Grab a snack at Mrs Bumbles Delicatessen whilst viewing Burford's honey coloured limestone buildings which appear to have hardly changed for hundreds of years. Or have lunch at the Cherwell Boathouse before taking a leisurely punt down the river taking in the University sights.Perhaps later taking a walking tour of Oxford visiting Christ Church and its Great Hall, inspiration for Hogwarts Hall of Harry Potter fame.

For the foodies

There are plenty of great places to eat and drink in the area.
The Good Pub Guide 2014 lists The Royal Oak in Ramsden (2m) and also mentions The Angel, The Fleece and The Horseshoes , all in Witney (2.5m). We can recommend them all.
If you like your ale then Camra encourages you to visit The Eagle Tavern and The New Inn in Witney. The local beers including Hobgoblin and Black Wych are brewed at the Wychwood Brewary (2m)- pre book your tour and don't plan to drive afterwards.

For the ultimate eating experience a bit further a field (21m) but worth the trip is Le Manoir Aux Quat' Saisons- book well in advance and unless your surname is Abramovich go for lunch.

A full list of all the places we love to visit is available in the house.
