Many
people will visit Blenheim Palace without actually
venturing into Woodstock itself, which is a shame as Woodstock
has a charming centre with many shops, pubs and restaurants.
Known
as the ‘Gateway to the Cotswolds’ and founded in
1163, Woodstock epitomises the charm and beauty of many Cotswold
towns, but with its own unique character.
Full of history, the small market town of
Woodstock has a cosy, friendly atmosphere. The traders are
passionate about their businesses and are delighted to spend
time with their customers. Woodstock is quietly sophisticated,
providing a superior shopping, dining and ‘staying over’
experience; a wide selection of exclusive goods and services
offer real value. This is one of the country’s ‘best
kept secrets’.
The
three principal streets are set out in a triangle with free
parking. Everything is in easy walking distance, allowing you
to browse, stroll and sample stress-free.
As
well as locally produced goods, Woodstock is full of individually
sourced, unusual and exotic finds from around the world. You
can discover international art, antiques from home and abroad,
stunning silks from the East, as well as stylish clothes from
France. If you are looking for art, furniture, interior design
ideas, or are planning a new kitchen or bathroom, there are
specialist, top quality businesses here to help you. Source
