About this house rental

The house provides a great location for visiting Oxford and historic sites in the area including Blenheim Palace. It also has easy access to London and the main London airports. The house itself is light, quiet and a peaceful place to relax.

It is tucked away in a quiet location within a busy suburb of Oxford about 3 km from the historic city centre and world-famous university. It is on a path set back from roads and has a private car parking space 20 metres from the house.

The house has an open and light ground floor with a living room, dining room and kitchen. The living room has a comfortable settee and arm chairs, and a modern TV. The dining room has a dining table and four chairs, and is adjacent to the kitchen.

The kitchen has a cooker with hob and oven, fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster, clothes washer/dryer and storage cupboards. The kitchen is well-equipped with crockery, cutlery and cooking equipment including pots, pans and cooking utensils.

The front patio has a table and chairs and provides a place to sit outside which is surrounded by climbing plants and other greenery. The patio is south-facing and is sunny for much of the day in summer. There is also a small private outside sitting area at the back of the house.

Upstairs there is a double bedroom with a king-size bed, a single bedroom and a bathroom with a bath and shower. There is also a balcony that overlooks the living room. It has a desk, desk chair and lamp, and is ideal for working in a light and attractive environment. Free wi-fi is provided and the router is in the living room.

The house is less than 5 minutes' walk from the centre of Headington where there are shops, restaurants and cafes. There are numerous food shops including supermarkets and specialist food sellers.

Bury Knowle Park is a beautiful public park about 200 metres from the house. It includes a play park, hard courts for tennis and other sports, and a café. The village of Old Headington is a conservation area that can be accessed through the park. It includes an 11th century church and many listed buildings.

Headington has excellent bus services with bus stops that are close to the house. There are regular and frequent direct bus services from Headington to the centre of Oxford and the journey normally takes about 10 minutes. There is also a direct bus service to central London (the 'Oxford Tube') and direct bus services to and from the main London airports (Heathrow and Gatwick).

The house is also very close to Oxford Brookes University, the John Radcliffe Hospital (which is the main hospital for the region), the Manor Hospital, the Churchill Hospital and the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre.

Well situated quiet family home, very close to public transport including the Airline bus to Heathrow/ Gatwick. There was a very well stocked kitchen with good appliances / utensils. Lots of information provided by the host who was very responsive to concerns.

The place is charming, very clean, and very well organized. My hosts Linda and Dave were the best hosts I’ve ever had- very kind - they gave me all sorts of information, offered to help out with arrangements, and set up the place beautifully for my week ling stay.The property is in a neighborhood called Hedington shops, a self contained neighborhood, and within an easy bus ride to the city center.My stay worked out very well. Linda was super nice- I’ll be tagging this rental and recommending it to others.

We chose the property for the location near the hospital so my husband was close by whilst I was there. It proved to be perfect, very comfortable, quiet with wonderfully caring hosts. A very well stocked kitchen with a basket of goodies as a welcome pack. We would highly recommend this property.

Linden Court was a stunning property. Very clean and comfortable. Good location. Easy access into the City of Oxford by bus. Reasonably priced and no hassle with parking. Our hosts Linda and David were very friendly and helpful. They made us feel very welcome and were on hand if you encountered any problems. Thank you both for making our short stay very enjoyable.

This was such a great stay. Location is perfect with coffee shops, cafes and a beautiful park nearby. Beds were very comfortable and the unit was ultra clean. Bus stops are within 2-3 minute walk and it’s a very short ride to Oxford City Centre. The host is possibly the nicest you will meet. She’s a gem and is very responsive to any questions.

The two story house gave a very spacious feeling. The bedrooms were separated by a hallway and as all other things about this house things where extremely well planned. No noise from neighbours or traffic even thou buses were only a 5 minutes walk away which made it easy to discover Oxford and get to the airport. Cosy pubs 10 minutes walk away. Highly recommended.
