This address might not be among Oxford's dreaming spires, but ten minutes in the car will get you into the heart of the university city, after which you can wander about the college grounds to your heart's content.

We've only got kind words for the interior design, which is simple but unfussy and effective. The garden is another big plus, with plenty of room for lawn games and alfresco dining.

About Oxford
Nicknamed the ‘City of Dreaming Spires’ by poet Matthew Arnold due to its thirty-eight honey-coloured colleges, Oxford is awash with tradition, culture and its prestigious University. Whether you’re streaming down the beautiful River Cherwell on a canal boat, discovering the city’s medieval roots or dipping in and out of designer shops, the world-famous edifices gloriously consume just about every crack, crevice and cobbled avenue.
