This electric vehicle charging point sits in the village of Bladon, on the eastern edge of the Cotswolds, positioned conveniently near major routes so you can top up your battery without too much fuss whether you're on a longer journey or taking time to explore the area.
Bladon itself is a quiet village with genuine character. It holds historical significance as the burial place of Sir Winston Churchill, whose grave lies at St Martin's Church. While your car charges, you could take a peaceful walk through the village streets and perhaps visit the churchyard.
The location works well as a base for exploring nearby attractions. Woodstock, a historic market town just a short distance away, has a good selection of independent shops and cafes. The town is also famous as the gateway to Blenheim Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Oxfordshire's most impressive destinations. The palace grounds are extensive and worth a few hours if you have time.
This charging stop essentially lets you combine a practical necessity with the chance to discover some genuinely interesting parts of the region. Whether you're passing through or planning to spend time exploring, you can keep your vehicle topped up while discovering what makes this corner of Oxfordshire worth visiting.
