Abingdon's history will show you striking architecture, museums and a varied cultural life. Treat yourself by shopping in the stylish boutiques, visit the theatre or immerse yourself in the town’s contemporary art.
To appreciate our beautiful riverside location, take a stroll along the towpath or hire a punt down The Thames. With our private moorings, make a day of it – hiring a punt further down stream and stopping for drinks or a meal at the Upper Reaches.
The whole area is steeped in history and Abingdon is believed to be the oldest permanently occupied town in England. We are a stones throw from the rich sites of Oxford, glorious Blenheim Palace and the far more modern shopping experience of Bicester Village. There are also numerous theatres, museums, historic churches and the classic Didcot steam railway nearby. Two excellent golf courses are a short drive away, as is the classic boating town of Henley-on-Thames.
