Crowell is a small hilltop village and civil parish in South Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, sitting on chalk downland at the edge of the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its elevated position gives wide rural views and a network of public footpaths and bridleways that attract walkers to the mosaic of pasture, hedgerows and small woodlands.
With medieval roots, the settlement retains a mixture of traditional cottages and a modest parish church, and its economy remains largely agricultural with many residents commuting to nearby towns such as Thame and Chinnor or further afield to Oxford. Community life is quiet but active, centred on village gatherings and the parish council rather than shops or industry.
