Nuneham Courtenay has been ranked as the most stylish place to live in Oxfordshire, according to a new study.
The findings come from a survey of 5,000 people by online furniture store, Furniturebox.
In second place was Kingham, Woodstock was third, Thame was fourth, and Dorchester-on-Thames was fifth.

Locations were ranked according to the beauty of the buildings, the stunning scenery and their popularity with artists and as a filming location.
Nuneham Courtenay has often been used as a TV location and Inspector Morse was filmed there.
It is located just five miles from Oxford and is mainly formed of pretty cottages lining either side of the main road.
It’s also home to Harcourt Aboretum, famed for its gorgeous autumnal colours.
Nuneham Courtenay came fifth on the national list which was topped by Lavenham in Suffolk.
A Furniturebox spokesperson said: “Nuneham Courtenay is the most stylish place to live in Oxfordshire, narrowly beating Kingham in second place and Woodstock in third.
“Any of the Oxfordshire locations voted by residents would have been worthy winners and show why it is such a stylish county, loved by artists, film-makers and tourists from all over the world.
“What is interesting is how many of the most stylish locations were not the most affluent places in their locality.
“Good style can be achieved whatever your budget and what marks out Oxfordshire's most stylish places is how they all have a timeless quality achieved over generations by the stylish people living there.
“That same sense of style is true with furniture and having a good eye for the right piece for your home is far more important than how much money you have to spend.”
