Meadow Cottage has some of the most delightful rural settings yet less than a
mile from the shops and local attractions in the historic heart of Bampton.
Bampton is a thriving, attractive and historic village containing a wealth of
beautiful Cotswold stone properties. It is home to everyday amenities,
including a primary school, shops, a supermarket, a post office, a doctor's
surgery and a variety of good pubs and cafes.
The market towns of Witney, Faringdon and Burford are all within a short
distance and provide a broader selection of facilities. Dating back to the
Iron Age, the village of Bampton is one of the oldest settlements in England.
In the early Middle Ages much of its wealth was built on wool, making it home
to many beautiful buildings of architectural interest that still stand today.
For centuries, it has been famed as a centre for Morris Dancing, and more
recently, Bampton is also known as the location of Downton Village, in the
television series, Downton Abbey.
Golf courses at Burford, Buckland, Frilford and Oxford and racing at
Cheltenham and Newbury. The area is well known for attractive open countryside
and lovely walks along a network of footpaths and bridleways, including the
Thames Footpath. With its proximity to a selection of fantastic schools,
including Buckland CE, St Peters CE, Burford High, Hatherop Castle, St Hughs,
Cokethorpe, The Dragon, Abingdon, St Helen's, St Edwards, Radley College and
Oxford High School, the area is particularly sought - after.
