Visited with my daughter and granddaughter to see the Harry Potter filming sites. What a beautiful building! I really enjoyed walking round and looking at it all. They were rehearsing on the pipe organ in the chapel ready for the evening carol service which added to the atmosphere.nnEntry price was reasonable, staff were friendly. You can eat in the great hall reasonable prices but we’d already eaten so can’t attest to the quality.nnWell worth a visit and I will be coming back again,
A great visit, tickets are cheaper than other colleges at £8 £7 for concessions. We were lucky enough to hear someone practicing on the organ in the church and it made this visit so much more magical.nThe eating hall is the oldest in Oxford, be warned it closes during lunch time to visitorsnnHarry Potter fans will be excited to know this was one of the many film locations in Oxford. The tree in the courtyard was where Draco gets turned into a weasel, and the hallways are also used in other scenes
To be honest I wanted to visit this place as it was a filming location for Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. The only downside is that the small courtyard where the where Draco was transformed, was closed during our visit. Thankfully we were able to see it anyway from distance. It’s a nice college to visit specially if you’re a Harry Potter fan. Other than that, it’s quite small but very charming.
Yes, it is more expensive to visit than most other collages. But it is fully worth it. Hell, it would still be worth it if the entrance was 12-13£. The collage is absolutely massive with 3 different garden areas and beautiful buildings and walls surrounding all that. I am not a hardcore Harry Potter fan. I have enjoyed the movies and that's about it. But this collage has some spots that screams Harry Potter. It is impossible not to be amazed. The dining hall apparently is the oldest and tallest dining hall in both Oxford and Cambridge, which is impressive. It is forbidden to take pictures there, but when you see the chapel wall, you will be dumbfounded, trust me. Also, the garden at the back and the city walls surrounding it are a sight to see for sure. Definitely loved going in the New Collage and truly think that this is the one you NEED to see if you are ever in Oxford.
The Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire shoot location, for the scenes where Harry told Cedric about the first challenge and where Draco were turned into a ferret by fake Professor Moody. Out of 3 places I visited in Oxford, this one is my favourite. It is not as touristy as Christ college and Bodleian library, so I really enjoyed it. It is also cheaper than the other two. No guide is available though, you only receive a brochure to help you explore the college.
