Enjoy Your Thyme
Around Thyme
Our ‘village within a village’ is located within the quintessentially English village of Southrop, situated on the River Leach. Just 2 miles away is the small market town of Lechlade-on-Thames, home to a fantastic traditional butcher and Greengrocer, Cutlers & Cashin.
The ancient market town of Fairford is 3.5 miles west of Thyme, and Burford, a small medieval town lined with wonderful coaching inns, is considered the gateway to the Cotswolds, situated just 6 miles north and is a lovely place to stop en route to further destinations.

Kelmscott Manor
The inspirational Cotswold retreat of William Morris, influencing his ideas on the natural environments and many of his important designs.
The Bell Inn
In nearby Langford is a favourite of ours, serving delicious pub food, it has a large open fire and beer garden.
