Chinnor
Rural Oxfordshire, the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – this is the environment surrounding Chinnor and making it a popular and attractive place to live.
The village is large enough to have a good range of local shops and facilities, including three pubs - and a superb gastro pub at the top of Chinnor Hill. As well as being in a lovely setting, Chinnor is just 40 miles from London and 30 minutes from Oxford. The M40 is the link between the two, and it's easy to reach Junctions 5 and 6. A new home here is also well placed for Aylesbury, High Wycombe, Reading and Maidenhead.
The Chiltern Hills are a wonderful backdrop, with countless walking and cycling trails to follow, woodland to explore and from the top, panoramic views across Oxfordshire.
