Glympton is a small, rural parish in West Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, set among quietly rolling farmland and parkland. The settlement is dominated by the country estate of Glympton Park and a scattering of stone cottages and farm buildings, giving it a classic Cotswold-edge character while remaining close to larger centres such as Woodstock, Blenheim Palace and Oxford.
The parish has medieval roots and a compact, long-standing community that today combines agriculture with people who commute to nearby towns. Interest tends to focus on the landscape and historic buildings - a small parish church, estate parkland and the sense of living history - and it’s a pleasant spot for country walks and quieter events rather than bustling commercial life.
