“Comfortable and convenient spot in Oxford”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 June 2013 NEW

Heather House is a convenient spot for touring Oxford. The bus stop is located right near the door, but one can easily walk from there into the city centre. We stayed in a family room that was both clean and comfortable, and was located on the first floor with easy access to a sitting room full of many travel books.... More

“Wonderful hosts, pleasant room, good location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 June 2013

We enjoyed our stay here very much. Lisa and Norman couldn't have been nicer. There is a bus stop right outside the property which makes is very easy to access the train station or town. Breakfasts were very good. Bed was very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

We stayed here for 1 night in May. Unfortunately we arrived very late and had no way to call ahead but lucky for us Lisa and Norman left a note and our room keys so we were able to park and get in to our rooms. Rooms were a decent size - one triple and one double. Our triple room... More

Thank you for your comments, Mr. Wong. It was lovely to meet you both although we didn't have time to chat. The double room you stayed is our budget room, it is £20 less than the average Oxford double room rate and the facilities reflect the price. Guests are very welcome to use the piano at an agreed time, so... More

4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2013

On arrival, we were welcomed by Norman, our host for the next few days, with a big pot of tea and assorted biscuits. The family room at the back of the house supplied the quiet rest we had hoped for. The room was sufficient in size for the three of us, clean and delivering the modern means of communication (flatscreen... More

Thanks to you, Norman is now constantly turning off the radiator in our own bedroom, even though the weather has turned cool lately! Small acts such as these do make a difference to the environment.

“Typical BnB within walking distance of Oxford centre”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 April 2013

A 1930's house on the Iffley Road, perhaps a mile from Oxford City Centre. Room rather cramped - our double room was in fact a triple, so we were able to put our suitcases on the unused single bed - but we only had one bedside cabinet, and if one of us was looking for something in the wardrobe the...

Thank you for all your valuable comments, Phil. We are indeed one of the nearest guest-houses to Oxford on Iffley Road. Our triple rooms vary in sizes and welcome many couples and families. For example, parents who accompany a young student for interviews in Oxford request these rooms rather than a double and a single. All our beds are standard... More

“Inexpensive B&B on bus line near Oxford”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2013

Very good value for the money, located about a 25 minute walk from the center or short bus ride. The rooms are generally small and the walls are thin. So if that is important then take note. The breakfast is good and the owners are very helpful.

“Very pleasant stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 April 2013

Having just completed last leg of first stage of Shakespeare's Way we were very pleased to find such a welcoming host and such good accomodation. The house is deceptively large (looks quite small from road) and our room was very clean with a spotlessly clean en-suite. Our only disappointment was that the shower lacked any power and was cold (the... More
