The best luxury shopping outlet in United Kingdom

With over 130 designer boutiques, Bicester Village is so far is the best luxury shopping outlet in United Kingdom. Bicester Village offers range of facilities such as luggage storage, hands-free shopping ( By using this service, you don't have to carry all your shopping bags while you shop, but you can collect all your shopping bags at the Welcome Center by the time you finish shopping) , you can collect your airlines MILES when you shop, just give your shopping receipts and most importantly FREE coffee or tea. Apart from that, Bicester Village has a contemplation (prayer) room which is very convenient for Muslim especially. There is one Halal Food stalls called Manja (not far from Gucci) that offers chicken wrap and I always go to Pret A Manger for a coffee.

So, how to get there? The quickest and easiest way to get to Bicester Village is via train from London Marylebone which takes approximately about 45 minutes. There is a bus shuttle from Central London but I never try using the bus service. My friends and I drove to Bicester once from Central London and the journey took about 1.5 hours due to traffic jam. I never like to stay longer in a car journey so using car as mode of transportation to Bicester Village will be my last option. I highly recommend for you to use the train via Chiltern Railways. The return journey costs about 25.50 pounds per person however if you are traveling with a group of more than three people, the return journey will costs about 16.90 per person for return ticket. If you are a shopaholic, looking for the best bargains in United Kingdom, shopping at Bicester Village would be a great idea for you.
