I had a very comfortable and memorable stay. The house is clean, the room comfortable and provides an easy access to the city center. Most importantly, it provides a homely atmosphere which is why I concluded that I made an excellent choice in picking the place. Barbara is a very accomplished person and a good host.

No privacy , this was a house NOT a B&B , and should not be classed as Bed & Breakfast . I am not happy parking some 100 yards away !!! As the owner stated this is my home , not a Hotel. When parking near this B&B had to removed my car before 7.30 am . All I paid for the was a bed.

A totally inaccurate review as the host prides herself in offering a clean, comfortable and affordable place to stay in the middle of Oxford. It is clearly described as a private B&B - ( dictionary.com: "an accommodation offered .. especially in a private home, consisting of a room for the night and breakfast the next morning for one inclusive price.") The details states that there is no parking - however the host - at a cost to herself, provided the visitor with a permit as the wife was struggling to walk. There was no need for their car to be removed. They refused breakfast as they had to leave early for the hospital. If the guest wanted to book a hotel then that is what he should have booked at quadruple of the rate paid.

Great room, wonderful host.

My room and the house in general are very tastefully furnished and comfortable. Bárbara tríes to offer a really homely atmosphere. The kitchen is very big and well equipped which allows for cooking and having meals together. Cowley Street, a very lively Street full of shops and restaurants, is just around the córner. The center of Oxford is in walking distance.
I highly recommend this accomodation,

It is a very nice private house with a very kind landlady who allows you to feel comfortable and also use all what you need for your daily life (with the proper induction). The house is 30 min walking from the city centre.

Excellent time spent with a lovely and accommodating host, and a great place as a base to visit the rest of Oxford from. Relaxed time, while i sorted out rental accommodation, and would definitely recommend. Cowley location facilitated excellent transport links and walking distance restaurants!

This accommodation is situated in a quiet turning just off the Cowley Road, which is very well served by buses and has a good choice of places to eat. The hostess welcomes you to her home, which has some very interesting features, and we enjoyed our discussions of many topics. The arrangements are very flexible and give the visitor plenty of scope with their itinerary.

Due to work I spent a several weeks at the artists cottage and I found it very comfortable and good value for money. The host is very nice and very accommodating, breakfast is quite sufficient to start your day. My room was very comfortable and very clean with excellent wifi connection. Location was ideal, very central to everything. Would definitely stay there again.

I stayed almost 2 weeks at the artist's cottage and would recommend it as a nice place to stay. It was clean and everything (including wifi..) worked well. Breakfast (that the visitors prepare themselves) was of good quality and the host would make a effort to provide things that the visitors wanted. I enjoyed the conversations with the host and the other guests as well.

We spent 5 lovely days with Barbara. We really felt at home and we enjoyed very funny stories about the English way of life and the bad weather. I would definitely recommend to go the Artist cottage! Moreover we'll keep in touch for a future "funny stories party" ;-)

We spent 2 nights in Barbara's home and she was extremely accommodating and friendly. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The bathroom was shared but this wasn't an issue. Breakfast was a varied continental style affair which we shared with her and another guest with interesting conversation. The location was great for us, visiting our daughter, near friends and plenty of restaurants nearby and the walk into the city took us only about 15-20 mins. We would definitely stay again (although next time we will book through Abode and not Booking.com!)

My sister and I really enjoyed our weekend stay in Artist Cottage. All areas were very clean and beautifully furnished/decorated. The bed was comfortable, a lovely breakfast was provided, the company of the host and other guests was pleasing, and the surrounding area quiet, pretty and well situated. Would recommend.

Very pleasant place to stay in Oxford. It´s quiet and calm even though not far from the town center, it´s possible to get everywhere on foot. The host is very kind and provides wonderful breakfasts :-)
