Location

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?


Kirtlington & the Budgetts

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.

A fabulous recharge with the peace and tranquility of the surroundings and the magical phenomenon of being enveloped by the outdoors, yet cosy at the same time. Tremendous thanks to Lucy and Charlie for their kindness and hospitality. These mirror houses are highly recommended as they all enjoy privacy and the same comforts with some offering hots tubs and there is even a mirror sauna. A brilliant getaway.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Mirror Houses Kirtlington with my husband, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The attention to detail, unparalleled hospitality, and serene environment made for an unforgettable getaway. The Budgetts and their team went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, making every aspect of our stay memorable. Special shoutout to Charlie for introducing us to the local Polo event and the spot-on recommendation for dinner at the Oxford Arms and to Lucy for arranging a fabulous massage. If you're looking for a truly unique and luxurious stay, look no further than the Mirror Houses. Can't wait to return!

Me and my partner just got back from the most amazing few days! The cabin was incredibly clean! The grounds were stunning and our favorite part was our outdoor bath - so relaxing! We were both really impressed with the quality of the cabin and all the final touches - Ben absolutely loved the Hawkstone beer in the fridge! We went to see the diddly squat farm shop on our way home! Lucy and Charlie were super lovely and really helpful! We’ve had such a relaxing time and would recommend anyone thinking about staying to book - especially with the outdoor bath (My favorite part)! We will most definitely be back!
