About the location
Oxford City is renowned for its university colleges, museums, restaurants, cinemas and theatres. As beautiful as Florence, but with added extras like parks, botanic and college gardens and excellent pubs and shops.
The trains and bus services take an hour to London, and there are regular bus services to all airports.
Blenheim Palace is only ten miles from the city, and is the home of Winston Churchill, and the design was based on the palace of Versailles, with fabulous walks, set by Woodstock, a beautiful Cotswold village.
