location

Sherborne is an enchanting unspoilt Cotswold village, lying upstream from the villages of Windrush and the Barringtons, six miles west of Burford.

Spread out along the south side of an 18th century landscaped valley with an ornamental weir, Sherborne is a Conservation Area within the Cotswold Area Of Outstanding Natural Beauty and comprises in the main of listed buildings. A large proportion of the properties in the village and most of the beautiful surrounding parkland is owned by the National Trust.

Sherborne means ‘clear stream’ or ‘clear water’ and the Sherborne brook, which flows through the water meadow below Mill Hill Farm before going on to join the river Windrush further down the valley, has been known for its clear water since at least medieval times. In those days, every year the sheep for which the Cotswolds were so famous came from miles around to be sheered and washed in its clear waters before their wool was sold in Northleach market place to merchants from as far away as Italy and Flanders.

In later times, when the Sherborne Estate stretched as far as Bibury to the south and as far as Cheltenham to the west, the upper barn and yard at Mill Hill Farm was the stone yard of the Sherborne Estate’s masons.

amenities

There is a very popular, award-winning village shop and tea room, a well-reputed primary school and active parish church. More local shops and restaurants can be found in Burford, Northleach and Bourton on the Water.

The area is well situated for sporting facilities including polo at Cirencester Park, racing at Cheltenham and Stratford, hunting with the Heythrop, the Vale of the White Horse and the Cotswold, golf at Naunton, Lyneham or Burford and the surrounding countryside

provides wonderful walking and riding along a number of public footpaths and bridleways. Cheltenham and Oxford are the main cultural and shopping towns for the area and have excellent schools.
