Luxury self-catering accommodation in Chipping Norton
Sat on the site of a Norman castle on the edge of the Cotswolds AONB, this vibrant market town has swathes of character for travellers to immerse themselves in.
Retaining much of its authenticity while bringing vitality to this Oxfordshire hill, Chipping Norton, known affectionately as "Chippy" by the locals, has so much going for it that it has become a destination in its own right. Independent shops and eateries have created a thriving community here, while the monthly farmer's market brings visitors in by the droves. Built to wealth by the boom of the wool trade, with Bliss Tweed Mill still being a major attraction to this day.
From Chipping Norton, walkers can enjoy miles upon miles of undulating footpaths leading to stunning view points and chocolate box villages, containing their respective thatch cottages or traditional tearooms. Batsford Arboretum, just 18 miles away, makes for a peaceful afternoon spent in the arms of nature; Blenheim Palace and Chastleton House within easy reach for any historians or culture vultures venturing into the eastern corner of the Cotswolds.
