Location:
The small rural village of Slapton is set within the Tove valley in South Northamptonshire and is surrounded by miles of beautiful countryside. This unspoilt retreat may seem remote but is conveniently located just 5 miles west of Towcester and has easy access to the arterial roads of the A43, M1 and M40. Milton Keynes, Northampton, and Banbury are approximately 30 minutes’ drive from where direct train journeys can be made to London Euston and Marylebone within an hour.
The architecture of Slapton comprises mostly of honeyed Northamptonshire sandstone with steeply pitched roofs, some of which still retain thatch coverings. The magnificent village church of Saint Botolph dates from the 13th century and is fortunate to have a collection of unique medieval frescoes on display after being covered over with whitewash during the reformation.
A pleasant country walk will lead you to the nearby village of Abthorpe where you will find a cosy inn and a short drive brings you to the market town of Towcester with its independent and boutique shops as well as bars, restaurants, and supermarkets. There is also a popular leisure centre with swimming pool.
Families with young children will find a good range of primary and pre-school establishments in several of the surrounding villages as well as independent schooling at Winchester House in Brackley and Akeley Wood near to Buckingham as well as Bloxham and Stowe.
