There are buses just a few minutes away to the city centre and also to London, Heathrow and Gatwick airports. There is one single available and there is also a lovely bright and airy en-suite attic room. Both rooms look out over a pretty garden. The house is spacious and we have always enjoyed meeting people from other countries. We are able to offer an evening meal as well if required.

Tony is 62 and enjoys sports, photography, travel, learning foreign languages, television, and science. He speaks English

Sue and Tony were very kind and always helped with maps and routes. Unfortunately the accommodation in their house wasn’t so great.
The ensuite room was uncomfortable for a long stay, small for 2 person, low roof with a lamp down the roof always bumping our heads, completely full of the family own stuff, everywhere: only one drawer for us, we had to leave the rest in our luggages for two weeks on the floor. The rest of the house was unfeasible, full of stuff, everywhere. When we arrived there was almost no centimetres to walk in and so was for the rest of our stay. I did mu own cleaning.
They are great person, but maybe they should have hold out on our request of long stay.Host reply

I absolutely enjoyed staying with Sue! She was very welcoming, friendly, helpful, and her cooking was very good. She accomodated me as much as possible and I´m very grateful for the experience of staying at her place. I´d definitely come to stay with her and her family again.

Sue's home has a good location -easy to go by busses. They have nice garden and space enough. They have lovely people around and the whole family is kind and energetic. We enjoy our staying and recommend all other visitors in Oxford.

Esperienza positiva considerando la posizione della casa ad Eadington, vicina alla fermata dei bus che portano in centro, provvista di fermata dei bus che vanno e vengono dagli aereoporti , casa grande, camera graziosa e soprattutto famiglia accogliente e disponibile
