Days Out

There are a number of places a little further afield that are also worth a visit, especially once you’ve got to know Oxford’s more central delights. You might wish to take a trip to Radley Lakes or Abingdon, the Harcourt Arboretum or even Blenheim Palace and Woodstock. You can either pay to go into Blenheim Palace (it’s huge!) or you can use the public footpath through the grounds for free. It’s also super easy to get to London, either by train or bus (the Oxford Tube). The beautiful city of Bath is only about 1hr 15 mins away by train. Many places in the Cotswolds are accessible by public transport (some of these are up to a couple of hours away); consider Burford, Castle Combe and Minster Lovell.
