We’re so excited for you to experience and lap up all the Cotswolds has to offer.
If you want to explore, we recommend renting a car as taxi’s are limited in the area.
If not, we highly recommend pre booking Taxi’s in advance.
What to do...
• Visit Daylesford Farm (if you’re there at 10am you are under strict orders to say hello to Ali’s dad David Crampton who you will find sipping one of his many daily flat whites)

• Explore Stow-on-the-Wold & Bourton-on-the-water

Cornwell Manor is 75 miles from London.
The closest airports are Heathrow which is a 1hr 20min drive to the area or Birmingham which is an hour drive.
If you would like to see the best of the Cotswold's we recommend hiring a car and treating yourself to a few extra days pre or post the wedding celebrations. There are very limited car rentals in the Cotswold's so we would recommend picking one up from London/Heathrow/Birmingham.
Coming via train from London to Kingham is a great option. It is a stress free and a relatively quick (90 mins). There is a direct line from London Paddington in to Kingham. However, there is not a taxi rank at Kingham station so you will need to pre book a taxi to take you to where ever you are staying.
If you are staying in Chipping Norton, Stow-on-the-Wold and oddington, you can get the train to Moreton-in-Marsh and get a taxi or hop on a quick bus.
For Ascott-under-Wychwood, it would be easiest to go to Kingham or Charlbury Train station and taxi from there or you can get a train from Paddington to the village which connects via Oxford.
Alternatively, if you are coming from Birmingham there is a direct line in to Banbury, which is about 30 minutes from Cornwell Manor.
