Facilities

  • Parking and Pedestrian Access: There is limited parking (c. 18 spaces) in two lay-bys on Rollright Road adjacent to the King’s Men stone circle, but these often overflow along the verges at busy times.  The lay-bys should NOT be used as the start of a longer walk, since this substantially reduces parking capacity for others. Do not leave valuables in your car.
  • Food & Drinks: Wyatts garden centre, approximately 1 mile east of the Stones has a cafe and toilets as well as a farm shop which stocks guidebooks and post cards of the Stones.  The nearest pubs and restaurants are in Long Compton and Chipping Norton.
