Stunning 3 Bedroom Oxford Retreat
Enjoy an idyllic stay in our beautiful home in the heart of Oxford! Whether your perfect holiday involves lots of countryside walks, shopping, exploring the local history or just curling up on the sofa, our home is the ideal base for everyone to enjoy!
As you come into the home, you are welcomed into the beautifully decorated living room and dining area, a great space to enjoy a lovely home-cooked meal (or a takeaway!), to while away the evening with a glass of wine and a good book! Our cosy living space, boasts a comfortable sofa, armchair and smart TV, so you can catch up on your favourite shows or just watch the fire after a busy day of exploring.
Through the dining area, we also have a beautiful new kitchen with all the essentials you`ll need to cook up a storm! We also have a lovely, light conservatory area making it the perfect space for soaking up the sun with your morning coffee or enjoying the night skies.
Upstairs, you will find our bedrooms, all newly refurbished and beautifully decorated to ensure a great night`s sleep. On the first floor, one room offers a balcony, offering beautiful views of a tributary of the River Thames, and the other boasts an en-suite bathroom. On the top floor, we also have a lovely attic room with velux windows looking out over the garden - so there will be no fighting over the rooms!
All bedrooms are also served by our master bathroom on the first floor, with a shower and a bath, if you enjoy a long soak after a busy day.
For those looking to get a bit of work done on their trip, we have a great study area in the top bedroom with a laptop-friendly desk and chair, so you can tuck yourself away and enjoy some peace and quiet.
In the garden, there is a beautiful decking area and outdoor seating so you can fully enjoy the peaceful sounds of the river flowing past. (We would just ask that you are careful outside as there is no barrier between the garden and the river!)
You will not be stuck for something to do in this area; there are some amazing walks along the river banks, and central Oxford is just a 10-15 minute walk (depending on where you are going - and how fast you walk of course!).

We had a wonderful stay. The house was everything we could have asked for, for our 1 week stay in Oxford. Close to everything, yet in a very quiet area. The view to the canal was a highlight.
We had the greatest stay in this beautiful and cozy flat. It is very well equipped and there was good space for everyone. The terrace and garden by the water is amazing where we had the morning coffee, enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and watched the ducks swim by. Would defenitely come again.
This is a fantastic house - immaculate, with every amenity. One of the best VRBO houses we've stayed in. The location is very handy for Oxford - just a ten minute walk into the center of town, easy access for the train and bus station and all of the colleges. We stayed here as 6 adults and loved it. Will definitely return.
Such a cosy home and so quiet in the backyard. Note if you are coming in from train station it is a short walk to the house - we did not know that and got a bit scammed into taking a taxi all the way around the bridge construction issue
We loved this property and our stay there. It was immaculately clean upon arrival, and check-in instructions were clear and timely. The property is clean, light, airy, and well organized. It is quiet and peaceful and yet easily accessible to everything in Oxford. Very easy access to train station, bus station, Christ Church, etc. it looks like the property was recently renovated, and it is very well appointed and decorated. Everything you need! Well laid out. Beautiful garden and little deck by the river and willows. Safe, secure, spacious and well suited for our family of four. We visited Oxford during heat wave in England, and it was stifling in restaurants and taxis, etc. However, this property had high powered fans in each bedroom and downstairs. With the shade by the little river bend, open windows, and fans, we were comfortable. Anyway…This is a fantastic property and I highly recommend without reservation!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We're delighted to hear you and your family had such an enjoyable stay and appreciated the property's cleanliness, comfort, and location. It's especially nice to know the fans and riverside setting helped keep you comfortable during the heat wave. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Oxford again soon!
