Immerse yourself in the shopping experience of Bicester village, which celebrate 30 years this year. With 150 retail outlets Bicester has something for everyone. An option for those who don't want to spend the day here is to visit some great attractions nearby such as: Warwick castle, where there are frequent medieval enactments such as jousting, sword fighting, hawking and siege engines. Or how about a tour through the Cotswolds to see the famous sites such as Lower Slaughter and its old mill, Stow with its curious church doorway, Bourton on the water, the Venice of the Cotswolds and The Rollright Stones, a series of Stones as old as Stonehenge itself. Another option: the university city of Oxford, with its dreaming spires. Or Shakespeare's Stratford Upon Avon to see were the bard was born, went to school and where he is buried.
