From city to countryside
Destination30 4월 2023
From world-class museums and a thriving restaurant scene to the prettiest corners of the Cotswolds, explore the best that London and Oxfordshire have to offer over a long weekend.
Day 1

Start your day at London’s best new(ish) brunch spot, The Barbary Next Door – the little-sister restaurant of The Barbary – nestled in Covent Garden’s colourful corner, Neal’s Yard.

Culture vultures should visit the Royal Academy’s annual Summer Exhibition or 180 The Strand for one of its award-winning exhibitions. For a food-fuelled afternoon, try Taste of London in Regent’s Park instead.

Sitting in the heart of Mayfair, Brown’s Hotel has one of London’s most prestigious addresses. Known for attracting royalty, dignitaries and local luminaries, you’ll be in good company.

Style tip

Opt for a chic but effortless pairing – a classic tank, wide-legged trousers and your go-to summer sandals. These, from the Claudie Pierlot boutique, are beautiful.

Day 2

Hop on the train to Bicester Village, where this summer you’ll find live music, soundtracked by exciting local musicians – not to mention new openings from the likes of Axel Arigato and authentic Italian dining from Cecconi's.

Take to the Village terraces to enjoy al fresco dining at farmshop restaurant & cafe, from the minds behind Soho House, La Tua Pasta or Shan Shui, before catching the train to Oxford.

Day 3

Drop your luggage (and any Village purchases) at the newly renovated Randolph Hotel. From here you're within walking distance of some of Oxford’s most renowned landmarks: the Ashmolean Museum , Botanic Garden and the Radcliffe Camera, home to the Bodleian Library.

Spend the afternoon behind-the-scenes at The Oxford Artisan Distillery, sampling award-winning, locally distilled spirits. Then, for dinner, try one of the city’s most-loved neighbourhood restaurants, Gees. Set in an iconic Grade-II listed Victorian conservatory, this newly renovated gem serves up a unique Oxford-meets-Mediterranean menu.

Finish your day in Jericho, Oxford’s coolest neighbourhood, to catch an indie film at Phoenix Picturehouse, go wine tasting at The Oxford Wine Café or settle in for the evening in a historic pub.

Enjoy a day out with a difference – leave the car behind, put on your best activewear and explore the Cotswolds on foot or by bike.

Day 4

With its honey-hued buildings and rolling hillsides, you'll need a full day to explore the Cotswolds. Begin at Blenheim Palace: from historical exhibitions and sporting events to the Blenheim Palace Flower Show, there’s plenty to enjoy this summer.

Then, head to the picturesque village of Great Tew for a quick lunch – Quince and Clover serves exceptional seasonal salads and freshly made cakes. For that idyllic countryside experience (and picture for your Insta) take a walk around one of the county’s most beautiful lavender fields at Snowshill.

Just 15 minutes by car (nestled in charming Broadway), The Lygon Arms is the perfect pit stop. Expect a warm welcome, rural charm and a relaxing spa from this country retreat.
