Swinbrook Park, Carterton Your local amenities.

Swinbrook Park is situated in the town of Carterton, one of Oxfordshire’s newest towns, host to a thriving cosmopolitan community located in the beautiful Cotswolds countryside. Carterton was initially known for its market garden produce, tomatoes in particular, but in 1935 the Royal Air Force arrived and RAF Brize Norton is now Britain’s largest air base and the biggest employer in the area.

The Swinbrook Park development has been cleverly designed to blend seamlessly with the adjoining countryside. Prioritising open space, the expanse of footpaths and cycle routes

will inspire residents and their guests to maximise their free time in the great outdoors. Kilkenny Country Park to the east of the development provides a further recreational area for the pursuit of sports and leisure activities.

Carterton is an expanding town benefitting from inward investment to create chic new business, retail and leisure quarters. Among the existing amenities are a library, supermarkets, a sports centre and excellent local schools.

Close by, neighbouring town, Witney offers a further choice of retailers

as well as a weekly farmers market offering a range of superb local produce, the city of Oxford is within easy reach giving visitors a choice of arts, culture, history and of course, more shopping. For summer days out you could enjoy a trip to stately homes such as Blenheim Palace, the birthplace of Winston Churchill or the pretty village of Burford, just three miles north of Swinbrook Park which has been voted one of the most idyllic places to live in Europe by Forbes magazine.

Swinbrook Park, find your dream home in the ideal location.

Carterton nestles in the stunning Cotswolds countryside and offers residents a wide range of local amenities and recreational activities as well as excellent retail and educational facilities.
