Dame's Delight was a place for women to bathe in the nude on the bank of the River Cherwell in the meadows near the Oxford University Parks opposite Mesopotamia Walk in Oxford, England.[1][2]

The site existed from 1934 to 1970, when it closed because of maintenance difficulties caused by flooding.[3]

A similar bathing area Parson's Pleasure for nude male bathing, also existed nearby until 1991.[4][5] It had been established at a much earlier date; both sites are now part of the folklore of Oxford University.

Dame's Delight inspired the title of a 1964 novel by Margaret Forster.[6]
