The historic market town of Witney is in one of the most desirable parts of the country for new build homes. Nestled in the Cotswolds, it offers idyllic country life but with nearby city amenities.
Surrounded by picturesque towns, villages and rolling hills, it has long been regarded as a relaxing and aspirational area to move to. The town is just 12 miles to the west of Oxford, which means the atmosphere, shopping, nightlife and amenities of one of England’s most historic cities is only a 25-minute drive away.
Witney has medieval roots as an important crossing over the River Windrush. It still has numerous historic buildings in the town — such as the 16th century Buttercross in the market square and the 12th century St Mary’s church.
Shopping is easy in the town centre, with both the Woolgate and Marriotts Walk shopping centres. A wide selection of restaurants caters to all tastes, from formal settings to cosy gastropubs.
Witney also offers a good range of sports facilities. The Windrush Leisure Centre in the middle of the town includes a swimming pool, multiple courts for different sports and a fitness studio. Meanwhile, the Witney Lakes business and leisure complex includes a golf course, private health club, beauty salon and hairdressers.
Parents have a choice of three strong state secondary schools — Henry Box School, Wood Green School and Springfield School — as well as two independent schools. They are supported by five primary schools in the town. Abingdon & Witney College offers 16-18-year-olds a wide range of courses and skills for various professions and access to higher education.
