Doynton is a small, rural village and civil parish in South Gloucestershire, England, sitting on the gentle slopes above the River Boyd valley and within easy reach of Bristol and the northern fringes of the Cotswolds. Its quiet lanes, stone cottages and surrounding farmland give it a distinctly rural character while remaining commutable to nearby towns and cities.
The village has a compact historic core with several listed buildings and a notable parish church, and a community life that revolves around local events, footpaths and agricultural traditions. Economically the area is largely agricultural with many residents commuting out for work, and it attracts walkers and those looking for a countryside base close to urban amenities.
