Good question. Parking is a premium, personally I would use the excellent park and ride service. Pear Tree site would be ideal to the north of the city. Incidentally the museum has a real wow factor!

We went to Oxford by train and walked from the railway station to the museum. I think it's a 15-20min walk from the rail station. I think there is a carpark in front of the museum, but can't say if it's ok to use the carpark or better head for a park and ride.
Coming from Gloucester can anyone advise if any coach companies do day trips, or if not the best park and ride, have seen someone mentioned the one near oxford parkway railway station, is it well sign posted. Thank you
A:
I don’t know about day trips, I’m afraid, but, coming from Gloucester, you’ll probably find Seacourt Park and Ride the easiest. Very well signposted and easy to use. …
I don’t know about day trips, I’m afraid, but, coming from Gloucester, you’ll probably find Seacourt Park and Ride the easiest. Very well signposted and easy to use. Alternatively, drive into Oxford and park at Oxpens car park, next to the ice rink (this is what we do). Then just walk into the centre, down broad street and turn left at the bottom to get to the museum. Hope you have a great time!
