A MOTHER and daughter team have opened a village coffee shop.

Angela and Eleanor Francis started trading at Dashwoods, which is open seven days a week, in Milton-under-Wychwood, near Witney, last month.

The business, which overlooks the village green, has a zero-waste target, offers a swap a book scheme and sells paintings and other craft by artists from across Oxfordshire.

Angela said: "My daughter and I want our coffee shop to become a meeting place for all ages of local people who can enjoy what we have on offer and catch up with friends, work away from the office with free WIFI, over a cup of coffee or tea.”

The shop is open from 9am to 5pm from Monday to Saturday and 10am to midday on Sundays.

It serves hot and cold drinks, cakes and paninis.
