing campaigns and this involves my knowledge and love of horses. We supply horse supplements to the horse world and in particular the racing sector which is very exciting to work in . I love cooking, playing tennis and ping pong. I enjoy meeting lots of different people through renting out my main house and also Yew Tree Cottage. I was on the TV series, 3 in a bed with my B and B business in the Old Rectory which was great fun filming. The main house is available for renting as a whole house and is regularly booked for wedding parties, and people travelling from abroad and family gatherings. It is also available on a B and B basis.
