Proceed eastward along the Oxfordshire Way after crossing the Oxford/Tiddington Road at Albury View and turning onto School Lane. Before winding through Rycote Park's exquisite grounds—once the location of a Tudor house and frequented by royalty including Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, and Charles I—the path winds through the picturesque, rolling countryside.
You'll find a quiet medieval church from the fifteenth century to the south of the manor house. It hasn't changed much over the years, though different decorations have been added. The chapel includes several fascinating characteristics, such as canopied pews and a supported musician’s gallery dating back to 1610.
The chapel is open to the public on certain days between April and September, on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Private tours of the chapel and the grounds and gardens of Rycote Park are available for groups of up to 40 people, which include an introductory talk on Rycote’s history over coffee and tea and a stroll around Capability Brown's landscaped park, as well as the terraces and walled kitchen garden.
