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.

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.
