Getting here
By car
Eynsham is situated just south of the A40 between Oxford and Witney. There is very limited parking in the Square, and you are advised to use either:
- the main car park off Back Lane, Eynsham, OX29 4QB; or
- the Sports Pavilion car park off the Oxford Road, Eynsham, OX29 4HG.
Both are free and within a 5-minute walk of the Square.
By bus
The S1 bus from Oxford and Witney is a regular service (approximately every 20 minutes). It stops at ‘St Leonard’s Church’ on the Square.
Facilities
There is a disabled toilet on the ground floor of the Bartholomew Room. We do not offer refreshments, but there is a pub (The Red Lion) across the Square and a café (Lyalls) across the road.
