5 Bedroom cottage, Canal View, Parking, Kidlington, Oxford

Positive: We loved this charming old house — it had so much character and a wonderful atmosphere. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook comfortably.

Lovely place to stay to meet up with family and celebrate 2x80th birthdays. Positive: Excellent location with river, water activities, tea room and pub close by. Breakfast was not provided as part of deal.

Positive: 房子很漂亮，设施完备，外面很冷但屋里非常暖和，床上用品也非常舒服，还可以自己煮泡面吃，非常好，而且还看到非常漂亮的日出，很惊喜，后面会推荐朋友来玩。 Negative: 1）邮编其实和实际住址差一点，找的时候会有点困难。2）晚上来入住周围会比较黑，有点害怕，可以加装他一些太阳能小灯在路边。

Lovely quirky cottage, care with Aga, Health and Safety issue discovered which host dealt with quickly Positive: Stayed as a three generation extended family with 9 including one baby. The property is well located 20 mins out of Oxford, and is an old thatched house with lots of space both downstairs and in bedrooms. The property is quirky and well suited to larger group stays. Hosts were prompt and polite throughout- flexible to late changes and quick to respond to issues which occurred during the stay. Negative: There are just two bathrooms so a little short of shower/baths for large groups. The main cooking is provided by an electric Aga which takes a few hours to warm - unless you are used to Aga’s this can be a challenge for planning home cooking. We had an issue on first evening - evidence of mouse droppings on one bed (evidenced only when pulling back the bed cover) which made that bedroom unsafe to use. Hosts did respond quickly and traps were set. The next morning two traps had been sprung and we woke to two dead mice in two bedrooms. This did leave a poor experience in what was otherwise a lovely property. I have been in touch with the owners post return and they advise that pest controllers have been onsite and no further issues have been experienced in the week since we left.

Positive: The size of the property, the amount of bedrooms and beds worked well for our party of eleven. There was plenty of room/rooms for all, to share time together.
