Lovely little place within easy walking distance of Abingdon. The accommodation was simple, but perfectly suitable. Sadly, we only stayed for one night as it would have been great for longer.

Cute, warm and exceptionally clean room with a cozy warm bathroom. A nice comfy bed and lovely morning breakfast of fresh fruit, cereals, and breads. Whilst visiting our son in town, we touch a chance and booked one night at Kingfisher Barn and it won’t be our last!

Excellent stay for Abingdon and Oxford
Comfortable room which opened up to a patio and well kept colourful garden. Staff helpful and friendly. Weather was sunny so we were able to have breakfast in the garden. Breakfast was excellent. Easy walking to Abingdon and buses every ten minutes to Oxford.
