The property was very well placed in a lovely village. Shops and pubs in the village. Very close to Oxford. Would certainly stay again if in the area.

Hosts were accommodating. Cottage was as advertised more than comfortable for my son and I. Kings Arms had fantastic food. Convenient services close to cottage. Bus line directly to City Center Oxford. Parking more than ample and much recommended.

Warm and cosy cottage, fabulous bus links into Oxford just few minutes walk from the front door. Village has everything you need for a short break.

We have stayed at Jenny and Martins Cottage several times. This time we stayed for 5 weeks and loved every minute of the stay.
The people of Wheatley have been very friendly and those at the Kings Arms Pub very welcoming.
Wheatley is on the outskirts of Oxford so there are a lot of interesting things to do as well as it is only an Hour and a half by bus to London.

We came for a second time, and had 2 brilliant autumn weeks, enjoying the comfort and atmosphere of the well-equipped cottage.
5.0
The property was located in a nice area of the village which had more facilities than we expected, those relevant to us being a short walk away. The house was well presented and we had everything we needed. Unfortunately the weather restricted our use of the garden but overall we did not miss anything.
Our main aim was visiting Oxford and we found the nearby park and ride to be both handy and efficient. Beyond that there were some good National Trust and other places to visit in the vicinity.

Was working in chinnor and found Jenny’s cottage, Wheatley you have a great bakers just down the road from the cottage and Asda but further if you need a supermarket, the cottage was just perfect , everything you need for cooking or relaxing a great outdoor seating area and felt so private and quiet
4.0
Over all we enjoyed our one week stay in Gadbury Cottage. Everything important is provided, although two new pans in the kitchen and a new matress for the bed in the ground floor bedroom would be nice. Using the toilet can be a little bit tricky, if you are not a slim person.
Nevertheless worth a recommendation! Mrs. Steele ist very friendly!

My mother and I look at our week in Wheatley as one of the highlights of our trip. Jenny's house was beautiful and she was gracious and welcoming. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed for our visit. Catching the bus was easy and we traveled all over Oxfordshire during the week. It was a WONDERFUL stay!

Very nice cottage in the country. Exactly what we needed. Description was perfect for what we received. Only addition needed was maybe another mirror to help get ready in the morning. Would definitely stay here again.

We stayed with Jenny Steel and her husband Martin for a week. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed and took possession of the small but cozy cottage.
The location near Oxford is excellent and the daily bus connections to the famous city with its centuries-old university and architecture are exceptionally convenient.
In the garden of the cottage you can comfortably have breakfast or dinner. The place Wheatley is not exactly small, but very quiet. There are plenty of transport connections for passionate drivers. The car can be parked in the yard.
We felt very comfortable during the week and can definitely recommend the accommodation. A refrigerator and a small kitchen are more than enough if you don't want to celebrate a three-course meal every day. If the opportunity arises, we would love to come back.
5.0
Jenny was away when we arrived so we didn't meet her until the last day of our stay. We struggled a little with the weather and the shower while we were there with the weather being not quite as warm as expected. I needed to read the shower instruction booklet to master the temperature controls on the shower but everything came right in the end. Jenny's instructions for getting to the cottage were brilliant as they gave the best outcomes for negotiating some tight corners in the village.
Oxford and the Cotswold villages were great to visit but we couldn't get over the number of people that we encountered everywhere.
We went as far afield as Great Dixter but the local Waterperry Gardens proved to be easily a better investment in time and effort.
We would stay there again but hopefully would do so at a warmer time of the year.

Immaculate cottage in pretty village outside Oxford.
Excellent bus service which gave easy access to busy Oxford and then back to the cottage which was very peaceful.Everything spot on with welcoming hosts.

A neatly converted and decently equipped old building with plenty of original features and quirks. We enjoyed our stay.
5.0
Sweet little converted building tucked away out of sight in a small village with supermarket, petrol station, convenience store, butcher and baker. Sited conveniently near the A40 and M40 for access to Oxford, Birmingham, and London. Charming accommodation with just enough period features to make it quirky.
5.0
Penny’s home is perfect. Quiet, simple, peaceful with all you need. Communication was incredible! Close to the bus stop into Oxford and as a home base for visiting Cotswolds and Bath/ Wells. We had a wonderful experience and hope to be back sometime!

Great little cottage home situated 1-2 hours from everywhere we wanted to be. Few minutes from Oxford and only an hour or so from the Cotswolds and London. Very clean and comfortable and we had a lovely stay.
5.0
Very nice cottage with everything we needed. Beds were comfortable and while the cottage wasn't spacious it was big enough for the two of us. There were tea, biscuits, coffee and milk provided on our arrival. Only briefly met Jenny but she was nice

A lovely, comfy cottage, well-appointed and equipped. Small, but the space did not feel at all small with the open cathedral ceilings and open floor plan for the living space. Really nice beds and plenty of storage to unpack suitcases and settle in like home. Wished it had been warmer so we could have sat in the lovely "secret" style garden! Close to everything for convenience and the info book was super. Thanks, Jenny!!

The cottage is extremely comfortable and well appointed. It has everything you would expect from a holiday let. The location is perfect for exploring Wheatley and surrounding villages. We caught the bus into Oxford which was extremely easy with a bus every 15 minutes.
I would highly recommend.

A cozy, clean, well heated, non-smoking cottage. Quiet location while being conveniently close to motorway. Convenience store a short walk away + large Asda a few minutes drive away (can be walked). Perfect for our needs and good facilities for self-catering (for special diets). Friendly/ helpful owners (while not being intrusive).

We were very comfortable in the cottage and found the owner especially prompt to oblige when we had need of her. We particularly appreciated the nearness and frequency of buses into Oxford, being an older couple with no private means of transport
5.0
This cottage is a little gem, everything you would need is included. It’s a beautiful property, even better than the photos. So cosy yet the sitting room and mezzanine bedroom feel spacious. The village of Wheatley is really worth exploring especially the King and Queen pub. Buses frequently run through the village to Oxford, Aylesbury and Thame so no need to use your car. We would definitely recommend staying in this cottage.

This cottage was amazing. Small but with all the comfort we needed. Good public transport connection. Friendly owner.
