Begbroke is a small village and civil parish in the district of Cherwell, Oxfordshire, lying a few miles north of Oxford and close to Yarnton and Kidlington. It feels distinctly rural, set among farmland and small woodlands, yet benefits from good road and rail access to the city and beyond via the nearby A44 and Oxford Parkway.
The parish is notable for the presence of Begbroke Science Park, a research and technology campus linked with the university that brings a high‑tech edge to an otherwise agricultural landscape. The village has historic roots stretching back to the Middle Ages, retains traditional cottages and farm buildings, and supports an active community life centred on local clubs, the village hall and countryside pursuits such as walking and riding.
