Watlington

Watlington is a beautiful historic market town with easy access for commuters to London and Oxford via the Oxford tube at Lewknor, local train links and the M40. There is a vibrant and creative community, independent and artisan shops. Along with three excellent pubs and local restaurants, there is a first-class butcher and delicatessen, the Orange Bakery selling delicious bread and baked goodies every Friday and Saturday, and The Undercroft Market, with locally sourced fruit, vegetables, flowers and plants. Art Week comes to Watlington for the sixth year in May 2025 with open studios and pop-up exhibitions in many of the local shops and businesses. For sporting enthusiasts, the town has a range of sports facilities that embrace football and cricket as well as tennis, squash and bowls.
