The AreaAscott-under-Wychwood

Situated in the Evenlode Valley, Ascott-under-Wychwood is surrounded by rolling hills, lush green meadows, and ancient woodlands, creating a stunning backdrop for its traditional stone houses. The village exudes a sense of timeless beauty and tranquillity, making it a popular destination for those seeking a serene countryside experience.

In the High Street you will find Ascott Village Shop, owned and run by the local community, selling a range of local produce as well as baguettes and pasties baked on the premises. A traditional pub, The Swan, serves hearty meals and locally brewed ales.

Occupying the highest point of Oxfordshire, Chipping Norton is a bustling market town located 6.5 miles to the north in the Cotswold Hills.

Like many Cotswold towns, Chipping Norton is incredibly pretty, many of the original houses around the market place were rebuilt in the 18th century with fashionable Georgian frontages. The town’s wealth grew through the local wool trade and today is renowned for its antique shops and diverse shopping, including a regular market.

Chipping Norton retains a robust living, working market town atmosphere, there is a good choice of places to eat, supermarkets and top-quality entertainment at the wonderful theatre, famous for its pantomime and visiting performers.

At only 6 miles to the south, Burford’s famous High Street sweeps downhill towards the River Windrush, its medieval bridge and its impressive church, both sides of the street flanked by an unbroken line of historic houses and shops. Little has changed over the centuries, Burford is popular with visitors, both for its beauty and history but also for its shopping and wide variety of places to eat, with a number of restaurants, pubs and teashops but also has a doctors surgery and library.

If that wasn’t enough, another attraction is the proximity to Soho Farmhouse, Daylesford, Diddly Squat Farm Shop and some of north Cotswold’s most renowned pubs – all a short drive away, merely adding to the appeal of this superb area.

There is a good selection of schools, both state and private in the area as well as train station in the village.
