SITUATION
Forest Grove is located on the select Cotswold Gate development on the outskirts of the popular and historic town of Burford which backs onto Burford golf course and is a great position to access all Burford offers.
Burford is a picturesque Cotswold market town with many historical connections. Situated on the Oxfordshire/Gloucestershire border and known as the Gateway to the Cotswolds, it offers a good range of shopping facilities, local schools, a fine parish Church, and a number of public houses and restaurants. High Street chains haven't made a significant impression on Burford, which adds to its uniqueness and helps make it an enduring place to live, work and visit. The town nestles in the Windrush Valley surrounded by beautiful countryside, yet is within easy reach of Oxford and Cheltenham, both of which provide the main cultural and shopping facilities for the area. There are good road communications to London via the A40/M40 and a train service from Charlbury to London-Paddington.
