Welcome to Oxenwood

Oxenwood is a small village located in the county of Wiltshire, England. The village is situated in the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, which makes it a popular destination for tourists who are looking to explore the countryside. The village is surrounded by rolling hills, lush green fields, and dense forests, which provide a perfect backdrop for hiking, cycling, and other outdoor activities.

The village of Oxenwood has a rich history that dates back to the Roman times. The village was once a thriving market town, and evidence of its past can still be seen in the form of the old market square and the medieval church of St. Michael and All Angels. Today, the village is a peaceful and quiet place, with a small population of around 200 people. The village has a strong sense of community, and residents often come together for events and festivals throughout the year.

One of the main attractions of Oxenwood is the Oxenwood Outdoor Education Centre. The centre is located in the heart of the village and offers a range of outdoor activities for people of all ages. The centre is particularly popular with schools and youth groups, who come to the centre to take part in activities such as archery, canoeing, and rock climbing. The centre also offers accommodation for visitors who want to stay in the village and explore the surrounding countryside.
