VACATION DETAILS

Oxford is home to a world famous university, and most of the colleges and university buildings are located in the centre of Oxford, within easy walking distance. Don't miss the Bodleian Library, which has its own shop, and nearby the Radcliffe Camera, which is not open to the public, but is well worth a view from the outside. Also nearby, in the Broad, is the Sheldonian Theatre, venue for official University functions as well as concerts. The University also owns the Botanic Garden, founded in 1621 as Physick Garden for the study of plants for medicinal and scientific use - peace and quiet from the city just two minutes down High Street.

Moreton-in-Marsh is a market town on the Roman Fosse Way and ideally situated for exploring the unique Cotswold countryside with its wealth of honey-coloured villages. Broadway, Chipping Campden, Bourton-on-the-Water and Stow-on-the-Wold are all within a 9 mile radius. Historic sites, castles, stately homes, famous gardens, museums, galleries and wild life parks abound. Racing at Cheltenham, Worcester, Stratford and Warwick, as well as the theatres of Stratford-upon-Avon and Oxford are within easy reach.
