Cornbury and Wychwood is a small, largely rural parish in West Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, set in the rolling countryside on the fringes of the ancient Wychwood Forest and the Evenlode valley. The landscape is dominated by the historic Cornbury Park estate with its deer park and woods, giving the area a strong sense of continuity with its wooded and agricultural past.

Historically the forest was a royal hunting ground and the estate includes a 17th‑century house, Cornbury House, long associated with local landed families. Today the parish combines estate management, farming and conservation work with occasional cultural events and a small, close‑knit community focused on protecting the character and biodiversity of this part of rural Oxfordshire.
