From Bristol: Oxford and Cotswolds Small-Group Day Trip

Discover Oxford and the Cotswolds on a day trip from Bristol. Explore the historic city of Oxford, visit the charming village of Burford, and stroll through the picturesque village of Bibury.
Begin your journey by heading out of Bristol and into the North Wessex Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Drive through a landscape of grasslands and valleys, taking in the scenery.

Your first stop is Oxford, where you have time to explore the precincts of the many colleges, climb to the vantage points to admire the skyline, or see the art and antiquities collections in the Ashmolean Museum. Spires rocket towards the sky as you wander elegant halls straight out of Harry Potter.

Next, stop in Burford, the ‘Gateway to the Cotswolds’. This small market town overflows with character and depth. The main street is lined with quaint properties. Take in the local charm and hospitality, and if you’re hungry, try a traditional English ‘Afternoon Tea’.

Then, make the short journey to Bibury. This place was described by William Morris as the prettiest village in England, and Henry Ford wanted to dismantle it and ship it back to the USA. Stroll to the famous and fairytale-like Arlington Row. If you wander the length of the Coln River, make sure and wave to the trout swimming alongside you.

After a full day exploring the city of Oxford and the villages of the Cotswolds, embark on the comfortable return journey to Bristol.
