Cornwell is a small, quiet hamlet in the district of West Oxfordshire, in the county of Oxfordshire, England. Set in rolling farmland on the northern fringes of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it has the compact feel of a traditional rural community with stone cottages and narrow lanes and is popular with walkers and people seeking a quieter life away from larger towns.

Historically agricultural, Cornwell has few services of its own so residents look to nearby market towns such as Chipping Norton and Burford for shops, schools and markets. Its low-key character, modest historic buildings and proximity to well-known countryside make it typical of the small settlements that dot west Oxfordshire.
