Beautiful digs, what a stunning home! Guy and Alan were lovely hosts, up for a chat when they were about but also left me to my own devices too. Easy walk to the theatre or bus route/bike. Would stay again in a heart beat! My only tiny suggestion of improvement would be a small bit of dedicated fridge space - it was quite hard to find room amongst the host personal items and the other 2 company members.

Hi Stephanie. Thank you so much for this review. You are right about the fridge issue. It was just unfortunate that we had done a big shop and our other fridge was not working. We have now ordered a replacement so guests will have a dedicated fridge in the utility for exclusive use
Thank you so much for review and feedback. Hope to see you again soon. A. Xx
Such a beautiful house in a great location, and very close to so many cool cafes and coffee shops.
The hosts were kind, warm and very welcoming!
Thanks so much!

It was a pleasure to stay in this absolutely beautiful home for a few nights. Alan & Guy are friendly and welcoming, but left us to ourselves during our stay. Would absolutely recommend, and would look to book again when I'm next in Oxford.
