Oxford, Cropredy & Return

Head south on the South Oxford Canal from Lower Heyford and cruise to the pretty village of Thrupp, with a selection of pubs and an award-winning tea room nearby. Take in the world-famous Blenheim Palace – just a short taxi ride away. Continue cruising south to the moorings close to Isis lock for an easy walk into Oxford– the City of Dreaming Spires, enjoying all of the history the city has to offer. Head back north through Wovercote and Lower Heyford, continuing on to the old town of Banbury with its Market Place, Castle Quay shopping centre, cinema, 10 pin bowling and famous Tooleys Boatyard. Enjoy the beautiful countryside as you head for the picturesque village of Cropredy where you can relax before returning to the Lower Heyford base.
