Pretend you're an Oxford don for the weekend at this spectacular garden-level Victorian home in the heart of the world-famous university city. This apartment is steeped in history and has some gorgeous original features, including spectacular bay windows in the living room, an ornate stone fireplace and buffed wooden floors. But the styling is undoubtedly modern here, with an almost Scandinavian touch. We love the muted colours - creams, eggshell and dove grey - with the odd pop of colour in the bedrooms (check out the super-soft orange bedding) and geometric print furnishings in the living room. We can imagine a spectacular dinner party held at the industrial-style dining table, with its wooden top and steel legs, before retiring in the living room to admire the black and white Jackson Pollack-style artwork over a glass of wine. This home is in Summertown, Oxford's most bohemian neighbourhood, and well-known for its organic wine bars, buzzy restaurants and independent shops. The city's main sights - the university, cathedral and punting on the river - are all a 10-minute walk away.

Steeped in history yet thoroughly modern, this Grade II-listed cottage is heaped with country-chic character. In the open-plan living space, a soft sofa invites you to take the weight off your feet – ideally with a cup of tea or glass of wine in hand. After riffling through the book-stuffed shelves, head into the carefully conceived kitchen to chop, season and assemble dishes as your hungry companions wait eagerly in the bright dining area. 

Outside, a patio garden filled with plants and birdsong is the perfect spot to sip an espresso before exploring your surroundings. A thirty-minute walk or ten-minute bus ride places you at the Ashmolean Museum, famous for its collections of art and archaeology. Stroll around the University Parks and Christchurch Meadow on sunny afternoons or broaden your history knowledge at Oxford Castle. When it’s time for dinner, check out the restaurants, pubs and bars that cluster around Summertown and Jericho.

Highwayman’s Cottage

Child Friendly

Bespoke interior design and far-reaching countryside views await at this delightful Oxfordshire escape.

The open-plan design of much of this home makes it ideal for spending time together, whether you visit as a family or a group of friends. 

The Country Life

Escape the tourist traps of central Oxford at this smart apartment set in a leafy suburb that's just a 15-minute journey from the centre. While this serviced apartment may be part of a purpose-built, modern building, it feels surprisingly homely, and the Juliet balcony and shared gardens are a nice touch for any downtime. For local amenities, head to nearby Summertown's local shops and restaurants (half a mile on foot) or the bohemian neighbourhood of Jericho, just a 20-minute stroll away.

Just a few minutes from the university, we're not exaggerating when we say this 17th-century home places you in the heart of Oxford. Spread over three floors and with each room having its own ensuite and ultra comfy mattresses, you'll enjoy plenty of time to yourselves here. The unique design of the living area, where floral patterns abound, makes for a memorable spot to socialise, while the shared garden allows for alfresco dining – weather permitting, of course. As a bonus, two bedrooms offer views of Oxford Castle, while the excellent location means you can easily explore the rest of the city's attractions – museums, shopping, theatres and more are all a short walk away.

Diamond Life

Built in 1916 as housing for English Railway workers, this modern townhouse now sits in a beautiful location near the river. Opposite the somewhat iconic Osney Power Station – the first powerplant in Oxford – it's also within walking distance of some of the finest bars and restaurants. The house is modern after a renovation in 2017, where the addition of skylights also brightens the home. The garden is a nice bonus here, where garden furniture and a barbecue occupy the deck in the backyard.

In a city as historic as Oxford, famous buildings and heritage sites are around every corner. You'll find this cosy apartment on one of the city's most iconic and picturesque residential streets – noted figures like Harriet Shaw Weaver, John Edward Campbell and Sir Richard Doll all called this road home. It's the perfect spot for exploring this scholarly area, as Oxford's bustling centre and its array of pubs, landmarks and colleges are just a few minutes away by bus (or a twenty-minute walk if you want to stretch your legs). After a long day filled with sightseeing, book browsing and delicious eats, come home and unwind in this stylish apartment. Sink into the sumptuous sofas with a glass of wine and a good book, whip up a meal in the sleek kitchen or, when the weather is nice, retreat to the private garden for alfresco drinks in the evening sun. We love the traditional, sophisticated style inside – features like the original fireplace have been lovingly preserved, but white walls, gold accents and a stylish contemporary kitchen keep things modern. Whether you're snoozing in the comfortable bedrooms, relaxing under the rainfall shower or working remotely at the desk, this Oxford flat is sure to have you feeling right at home in no time.

This family home is well-located to explore one of England’s most beautiful cities. Though parts of the house could be freshened up a bit, you still have everything you need here for a comfortable stay, including a nicely sized garden with a couple of seating areas – perfect for enjoying a family barbecue. Besides, you’ll want to make the most of what this historic city has to offer. A thirty-minute walk or twenty-minute bus ride takes you into the heart of Oxford, adorned with its iconic colleges, Gothic buildings and a plethora of eateries. 

The Fiddlehead

This Victorian townhouse has been renovated into a modern, stylish place to stay in Oxford. It’s a five-minute walk from the train station and just ten minutes from the historic centre of Oxford, where you can explore museums, shop for souvenirs, and dine out. Despite being centrally located, this townhouse is on a peaceful road, so you’ll be able to unwind here. We love the contemporary, cool kitchen and dining space, the heart of the home, and the fuss-free bedrooms. There’s even a garden to spread out in in summer. 

Oxford Aura

This home is just as charming as the idyllic town in which it sits. The interior eschews minimalism for full-on floral patterns, characterful pieces of botanical artwork and vintage-inspired furnishings — can you honestly say you weren't happy to see that four-poster bed?

While the kitchen may be on the smaller side and lacks a hob, oven or cooking facilities, fortunately, there are plenty of restaurants in Woodstock, from a brasserie to less formal pubs. In addition, Blenheim Palace and its surrounding parkland can be entered in three mintues' walk from your front door. Further afield, the walking routes and viewpoints of the Cotswolds AONB can be reached easily in the car.

Masterpiece

In the idyllic Oxfordshire village of Stanton St John, this red-roofed barn conversation is the best of country and city. It may be a rural base, but the charming centre of Oxford is a fifteen-minute drive away. Stanton St John has everything you need with a village shop and farm shop within a five-minute walk. Plus, meandering country walks are right on your doorstep. The home itself has been beautifully designed, with honey-hued stonework fitting in with the rustic aesthetic and a wooden pergola dappled with climbing plants shading the outdoor seating area. Just next to this there’s a big lawn which creates the back garden. Glass folding doors open up to blend indoors with outdoors so you can listen to the hum of bees and smell the flowering lavender from the breakfast table. The living room is a cosy snug, dominated by the plush velvet corner sofa as oil paintings look on. Come bedtime, bedrooms in Victorian floral splendour provide a plush place to lay your head. 

Ivy & Lace

Located in a quiet Oxford suburb, 2 miles from the city centre, this contemporary apartment is just a short stroll from a choice of cafes, shops, and restaurants. You’ll have a private courtyard patio here, as well as access to a shared garden. And with the Oxford Canal and the River Thames within walking distance, you won’t have to go far to enjoy a waterside amble. When you’re ready for a slice of history, a fifteen-minute bus ride will take you to the centre of Oxford, where cobbled streets, gothic spires, museums, and galleries await.

Oxford's Edge

Behind a secure, entry-coded gate, is this impressive 17th-century house. It isn’t just us that find it impressive – it’s a Grade II Star-Listed building, standing proud in the heart of Oxford City Centre. But don’t be fooled by its long 400-year history that’s ever-present through the rich tapestry and classic furniture, this home is packed with mod-cons. With Vispring elite mattresses, rainfall showers, surround sound, designer fittings, and so much more, this home is as luxurious as can be. 

The finishes of natural stone bathrooms and bespoke woodwork are certainly grand, but what you’ll love most is how these touches make you feel. Let yourself be inspired by the style and elegance, pulling you to work on something creative in your study. 

On sunny days, prepare your specialty in the kitted-out kitchen to be enjoyed alfresco in the delightful, shared garden, washed down with a crisp glass of wine. Or if cooking isn’t on the cards on your getaway, let a private chef wow you with gourmet meals.

When it comes to exploring the city, you’re within walking distance of all the sights and attractions. Spend a morning walking through the cobblestone streets, strolling along the whimsical canal, before taking in a dose of culture at a museum. And of course, every day is best finished off in a traditional cosy pub. 

Head of the House

Standing tall on opposite sides of a stately courtyard, these two 17th-century homes exemplify palatial elegance. With one housing four guests and the other housing eight, this is perfect for family reunions or big groups looking to explore all that Oxford offers. 

After late-morning lie-in’s in the beautiful suites – think chandeliers, panelled walls, and corniced ceilings – you can come together in the courtyard to sit down for an alfresco breakfast. 

Venture out into Oxford, starting with the Castle on the opposite street before walking to the iconic university and stopping off at museums, cafes and shops. Evenings can be spent dining out at one of the many surrounding restaurants or seeing a show at the theatre. 

Upon returning, pour a glass of wine for the last bit of socialising under the stars. From there, treat yourself to a bubblebath before getting comfortable on the sofa with your favourite movie. 

The writers might want to call dibs on one of the suites with its own study. After a day in the medieval city, inspiration might strike, prompting you to write a midnight poem about “the city of dreaming spires”. 

17th-Century Hideaway

Sitting within a traditional red-brick building on one of North Oxford's most iconic residential streets, this handsome apartment offers a lesson in relaxation and pared-back style. 

From its herringbone wood floors to its contemporary decor and ample natural light, you’ll feel positively privileged lounging in the living room – a good book and a glass of wine in hand – or catching up on work at the window-side desk, taking in the views of the leafy communal garden for some inspiration. 

With a pair of comfortable bedrooms – one of which also has garden views – as well as all the home comforts you need with a well-equipped kitchen and a sleek bathroom, you’re all set for a carefree stay. 

As for sightseeing, you’re a twenty-minute walk from the Ashmolean Museum, a twenty-four-minute stroll from the Bodleian Library, while Port Meadow is nine minutes away on foot.

Single-Level Home

Explore the historical city of Oxford from this family home – the striking architecture, pubs and shops are just a ten-minute drive or bus ride away. Situated in the village of Botley, this quiet bungalow offers a private garden and dining patio, a conservatory, and driveway parking for up to two cars. It's also a great option for those with limited mobility thanks to it all being on one level too.

If work is on the agenda, you’ll find three desks, while the laptop-friendly dining table doubles up as a collaborative workspace.

Oxford Oasis

In a residential neighbourhood just outside of Oxford, this apartment offers a comfortable home-from-home with great connections to the centre. There’s parking here, so you can easily drive into the city, or hop on the bus just outside the apartment. The patio may not be the most inspired, though it’s a nice option for morning coffee. Similarly, the kitchen is a little dated, but it’s well-equipped for nights you feel like eating in. That said, you’ll find Headington's local pubs and cafes within walking distance.

Oxford Olive

This charming, tasteful apartment is located in Kidlington, a large Oxfordshire village just 5 miles north of Oxford.

Set within the rolling hills of Blenheim Palace Park is this luxurious Cotswolds cottage. It’s a unique opportunity to stay in the grounds of one of the most spectacular stately homes in Britain (and the birthplace of none other than Winston Churchill). Perfect for a family getaway, the kids will be entertained by endless nature, plus the zip line, trampoline, and swing. The adults will feel relaxed and removed from the hustle and bustle. Sit around the fireplace and sip a glass of wine, or head out for a glorious walk with the family to Blenheim Palace. Oxford’s only a fifteen-minute drive away too.

Deery Me

Nestled in Oxford’s illustrious city centre stands this grand 17th-century home. As a Grade II Star-Listed building, every inch of the abode exudes luxury. Despite the rich tapestry and ornate finishes, this home is packed with mod-cons that make your stay extra special. 

From starting off your day in the rainfall shower to sinking into the Vispring elite mattresses, you’ll feel pampered from the moment you wake up until you go to sleep. Two of the bedrooms even get a view of the famed Oxford Castle – you get the full royal treatment here. The other two get an equally lovely view of the shared courtyard – you’ll love nipping outside in the mornings, savouring a freshly brewed coffee while catching up on the evening’s news.

Although this characterful home gives hints of its long history, you wouldn’t know it from the super-sleek, contemporary kitchen. It’s been kitted out to suit a modern preference, tempting even the most reluctant of chefs. But if you’re sticking to your word and not cooking during your getaway, a private chef can take care of that for you. 

When it comes to exploring the city, you’re steps away from Oxford’s most notable sights, although you wouldn’t think it from behind your tall security gates. Take a stroll along the canal, explore the museums, and finish off the day in a traditional, cosy pub. 

Grand Beginnings

Lift Access

At this centrally located home, guests can enjoy the best that Oxford has to offer without having to worry about the crowds. Tucked into a neat backstreet right behind the historic Oxford Castle, you can easily walk to all of Oxford's biggest attractions from here and the train station is also just a short walk away. Be sure to visit the Jam Factory, a nearby pub that promotes all local produce, for a great pint, wonderful company, and delicious food. Also, the Oxford Botanic Garden is Britain's oldest botanical gardens and always worth a visit. 

The Tolkien

In the picturesque village of Wolvercote, just three miles north of Oxford’s city centre, you will find this pretty Victorian conversion home that overlooks an ancient meadow land called Port Meadow, which runs along the River Thames and into Oxford. Some residents, even have ancient grazing rights to keep horses, cattle, and geese in the meadow, so keep an eye out for animals as you explore the area.

Enjoy leisurely breakfasts on sunny mornings in the sun-trapped and walled rear garden with its pretty plants making it ideal for alfresco dining. We would also love nothing more than to spend some time quietly reading here too before we head out for the day. Visit the historic Oxford city centre – which can be reached in just three miles by car. Or, if you have plenty of energy, then Oxford can be reached by walking along the canal or across the meadow. 

Then, after a busy day, return home and cook delicious dinners in the handmade bespoke oak kitchen with its gas double oven, and dine alfresco in the courtyard garden. 

Floral My Lovers

After many years unoccupied, this former barn was treated to a complete revamp in the late 2010s. Today, a remarkable home awaits guests visiting rural Oxfordshire. Huge glass walls and stark white walls mean that the space feels immediately bright and inviting, while there's a superb mix of modern touches and more homely furnishings — bold pieces of artwork and the sleek grey kitchen sit quite happily alongside deep red rugs and picnic baskets repurposed as coffee tables.

Out through the glass doors, there's a charming walled garden complete with a lawn, patio and neat plant beds. Bat boxes and an owl loft have also been incorporated into the property to help the local wildlife. If you fancy a little more nature-spotting, there are plenty of walking routes throughout the surrounding Blenheim Estate. The city of Oxford takes around twenty-five minutes to reach in the car, too.

Morse Code

Just outside of Oxford, this two-storey village home is a comfortable base from which to explore the surrounding area. With three seating areas, you'll find plenty of space to yourself here should you need it, while the main open-plan living area is perfect for coming together over drinks and food. Oxford is easily accessible here, being only 5 miles away, and closer to home you'll find a range of eateries, shops and pubs within walking distance, along with picturesque country walks.

Oxbridge Oaks

We dare you to find an apartment in Oxford with a more central location than this, folks. With the mighty castle right around the corner and the famous Christ Church College and its riverside meadow just a seven-minute jaunt away, it's all going on here. Look even closer, and you'll find high-end bars, gourmet restaurants, and cosy cafes on your doorstep. Or if you're in the mood to shop, the Westgate Shopping Centre is just one minute away across the road. Now, how's that for a location? 

Back at home, there's a distinct Scandi feel about the modern apartment. Guests rave about how pristine and fresh the interiors are, and we'd agree. Crash out on the highly-sinkable sofas after days gallivanting about Oxford, and if you're in town on business, there's a handy desk to keep on top of emails.

But our favourite spot has to be the two balconies – an all-too-rare treat in central Oxford where outdoor space is scarce. It's an ideal place to watch the hustle and bustle with a glass of wine and snack on the goodies from the welcome hamper that your host leaves you. It would be rude not to.

The Alice

This charming cottage is the perfect place for a couple or small family to relax after days spent exploring Oxford, just a thirteen-minute drive away. If you fancy stretching your legs, there are plentiful walks in the immediate area, as is the Seven Stars pub for when you need to wet your whistle. Inside, the living room is kept cosy by a wood-burning stove, and the kitchen has everything you need for rustling up a cooked breakfast. On sunny days, venture into the garden, where you might be fortunate enough to spot some peacocks.


The Peacock Feather

This delightful family home can be found in the quiet village of Church Hanborough, perfectly positioned for exploring Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds. There are pubs a mile away, and attractions including Blenheim Palace within easy reach. This home is ideal for families and groups of friends, as there’s lots of room for spending time together – though, with just one bathroom, you may need to coordinate shower slots. We love the open-plan living and dining space, which opens onto a pretty apple-tree-filled garden.
