Oxford is home to a world famous university with a world class reputation. Oxford itself is very attractive, in no small part, by virtue of the many historical university buildings spread throughout the city. The city is characterised by numerous impressive towering spires, historical buildings including the 16th century Bodleian library, the beautiful Christ Church and the Radcliffe Camera, an impressive Rotunda. There are also pretty courtyards, large open green spaces and a river which is popular for boat trips or punting as it is called locally.
Around 7 miles from Oxford, you can find Bicester which is an essential place to visit if you love to shop, with a large purpose built designer village where you may be able to pick up a designer bargain.
The North Western part of Oxfordshire forms the Oxfordshire Cotswolds. The Cotswolds are an area of outstanding natural beauty, famous for beautiful English countryside, attractive country cottages and pretty towns and villages with a quintessentially English feel. The Cotswolds towns are also identifiable by the honey coloured Cotswolds stone which has been used to build the great majority of the buildings. Blenheim Palace is a magnificent historical palace with expansive gardens located near Witney in the Oxfordshire Cotswolds. Pretty Cotswold towns and villages in Oxfordshire well worth a visit include Chipping Norton, Woodstock and Burford.
