A very easy trip towards the Cotswolds not far from Bicester is Rousham House and gardens. Definitely worth a visit for all garden lovers. It is unspoit and said to be almost as it was in the 18th century when it was designed by William Kent. Rousham.net
Rousham Gardens, historic house and landscape gardens by William Kent. Beautiful setting open year round.
Only 7 miles away from Masons cottage Rousham is completely unspoilt and uncommercialised – no tea room and no shop – just glorious gardens to explore at your leisure. Bring a picnic and comfortable shoes and it is yours for the day. Don’t miss the walled garden with its herbaceous borders, small parterre, pigeon house and espaliers. One of England’s most important gardens, Rousham represents the first phase of English landscape design and remains almost as its designer William Kent left it. Many of the features that delighted its 18th century visitors are still there for 21st century visitors to enjoy. A favourite of many great garden designers, in his ‘Around the World in Eighty gardens” Monty Don says “Kent is the great genius of eighteenth-century garden design and Rousham is his masterpiece, one of the greatest gardens in the world”
