Hotels in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

Oxfordshire is in south-central England, with a temperate climate: summers are mild (68°F/20°C) for punting on the River Cherwell, while winters are cool (40°F/4°C) for exploring Oxford University's 12th-century colleges like Christ Church. The region is famous for its literary links-C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien wrote here-and you can visit the Eagle and Child pub where they met. For a different vibe, head to the Cotswolds' rolling hills in the east, where you can hike through the village of Burford or cycle the Thames Path in spring (55°F/13°C) when wildflowers bloom.
