"We had a great time in this property, which is described accurately on the site. It is located a bit outside Oxford, but within walking distance (40 min brisk walk). You can also use the wheels in Oxford (scooters mostly available) and the X3 bus was very convenient. The reason why I docked marks is because I found the processes associated with the property stressful. Now I have been through it, I would book again. Check-in is process heavy compared to a hotel and you have to pay a £250...

The suite was nicely appointed with everything we needed. Many thanks to our host, who popped in on Day 3 to see how we were doing (and showed us how to open the garden door).
