Experience the rich history and incredible architecture of Oxford and marvel at the Cotswolds Villages on a day trip from Bath. These picturesque hamlets will fill up your camera's memory in seconds.
Leaving Bath behind, pass through the North Wessex Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and arrive in the 9th-century city of Oxford. Despite its age, Oxford's memories are worn into its roads and buildings, preserved even during World War II. Take your time exploring the college precincts, climbing vantage points for skyline views, or visiting the Ashmolean Museum with its art and antiquities collections.
Next, stop in Burford, the 'Gateway to the Cotswolds,' a proud market town with quaint buildings lining the main street. Immerse yourself in local charm and hospitality, and perhaps indulge in a traditional English afternoon tea.
Make a short journey to Bibury, described by William Morris as England's prettiest village. Take in the fairytale-like Arlington Row before embarking on the comfortable return journey to Bath after a full day exploring Oxford and the Cotswold villages.
