Known for its glorious houses that date back to the 13th and 14th centuries, Shipton-under-Wychwood is a beautiful village. The characterful Shipton Court, built in 1603 by the Lacy family, is one of the grandest early Jacobean houses in Britain.

The village has three historic inns. The Shaven Crown, the Wychwood and the Lamb Inn have been welcoming travellers for centuries. The Shaven Crown in particular has been providing shelter and rest for 500 years and was once a guest house of the nearby Bruern Abbey.
