Description

Florence of Oxford is a bright house nestled in the city of Oxford.

Suited to small families or friends seeking a city break, this abode boasts an enclosed garden, proximity to local amenities, the Cotswolds AONB and North Wessex Downs National Landscape.

Pull up and park the car in the private driveway, taking in the gentle ambience of this attractive Oxford neighbourhood.

Step inside, shed your shoes and make your way into the kitchen, where tiled flooring, wooden countertops and white fixtures create a bright, well-organised space.

The tiled wall brings a clean finish as you move around preparing breakfast, laying out ingredients for supper or unpacking shopping ready for the days ahead.

From here, wander through to the living/dining room where a bay window fills the room with natural light.

You can settle into one of the two cushy sofas, rest your feet on the stylish rug or sit back to watch something on the mounted TV.

The drop-leaf dining table waits for relaxed meals, afternoon board games or early evening chats as you unwind after exploring the city.

Head upstairs when you are ready to rest, discovering three thoughtfully presented bedrooms.

The main double is spacious and uplifting, with plenty of storage, a desk neatly placed for writing or catching up on emails and artwork adorning the walls.

The bed sits before the room’s bay window, catching soft morning light that creates a warm start to the day.

The second double features more artwork and calming dreaming-wall tones, offering a gentle space to relax at the end of the day.

The single bedroom is neat and bright, with further artwork adding cheerful touches to the room.

The bathroom sits nearby and feels fresh and contemporary, with clean white tiles surrounding the bath and shower over, along with a basin and WC.

Step outside into the enclosed garden where the lawn, patio and decking create a simple, welcoming spot to enjoy time outdoors.

You might take your morning tea at the picnic bench, relax with a book in the afternoon sunshine or let children play on the lawn while you unwind.

A well‑stocked shop and a friendly pub lie just a short stroll from the door, and the river can be reached on foot, offering scenic paths that weave between parks and leafy corners of the city.

When you are ready to explore further, a range of memorable places lie within an hour of Florence of Oxford.

Oxford city centre brings a world of culture within reach where you can admire impressive university buildings, browse the exhibits at the Ashmolean Museum and enjoy peaceful moments in the Botanic Garden beside the river.

You can visit the Cotswolds and admire charming villages built from honey‑hued stone, wander through scenic lanes lined with historic cottages and then pop into a welcoming pub to refuel after a day exploring.

The North Wessex Downs offer another rewarding outing where you can follow trails over chalk hills, pause in traditional villages for something to eat and take in views that stretch across rolling countryside.

Florence of Oxford offers a pleasant base for discovering Oxfordshire, with easy access to the city and the surrounding landscapes.

What guests are saying

Lovely garden, small but attractive property in a great location.

A couple of issues… in the main bedroom to the front only two windows open. Despite the fan provided, it was very warm in there. There was some mould by the windows in a couple of spots. The recycling bin was full to overflowing, and appears to be have been used for non-recyclables. Maybe label the outside of these? Also, despite booking a late checkout, the cleaner appeared shortly after 10am. We spoke to her and she was lovely about coming back in a bit, but it encapsulated the frustrating experience of trying to deal with Sykes around this. It took 24 hours for a response on the WhatsApp chat. By that stage, I had contacted the property owner company using details on the booking. They responded quickly and I paid the supplement. Sykes then replied and I shared confirmation of the payment. Then the next day I had email and SMS reminders from Sykes to pay the extra, or the booking wouldn’t be accepted. So when the cleaner turned up, I have no idea whether anyone had told her anything! It was really bad communication: slow, disconnected. I contrast that with Airbnb and it doesn’t give a good impression of Sykes.
