The Radcliffe Camera Oxford, Mathew Arnold's city of dreaming spires, is the ideal base for visitors to explore or learn more about the history of the university and city perhaps at the fascinating Oxford Story exhibition in Broad Street. In the summer you can try your hand at punting on the river where Lewis Carrol first told his story of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland". If you prefer, you can also wander around the city where so many scenes from Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited were filmed

Balliol College There is so much to see in this beautiful city that regularly wins the Britain in Bloom competition and holds the silver award from the Entente Florale European contest. Oxford city centre and main shopping area are easilly reached by car but we would recommend using the fast regular bus service or even hiring a bike. Younger family members may also wish to visit Christchurch College and School which they will recognise as being the location for some of the scenes in the "Harry Potter" films.

Further afield we particularly recommend a visit to Woodstock and Blenheim Palace or further on to Stratford-upon-Avon, William Shakespeare's birth place. London and the West End is less than an hour away by car or using the excellent frequent coach service, details of which can be found on either www.oxfordbus.co.uk or www.stagecoach-oxford.co.uk/oxfordtube. Connections to London's major airports Heathrow and Gatwick can also be made using the Oxford Bus Company's service which runs directly from the airport terminals to the centre of Oxford. For more information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
