Kingfisher Barn

The site at Kingfisher Barn was created by converting old farm buildings. Made of red brick, stone and handmade tiles, the barn oozes charm and history.  Situated around a courtyard garden and all on the ground floor, we offer 4 double rooms, 4 twin rooms, and 2 spacious single rooms for our guests.

The history surrounding Abingdon adds to its appeal as an excellent base for a day out, a short break or holiday. Many of its buildings have remained unchanged for hundreds of years, and the Monday market has existed since 1556. There is also a farmers market which sells local produce every third Monday of the month. Two of the main roads into Abingdon cross the River Thames and the River Ock, over bridges that are themselves listed as ancient monuments. The bridge over the Thames is over 550 years old. In more recent years Abingdon has also become famous for being the birthplace of MG Cars.

Being situated on The River Thames has always been important to the town and today is a focal point for a selection of recreational activities. Attractive riverside gardens and friendly pubs and restaurants cater for many visitors, while anglers fill the river banks and pleasure cruisers pass unhurriedly through the picturesque lock.

Abingdon is also centrally located, making it a convenient base for day trips.
