History of Science Museum is just a few minutes from Bodleian, next to the Sheldonian Theatre. It is free to visit, but they do accept donations, and they also have pretty interesting things in their gift shop. They don’t have tea rooms, but Bodleian’s tea rooms are on the opposite side, so you can have […]
Bodleian Library offers three tours, so make sure you book yours if you are visiting Oxford. It’s really nice and the guide offers plenty of details.

I’ve been to Nosebag in Oxford twice. The first, time I went there with the lovely Galina at chezmaximka.blogspot.com. She recommend this place to me and I loved it. That time I had a delicious vegan truffle and I said I’m going to get it again. For my birthday we wanted to get desserts somewhere, […]

A couple of days ago I blogged about the Butterfly House at Blenheim Palace, now is time to blog about Blenheim Palace. It is such a lovely place with so many wonderful things to see. I loved it and I would gladly visit it again, as I haven’t seen everything. Blenheim Palace is known for […]
In the next days I’m going to blog about my visit to Blenheim Palace, but, until then, I thought it would be nice to share pictures from the butterfly house. It is included in the entry fee and it is a must see. It’s small, but so relaxing to visit. Also, I have so many […]
The Oxfordshire Museum, also known as Oxfordshire County Museum is a small, free museum in the town of Woodstock. It was close to the camping site, so it was a perfect place to go to. We went there in the afternoon, on the day we’ve got to the camping site. It was too late in […]
Hubby and I talked where we should go in our day off last week and after we spent time looking online, I told him “Let’s go to Oxford”. Oxford is far from us, but as we were staying near Birmingham, it was only an hour away. We knew there are park&ride car parks in the […]
