Bicester Village is located near the Cotswolds at the heart of rural Oxfordshire and enjoys a prime central location in England with exceptional transport links. Also within striking distance are renowned tourist destinations, among them the UNESCO World Heritage Site Blenheim Palace, the National Trust 19th-century Renaissance-style château Waddesdon Manor, and Oxford with its world-famous university and celebrated Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology.
Bicester Village is an outlet shopping centre on the outskirts of Bicester, a town in Oxfordshire, England. The Bicester Village outlet shopping centre houses approximately 130 stores, encompassing a range of product categories. Bicester Village is now established as a tourist attraction, as well as being the United Kingdom’s leading designer outlet village. In 2001, it was able to charge stores the highest rental of any comparable outlet shopping centre in the UK.
Designed as individually defined boutique stores facing an open-air, landscaped pedestrianised mall, Bicester Village recalls the scale and ambience of the villages of south-east England.
As of 2012, plans are afoot to expand Bicester Village by a further 30 outlets. The scheme would involve the existing Tesco store being demolished, with a new Tesco superstore constructed at a different site nearby. This would create approximately 500 new jobs to Bicester Village.
