SITUATION AND COMMUNICATIONSPooh Corner is situated in a rural location in the heart of the rolling countryside in the Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Upper Harford forms part of the parish of Naunton. The village is within the catchment area for the highly regarded Cotswold School (an academy school) in nearby Bourton-on-the-Water which has a good range of everyday amenities and is also strategically located being just off the north/south Fosse Way and near to the A40/M40 to London and the A44 Oxford to Worcester east/west main trunk road.

The larger centres of Cheltenham and Cirencester provide very extensive cultural, shopping and leisure facilities, as well as renowned educational establishments, which include the Cheltenham Ladies’ College, Cheltenham College, Dean Close and a good selection of preparatory schools. Cheltenham and Stratford-upon-Avon also have high ranking state schools for both boys and girls. Sporting opportunities in the area are excellent with the Heythrop Hunt, fishing and shooting. There are golf courses at Naunton Downs (a debenture is available by seperate negotiation), Burford and Lyneham and National Hunt Racing at Stratford-upon-Avon and Cheltenham. Stratford-upon-Avon is also home to the world renowned Royal Shakespeare Company.

There are fine local walks via an abundance of bridleways and footpaths for the horse riding and walking enthusiast.There is fast access to Oxford and London via the A44/M40 or the mainline stations at Kingham and Moreton-in-Marsh serving Oxford, London/Paddington and the Midlands.

The property has licenced access (with certain limitations) from the owner of Upper Harford to a private grass airstrip and substantial storage facilities. The property itself is built of locally quarried Cotswold stone beneath a pitched and tiled roof and benefits from a recently constructed self-contained annexe.
