Traveling by train next month (no rental car) in the UK and would like to make a stop in Oxford. Hotels in city center are crazy expensive (350-400 GBP/ night), but hotels are much cheaper along what appears to be a ring road farther out from city center.

Is it reasonable to stay farther out and then Uber or bus in and out of city center? We would be there 1 or 2 nights, and looking to see the typical tourist sights. We will arrive and depart by train.

Thanks for any tips.
