Visit
to Rousham House in Oxfordshire
Tuesday 10th June 2008 - all day

Rousham House is a particularly attractive, privately owned house
which has been in the same family for over 500 years. It has exceptional
gardens running down to the River Cherwell which were landscaped
by William Kent in the late 17th Century. It is likely to be a popular
visit with wives and partners with a relaxed drive reaching Rousham
by late morning, then an opportunity to see the the gardens and
enjoy a picnic lunch. The house is only open to special parties
by prior arrangement so in the afternoon a guided tour of the house
is planned.

Please note:
Rousham House has no catering facilities so you will need to bring
morning coffee and refreshments together with a picnic lunch.
Garden opening times are from 10.00am to 4.30pm.
No dogs or children under the age of 15 years admitted.
