COACHES
COACH ACCESS TO CHURCH STREET IS NOT PERMITTED. Coaches must be parked in Bampton’s Market Square (OX18 2JH) to discharge passengers as they will not fit round the narrow streets and corners in the older parts of the village. The Market Square gives close and easy access to both the historical and ‘Downton Abbey’ areas. Once the passengers are discharged, please ask the driver to park at the Bampton Recreation Ground (OX18 2AA) on the Buckland Road until the passengers are ready to re-embark at the Market Square. Among other facilities in the Square there is a Coffee Shop and a public toilet. Please see attached map.
Private Car Parking
There is on street parking with some restrictions on laybys but in the evening this can be limited as much of Bampton was built before the advent of the car so residents have priority. In addition there is short term parking in the Market Square (up to four hours) and you can ususally find some space in Church Close right next to the Church, if you have a small car. Coaches and minibuses visiting us for the day - please see 'COACHES' above.
