Bicester Village Outlet Shopping

Designer Shopping all in one village? Bicester Village is a collection of designer shopping outlets located in the town of Bicester in Oxfordshire. I have been here several times and enjoy looking around. It's very easy to reach by car and there are lots of free car parking spaces outside the shiops when you arrive. You can also get here by train. For more detailed information I would recommend visiting their website at http://www.bicestervillage.com The opening hours are as follows: Mon - Sat 10am to 7pm Sun 10am to 6pm ... although again I recommend checking on the specific day you ant to attend as if it is nearer Christmas ...  Read the complete review

Bicester Village is a designer outlet centre located in North Oxfordshire. It's easy accessible by car being only 10 minutes away from junction 9 of the M40 & there is ample car parking on site, but on busy periods like Saturday afternoons this can fill up quickly. It's also a short taxi ride away from both Bicester North & Bicester Town railway stations. It contains a over 120 designer outlets with an extension to the centre recently being completed. Outlets include Calvin Klein, Ted Baker, Diesel & Tommy Hilfiger just to name but a few. The selection of products available range from clothes, shoes & accessories to homeware items. As this ...  Read the complete review

parking here is a real issue - at weekends the only parking is miles away from the shops - very strict assisted parking into extremely small spaces next to others also trying to open doors and struggle out through the small gap between cars. I felt very bullied into squeezing my car into a gap far too small, even though I explained I would have trouble getting out, the parking attendants were unhelpful and I decided not to stay (too far to walk to the shops from the car space anyway). I have been here during the week when it is less busy and have been able to park, but not to find many bargains. I always have far more success at Swindon's outlet centre which is all ...  Read the complete review

We went to Bicester Village with the aim of getting bridesmaids dresses, subsequently I had two worries, parking and getting the same dress in three different sizes. Transports; I heard that parking could be a nightmare so we got there early on the day we'd picked (Saturday of the bank holiday weekend) at 10.30 the car park out the front was 95% full but we still found a space easily. There is another car park a bit further away but we didn't look there. My friend joined us via the train and Bicester Village Taxi Bus (£2) from Bicester North station (50 mins from London Marylebone, but ticket cost her £17 with a rail card) she found it really easy to ...  Read the complete review

I`ve visited Bicester outlet a few times- mainly for the North Face shop and Ralph Lauren shops. I`ve been to many Outlet villages around the UK and i would say that Bicester is a more up-market outlet village. I say that because the majority of shops are high end designer brands. The prices are discounted, but it is still expensive. There aren`t many eating options at all which was disappointing, however there is an Italian restaurant- Carluccios which serves good food. The range of shops is ok- Molton Brown, Ralph Lauren, The North Face to name a few, but again it depends how big your credit card is. Parking is good, free and hassle free- however i can imagine it must ...  Read the complete review
