Bampton sits close to the edge of the Cotswolds and is one of the oldest and prettiest villages in the area. While it retains much of the character of the traditional Cotswold village, it is also a hive of activity with a multitude of events taking place throughout the year - with something for everyone.

Bampton is also the envy of many of the neighbouring villages in that it boasts an excellent array of amenities for a village of its size. It has a post office, library, a sports ground and pavilion, an art gallery, two churches, a primary school, a medical centre and of course a market square.

The village is well known as one of the film sets for Downton Abbey and as the background to the popular crime novels by Melvin Starr featuring the mediaeval surgeon, Hugh de Singleton.
