Diana's B&B is a nice, homey place with fresh though small rooms and clean bathrooms.Diana is a delightful host. She has only four rooms so service is very personalized. She personally cooks whatever you want for breakfast and chats with you as you eat. With a small, intimate group, it was good to get toknow the other guests as we... More

While organising our trip to the UK, we were excited about spending a night in an Oxford college among students; and that was enjoyable and funny... We changed mind about our next step and decided to stay 1 night more in the prestigious city and looked for a B&B. We were really lucky with Diana's B&B! She was patient and... More

Hello Christian! Many thanks for reviewing me. It was lovely accommodating the 3 of you. You and your wife in the double en-suite called 'Headington' and your friend in one of the singles that has a shared bathroom. I hope next time you are in Oxford you try me again. Best wishes, Diana More

Lovely welcome from Diana, a great breakfast - old school style B&B welcome in a modern housing estate, not what you expect. Great to get a single room, although I would have preferred to get somewhere nearer the city centre it was served by a bus route. The bathroom could do with refurbishment and I wasn't expecting to have to... More

Hello there, Sorry you weren't aware of the shared bathroom! I know it is so easy to miss things when you are looking online, so a confirmation email does go out (twice if you've booked online) and reiterates whether the room has shared or en-suite facilities. I'm afraid I'm also not planning to refurbish the bathroom. There is nothing broken... More

Diana is very friendly and flexible. Our stay was an old college friend reunion so we took the house over and she went out of the way to accommodate our requests. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spotless and comfortable. My only comment would be that the single rooms could do with black out blinds. Excellent breakfast each morning with a... More

The Land lady, Diana, is very friendly, polite and helpful. The room and the bathroom was neat and tidy. The breakfast was excellent. The only problem is its a bit of a ride during rush hour to reach the city centre, otherwise 15 mins.

Thanks for your time Chris in reviewing me and for your tip to prospective guests about the problem posed by the ring road. I am glad I am not on a main road of Oxford as it is obviously even more noticeable there and yes, we do suffer from traffic noise probably everywhere here in Oxford. Wish we all had... More

I stayed on two occasions in different rooms. Bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless and comfortable. Breakfast was better than many Oxford cafes manage. Diana was friendly and helpful. Excellent value.

The room was clean and comfortable and good value for money. Diana is a fantastic hostess and makes you feel more like you are visiting a good friend rather than staying in a B&B. The breakfast has something for everyone and the food was fresh and tasty.

Hi Joan, I am so glad you enjoyed your stay at my B&B. I don't know why the 700 isn't promoted more, as it is a very useful bus route to the hospitals here in Oxford and also to the 'other' University, the very popular Brookes University. It will be lovely to see you again if/when you need to be... More
