Redwood is in an ideal location for touring Oxfordshire, and a short bus journey to Oxford. The village has all facilities from pubs, shop to village butcher. We have stayed in Renwood before and found this time round that the standard has dropped slightly, some items in the house are a bit tired. Previous occupants don't or won't leave out waste/recycle bins for collection.
