Guests have their own outside patio with table and chairs (and sun umbrella) in the back garden where they can sit and relax or enjoy a meal in the beautiful weather. Guest access The entire Witney Hideaway is yours to use during your visit. This cosy ground floor flat is attached to the main house which is occupied by tenants so please be mindful of quiet hours between 10pm and 8am. Back Garden: The back garden is for the tenants in the main house and guests in the Witney Hideaway. Please be respectful of privacy if the tenants are outside in the back garden. If kids need to blow off steam we recommend they go to The Leys which is close by. We'll soon be creating a separate space in the back garden for our guests so stay tuned! Parking: Important information to note before your visit. Width of drive and size of car: The Witney Hideaway is located in an historical part of town and, therefore, roads and drives tend to be narrow. Our drive is best suited for smaller cars. Guest Parking: For guests, there is space to park one small car either in front of the navy blue door or in front of the white, bay window. Our tenants in the main house also park their car on the drive. If you have a larger car, please consider using the free street parking which is nearby. Thoughtful Parking: When you park on the drive, please please be mindful not to block in our tenant's car. You can see photos of our drive in our listing to give you an idea of perspective. Drive is open on one side: We have removed a portion of our stone wall to allow easier access to the drive. There is a small concrete slope where the wall was removed. When parking please do not drive over our neighbour’s drive if at all humanly possible. How to enter the drive: If you are entering from Corn Street, often it's easier to drive past the Witney Hideaway, turn around at the next intersection then enter the drive from the opposite direction. We have recently removed a portion of our stone wall and made a small concrete slope to make entry to the drive easier. Accessibility to the drive: Sometimes people park on the street immediately behind our drive which makes it tricky to pull in and out of the drive. We’ve lobbied the local council for years to put double-lines on this section of the road immediately behind our drive but no success so far, unfortunately. We are continuing to work on this! Lots of free street parking: There is free street parking on local streets (around 50 meter walk from front door) especially on Saxon Way which is the first street on the right after you pass the Witney Hideaway. Please avoid those double lines and use the normal precautions when parking on public streets. Other things to note If you are bringing very little children, before your arrival please let us know if you require a travel cot or high chair.
