    The house is perfectly situated for a stay in Oxford. We loved the house itself - well equipped, and plenty of space inside and out. Communication was excellent and we felt very welcome. Being able to stay here undoubtedly enhanced our family holiday.

    I was a guest at 33 Observatory St. in January, February and early March while I was a visiting researcher during Hilary term. The house was perfect for me, my wife and our guests. When we had people over we used the excellent kitchen with two ovens and microwave, dishwasher and convection stove top. We twice had dinners for eight and were able to seat everyone comfortably at a great table by the door to the garden. When we had evenings at home we spent them by the fire in the lovely snug room at the front of the house. The vibrant neighborhood of Jericho was a pleasure as well. Literally two minutes’ walk away were two great cafés, one with a fine deli, plus a great Greek deli and fine Indian restaurant, a superb bistro and a lovely pub. I loved best the separate small house at the bottom of the garden – a ten by ten foot warm writing room with one wall of glass – a perfect retreat which I shall miss very much. Our hostess, Rosie, was tremendously helpful and welcoming. When I return to Oxford I will certainly be in touch with her again.
