Minster Lovell is a small, picturesque village and civil parish in West Oxfordshire, Oxfordshire, England, set beside the meandering River Windrush and close to the market town of Witney and the edge of the Cotswolds. It retains a rural character of stone and thatch cottages, a village green and a local pub, with much of the local economy centred on agriculture, small-scale tourism and commuter households.
The village is best known for the atmospheric ruins of Minster Lovell Hall, a 15th-century manor with a surviving dovecote and fishponds that attract visitors and local history interest; the medieval parish church and a tight-knit community of clubs and events give the place a strong sense of continuity between past and present.
