Oddington is a small village of around only 40 homes and has a real sense of community. There is a parish church but further amenities are available in nearby Bicester or Kidlington, both around a 15 minute drive away. Both offer supermarkets, dentists, doctors, leisure centres and much more. The location is perfect for those looking to make the most of the outdoor lifestyle with fantastic walks nearby over the nature reserve. For travel further afield, the M40 offers easy access to London, Birmingham and beyond.
