I'll be heading over to England this summer for a ten-day stay. My son lives in Oxford with his English wife, so my husband and I will be going to visit them and doing some sight-seeing with them.

On a previous visit when we went over for their Wedding, we spent some time in Edinburgh and London. Not that we did everything we could possibly have done in either of those places (far from it, in fact), but this time I want to see more of the country.

Of course I plan to spend at least one day just exploring Oxford itself.

So far my additional itinerary includes Bath, Salisbury, Blenheim, and Hay on Wye (a small Welsh town that has a lot of booksellers). I have no particular agenda for this. It's research for a future fantasy novel, but that gives me a wide net for types of places to visit.

Aside from Hay on Wye, which will be an overnight trip, the other excursions will be day trips.

What else is within reasonable driving distance of Oxford?
