    Host very welcoming and friendly. I was able to use an off road parking space in front of the guest house. On a good bus route to city centre, Good selection of toast and cereal for breakfast. Room clean and comfortable with plenty of hot water. I was in a very quiet room at the back of the house.

    Lovely house in a quiet neighbourhood with a great host. I spend two weeks with Melody and I really felt at home. With the busses it‘s quite fast to reach the city centre (especially if you‘re used to living in bigger cities) or — if you feel sporty — you can walk a 45 minutes through the fields of port meadow among the oxen’s. I really liked it!

    The barn is wonderfully finished and very quiet and cozy. The location is very convenient, close to Oxford city center and in the meantime in the beautiful and peaceful countryside. Donna is a great host, constantly looking after guests needs and comfort.

    Excellent location. Short walk into Oxford and for the New Theatre. Staff were great hosts. Food was excellent. Quiet location - we've stayed in central Oxford before and it can be very noisy (sirens and revellers). This was ideal. Lovely old building. Room was clean, comfortable and great location - short walk into the city centre and all the sight seeing you want.

    Very nice studio in a great location. The studio was clean and very comfortable, during the night it was very quiet even though it is rather close to a busy road. It is within walking distance of the city centre. Overall it had a very high standard for Oxford accommodation and great value for money. Friendly and very helpful host! We would definitely stay here again.

    Green Gables guesthouse is a home from home experience. Mr & Mrs Bella are fantastic hosts, lovely interaction with guests. Breakfast was great & room was exceptionally clean. Great location & only a 10 minute bus ride to Oxford City Centre. The bus stop is outside the property. My husband & myself will definitely stay here again & would recommend a visit.

    Great location: easy walking distance to the city centre, but in a quiet residential area. Andrew (the host) was terrific to us-- helpful and understanding--and he even went out of his way to get us complimentary tickets to the football match! The apartment was spacious and comfortable with plenty of light.
