Swyre Farm Cottage is quietly situated in a lovely rural location within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty between Coln St. Aldwyns and Aldsworth.
Aldsworth is an unspoilt Cotswold village, situated between the historic market towns of Burford and Cirencester (7 and 11 miles respectively), both offering excellent shopping facilities, pubs, schools, and churches. The market town of Northleach (4 miles) has a surgery, a chemist, a post office, a butcher, and other stores, as well as pubs and restaurants. Larger centres such as Oxford and Cheltenham provide more comprehensive leisure, cultural, and shopping facilities.
Aldsworth itself benefits from a village pub, while the Church of St Bartholomew, set slightly away from the centre, is a fine example of late Norman architecture.
Road and rail communications are provided by the mainline stations at Charlbury and Kemble, which offer frequent services to London Paddington. The A40 near Burford provides good access to Oxford, and the M40 provides access to London and Birmingham.
The desirable village of Coln St. Aldwyns is 2.4 miles south of Swyre Farm Cottage and benefits from a well-stocked village shop, café and pub.

Distances:
Cirencester 11 miles | Cheltenham 19 miles | Northleach 5 miles | Charlbury Station 16 miles (London Paddington 70 mins).
