Oxford is famous as one of the oldest university cities in the world.

Students in Oxford enjoy the many green spaces where you can have a picnic, play frisbee, tennis or football or just relax.  If you feel active, you can also walk to the top of South Park to see the famous view of Oxford’s spires.

There are plenty of theatres in Oxford offering ballet, opera, drama and comedy shows so there’s something for everyone.

Oxford offers great shopping facilities, from the well-known High Street names, modern shopping centres and malls to the interesting Victorian covered market.
When it comes to eating out or having a drink with friends, you will find restaurants and pubs for all ages and tastes.  There is a wide choice, from coffee houses through to gourmet restaurants and from ancient pubs to wine bars.

Being in Oxford means that students have a safe environment and can enjoy the many attractions of such a beautiful and famous city.

It also means that you are never very far from anywhere else: London is only 50 minutes away by train, Wales is about 2 hours from us and there's plenty of choice if you fancy a day by the sea.  Even Scotland is not too far to go for a weekend.
