Oxford University Parks
Lay out your picnic blanket in the Oxford University Parks, which are open to the public every day. The River Cherwell borders the northeast side of the park, so you can enjoy some alfresco food while watching the punting.
If you enjoy entertainment while you dine, you might also be able to catch a game of cricket, lacrosse, tennis, football, or rugby.
