Long Marston sits on the edge of the Vale of Evesham, about six miles south-west of Stratford-upon-Avon, where the Warwickshire countryside begins to roll toward the North Cotswolds. It is a village defined by a long, linear layout, with many of its distinctive timber-framed and thatched cottages dating back several centuries. Historically, it is perhaps best known for its royal connection; in 1651, a fleeing King Charles II famously sought refuge at King’s Lodge, masquerading as a kitchen hand and reportedly failing to wind the roasting jack correctly. While the village remains peaceful, it is more active than its size suggests, supported by a busy community shop, a traditional pub, and a village hall that serves as a central hub. The landscape is mostly flat, making it ideal for the network of footpaths and cycle ways that connect it to the nearby Greenway, a converted railway line that offers a direct, traffic-free route all the way into the heart of Stratford.
