1000 years of history

Oxford. The very name inspires visions of dreaming spires; cloistered college courtyards; earnest boat crews; languid undergraduates and studious, crusty dons.

Certainly, the Oxford of popular imagination is here, along with all the history and tradition that accompany it.

But there’s a lot more besides. And the beauty of a city so compact, yet so packed with attractions for everyone, is that you can take in so much of what’s on offer without spending too much of your precious time away form the plush rooms, delightful surroundings and sumptuous spa facilities at your base in The Oxford Belfry. We don’t want you to suffer withdrawal symptoms, after all!

Follow the links for a quick round up of ideas on what to do and where to go on your visit to this varied and astonishingly beautiful corner of the UK. And if it turns out you can’t fit in everything you want to see after all.. well, it’s just another good excuse to come back soon!
