We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Canal Yard, Thrupp, Oxfordshire Two character cottages with holiday letting potential An opportunity to acquire two adjoining period properties in the attractive canal setting of Thrupp, offering seven bedrooms across two separate homes.
Currently used as holiday accommodation, 1 Canal Yard and 2/3 Canal Yard provide options for investors, holiday accommodation operators or purchasers looking to live in one property while generating an income from the other, subject to the necessary permissions.
The properties combine traditional character with a setting well suited to countryside breaks, family gatherings and visits to Oxfordshire.
Available together, with individual purchases also considered.
1 Canal Yard A Grade II listed thatched cottage offering approximately 1,007 sq ft of accommodation, with two double bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Period features include exposed beams and feature fireplaces, complemented by a sitting room and a spacious kitchen/dining room.
Gardens to the front and rear provide outdoor space to enjoy the surroundings.
The existing holiday accommodation listing advertises capacity for up to seven guests, reflecting the current sleeping arrangements.
2/3 Canal Yard The larger property offers five bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing accommodation currently marketed towards larger families and groups.
Its period character, canal views and generous accommodation create a different proposition alongside the smaller cottage.
The existing operator advertises capacity for up to 14 guests, depending on the current bed configuration.
The combined opportunity The contrasting sizes offer scope for a purchaser to establish their own accommodation operation catering for different party sizes.
Alternatively, the properties could suit buyers seeking a home alongside a separate letting opportunity, or those wishing to explore personal use combined with holiday accommodation.
Both properties have existing holiday accommodation listings and guest reviews, providing evidence of their use within this market.
The existing business, bookings and online profiles do not form part of the sale. The location Thrupp offers an appealing Oxford Canal setting, with towpath walks and countryside close by.
Kidlington provides everyday shops and services, while Oxford, Woodstock and Blenheim Palace offer further destinations for residents and visitors.
Further information The sale excludes existing bookings, furnishings, contents, management agreements, booking accounts, online profiles and goodwill.
Purchasers intending to offer holiday accommodation would need to establish their own arrangements and confirm the relevant permissions, title restrictions and operational requirements.
