Days Out In Abingdon

Abingdon has one of the most beautiful town centres of any market town in the country, with buildings as fine as in any cathedral close just a few minutes' walk from lovely rural scenery and riverside walks. From a breakfast cup of coffee in the sunshine, to a delicious continental lunch in one of our cafes, to fine dining in our gastro-pubs, Abingdon will give you great tastes and great service whilst you explore the town, discover the history, lap up the views and learn how to enjoy shopping again in "indy" shops with products that are different and unusual....and all the time you can feel that you are in the heart of a real community, not a themed tourist town.
