Stanton Harcourt is a small village and civil parish in West Oxfordshire, in the county of Oxfordshire, England. It lies a few miles west of Oxford and is set in gently rolling agricultural countryside, with a compact village centre and narrow lanes connecting to neighbouring market towns; historically farming has been important but many residents now commute for work to nearby centres.
The village has a long, visible history centred on a moated manor and a medieval parish church, with the longtime presence of the Harcourt family leaving a clear mark on its buildings and landscape. Rather than being a tourist hub, Stanton Harcourt feels like a quiet, lived-in place with community activities, historic architecture and easy access to the cultural and academic amenities of Oxford.
