Discover the charm of Kidlington village, a gateway to historic Oxford and Blenheim Palace, easily explored without a car.
While Oxford City Airport (Kidlington) serves as a convenient gateway, the true delight unfolds as you explore the charming village of Kidlington itself. This large Oxfordshire village invites you to wander its historic heart, where the magnificent 13th-century St. Mary’s Church stands proud, with its elegant spire known as “Our Lady’s Needle”. Enjoy tranquil strolls along the scenic Oxford Canal, or venture into the charming hamlet of Thrupp, just a short walk away.
Travelling without a car from Kidlington is wonderfully straightforward. Frequent bus services whisk you directly to the iconic city of Oxford in minutes, allowing you to immerse yourself in its world-renowned university, museums, and historic lanes. For a grand day out, the majestic Blenheim Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with spectacular gardens, is also easily reached by public transport. Discover a delightful British escape at a relaxed pace, entirely car-free.
