Embers Barn is situated in the beautiful village of Little Coxwell, home to a popular country pub, The Eagle Tavern. Surrounded by wonderful countryside and in the Vale of the White Horse, there are many walks on the doorstep including circular routes around the farm or through neighbouring Great Coxwell with it's Tithe Barn and bustling Faringdon.
For an extra special treat, on the BBQ perhaps, we highly recommend The Oxford Reds, a local supplier of home-reared, dry-aged, prime beef. The flavour is amazing and because the meat is hung for 28 days it’s very tender. They sell various cuts and mince online or buy direct from the beef freezer at Gorse Farm Goodies just next door. Please note that prime cuts will need to be booked early via their website.
For your shopping essentials, the neighbouring farm (Goose Farm Goodies) sells milk, honey and eggs. They also have a milk vending machine and do flavoured milkshakes as well as farm fresh milk. Re-usable glass bottles are provided. For larger shops, there are supermarkets in both Faringdon and Swindon.
Little Coxwell is well-placed for visiting the many picturesque towns and villages of the region such as Lechlade-on-Thames, Burford and Bampton, and is within easy reach of the historic city of Oxford.
