Witney is a bustling market town on the banks of the River Windrush in Oxfordshire, surrounded by green, rolling hills. It is famous for manufacturing gloves, blankets and other woollen goods and was recently named one of Britain’s best places to live. As you explore the town centre from your holiday cottage in Witney, you will notice the striking historical architecture, such as the Norman church of St Mary the Virgin and Holy Trinity Parish Church, built in 1849. In the heart of the town, a pretty market square fills up with stalls on Thursdays and Saturdays, where you can pick up fresh, local produce or a woollen blanket made by one of the town’s famous manufacturers. Witney has four museums: Cogges Manor Farm Museum, which is housed in a 13th-century manor house and explores the town’s farming history; Witney Blanket Hall, built in the 18th century by the Company of Blanket Makers and Wychwood Brewery
