Milton-under-Wychwood is a picturesque village nestled in the Evenlode Valley within the Oxfordshire Cotswolds.
The "Wychwood" part of its name refers to the ancient Royal Forest of Wychwood, which once covered a vast area of West Oxfordshire. While much of the forest has disappeared over the centuries, remnants still exist and contribute to the village's tranquil and rural character.
Milton-under-Wychwood itself boasts charming Cotswold stone cottages, a historic church, and a village green, making it a quintessential English village. The village's location makes it a popular base for exploring the surrounding countryside and the remnants of the once extensive Wychwood Forest.
