If you are arriving by car, turn off the main road into Cave Street, where you will be able to drop off only.  There is no parking available.  If a student is making their own way by car, please use the Thornhill Park and Ride.  From the Park and Ride take the 400 bus (the purple one) and get off at St Clement’s Street (at the bottom of Headington Hill, just after the traffic lights). Parking costs £2 and an adult return is £2.80.

St Clement’s Street benefits from multiple bus stops, walking distance from the course location.  Buses are available to and from the Park and Ride, the city centre, London and the main London airports.  If arriving by bus, the stops are well known as ‘St Clement’s’ and bus drivers are happy to alert you of your arrival, so you know when to get off.

The bus journey to/from London Heathrow will take around 2 hours and to/from London Gatwick around 2 1/2 hours, though allow longer in rush hour.

Be careful – there are two train stations in Oxford, the one in the city centre, known as Oxford, and one just outside, known as Oxford Parkway.  The train station in the city centre is more accessible, with a number of bus routes servicing this stop.  From the train station, you have a number of options.  You can take a bus, such as the 400 Park and Ride to Thornhill, you can take a taxi or you can walk.  A taxi will take approximately 10 minutes and should cost around £8.  Taxis are generally available outside the station, although it is advisable to book in advance. Though it is a nice walk, it will take you approximately 30 minutes.
