Kingham is a picture‑postcard village in West Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, set in the Evenlode valley on the eastern edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The settlement is noted for its honey‑coloured Cotswold stone houses clustered around a compact centre and its attractive rural setting that draws walkers and day visitors.
Historically an agricultural village, Kingham grew with the arrival of the railway and benefits from Kingham station on the Cotswold Line, giving straightforward links to Oxford and London. Good local pubs, cafés and small shops alongside nearby farms and country estates support a mixed economy of tourism and commuting, while a strong community life of events and clubs keeps the village character firmly intact.
