A Day Trip to Oxford

As it is the bank holiday weekend what better time than to take a little jaunt out of London to Oxford. I have never been before. When I was growing up I always wanted to go to Oxford University to study English but that just never worked out so instead I contented myself with a lovely day wandering around and looking at the beautiful buildings.
We took the Oxford Tube down from London and arrived early afternoon. We had such a lovely walk through the streets admiring all the architecture. It is such a shame that a lot of the interiors are off limits as I can only imagine how stunning they are.

This is a very picture heavy post so grab a cup of tea and have a scroll!





After we has our fill of everything  we could see we followed a tip on a pub and we were not disappointed. Hidden down an alleyway 'The Turf Tavern' is a perfect little hideaway with a very good pub grub menu and plenty of seating and some fire pits. The courtyard is framed with original mid 13th century city walls. I would highly recommend visiting if you are in Oxford.
 
We honestly has the nicest day. It was lovely to do something different and get some fresh air over the bank holiday weekend.

I hope you had a lovely Easter.
