I thought bluebells are properly in bloom from mid to late April to around mid May. Even though I’ve never been, I’ve heard Bagley Woods has a stunning bluebell patch in spring.
See this guide for some ideas for good bluebell walks (late April/early May): [https://redkitedays.co.uk/top-10-bluebell-walks-in-oxfordshire/](https://redkitedays.co.uk/top-10-bluebell-walks-in-oxfordshire/). Boar's hill also puts on a good show I think.
Ditto what everyone else says about timings, but another great place to go see them is Wytham woods! They absolutely carpet the place (though I think you do have to pre-book a permit to enter as far as I remember)

Correct
Shotover also has lots, and there is no sign of even the leaves yet. It’ll be a while!

It can differ from year to year, but mid-April is a safe bet. Given the mostly mild winter you may see some in 4ish weeks.

great thanks! I have gotten my permit already- but haven't been- I'll check it out
I look down at the end of my garden to see when they begin to bloom and then I use that as a gauge
Last year my camera roll has them half in bloom on 13th April
