Is parking available on-site?
There are very limited parking facilities at the College and parking is NOT generally available for guests. Exceptional circumstances may be made, please contact us with your requests, particularly for those with access requirements. The use of Oxford’s excellent Park & Ride links are therefore recommended for most guests.
