Merriscourt House and Cottages were built in the 1800’s and are situated in a tranquil, rural setting near Chipping Norton in Oxfordshire. Merriscourt offers the perfect site for wedding parties, dining, exhibitions, childrens’ parties and an array of classes and courses. Merriscourt and its surrounding farmland have been inhabited for millenia. Immediately to the north, there are the remains of a Saxon settlement with a Saxon burial ground and Roman quarry close by. The farm itself lies on Cotswold Brash and is close to a natural spring. Records show a family called Le Mire or Merie living on the site in 1244. At the centre of the site is the Old House. It sits below an open green and above a natural spring. Over the centuries, additional houses and farm buildings have been created and the site is now fairly diverse, comprising a variety of dwellings, an impressible courtyard complex, various historic barns and outbuildings, and a working grain store. Woodland shelter belts and mature trees surround the site, beyond which stretches open Cotswold countryside.
