We loved staying at this very comfortable house, with easy access to glorious walking, fine eating and easy buses. The house itself had everything we could want for a relaxing week

Lovely cottage in a great location.

We know Oxford quite well, but staying in Wolvercote made us realise what a wonderful part of teh city this is. Great walks, a lovely local pub and excellent transport links amke it a great place from which to explore Oxford and the surroundings. The cottage was well located, easy to reach and very well equiped. Immaculately clean, it really felt like a home from home. We'll be back!

Lovely home

Wir verbrachten eine wunderschöne Zeit in diesem kleinen Häuschen. Die Ausstattung und Lage sind sehr gut. Wir haben uns Fahrräder ausgeliehen und alle Unternehmungen mit ihnen gemacht. Die Kommunikation mit den Vermietern war völlig unkompliziert und bei kleinen Problemen wurde uns sofort geholfen. Wir denken sehr gerne an die Zeit zurück.

Leafy Oxford Suburb

A quiet location out of the hustle and bustle of the city. Oxford is in easy reach by regular Buses and you walk in along pleasant canal walk in 40 mins. 3 pubs in easy walking. Well equipped but a little dated.

Thank you very much for your positive comments both here and in our in-house visitors' book. We are very glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. Our guests have generally commented very favourably on the ambience of the traditional furnishing in our cottage (antiques, persian rugs) and have relished the cosy, timeless feel of modern conveniences alongside original features. We hope we may welcome you again some time in the future.

Quiet, cosy and accessible

Our stay went well from the moment we arrived, with a warm welcome and helpful tips from our hosts. The property is comfortable and well equipped. Garden pleasant for afternoon sun. Four decent pubs in the village. Walks into town along river or canal are delightful (and bus back very handy); easy to get out of the city also. What more could one ask?

Lovely home in peaceful location

We were looking for somewhere peaceful to spend a relaxing week, which was not too far from the city, but close to the countryside as well. This was the perfect location and property and we thoroughly enjoyed our week there.
