A picturesque medieval town in the Cotswolds, known for its charming High Street sloping down to the River Windrush and its distinctive stone houses.

Tips from the community

Just thirty minutes’ drive from Oxford, Burford is a gateway town to the Cotswolds and a delightful one at that. A small medieval town built on the River Windrush, it features a sloping high street that overlooks the Windrush Valley. An excellent place to pick up some local produce, an array of antique shops and boutiques flank the tree-lined streets.
