Clean, new appliances, easy check in. Only complaint was that it was advertised as 2 bath unit. The 1/2 bath on the ground floor was inconvenient to the bedrooms and not sufficient as all had to shower in the upstairs bath.

This is a great house to stay when visiting Oxford. Only a short 15 minutes walking distance from the city centre. Spacious, clean, tidy and the area is quiet. The only thing that I would point out though is that there is only 1 bathroom & a separate toilet not 2 bathrooms as mentioned in the description.

Très bon plan pour loger quelques jours à Oxford
A une dizaine de minutes à pied du centre ville, la location est sympa et très bien équipée. Chouette quartier également. 2 remarques : on annonce 2 salles de bains alors qu'il n'y en a qu'une seule, et la douche passe régulièrement du chaud au froid sans crier gare. N'oubliez pas non plus vos adaptateurs pour prises de courant, car il n'y en a pas. Pour le reste, à recommander !

Beautiful and Well Located Home
We loved the location and the layout of the New Cardigan home. Great space, very convenient to the railway station, and an easy walk into the center of town.
Two issues keep us from giving it Excellent marks:
1. The parking space is actually NOT an official space and requires one to navigate from the narrow street up and over the kerb (no dip or ramp) and into an extremely tight area between the house and a bicycle parking area. While doing so, I had an unfortunate and ultimately expensive encounter with a small metal sign post which scratched our rental car.
2. The heating was out, on what turned out to be the coldest and snowiest days of the year. The management was very proactive in fixing it when we called, but it took three separate visits and we spent an unfortunate amount of time bundled up and uncomfortable when inside.

I'll start with the negative: I did not knock off a star like the previous reviewer, but see why they did. The communication prior to our stay was non-existent to the point of concern. That is something that definitely needs to be improved upon--we were given so many names, we had no idea who our contact person was prior to arrival. That said, once that was all sorted, everything was wonderful.
The home is a bit off the beaten path, but is in a quiet, residential neighborhood, a pleasant walk to the center of town and away from all the tourists.
There was no "greeter," however, the key was left in an easy to find lock box (code provided), the house was immaculate, fully furnished, the bed linens were clean, soft and plentiful, as were towels. Amenities included free wifi, coffee, tea, laundry (and detergent), hair dryer and more. The addition of a "Handy" phone was a very nice touch--we did not end up taking it with us, but was a nice feature. There was more than enough room for our family of 4 and we very much enjoyed the living space. The one day we had a car, we easily found parking right out front. There was a nice patio out back, but it was December, so we opted to stay indoors when "home." There was a TV with Netflix and a bookshelf full of books (to which we added a couple).
In addition to the improvement in communication, my only additional suggestions would be to a) explain how to lock the doors (you have to pull up on the handle--not obvious to everyone), and b) have a few extra rolls of toilet paper on hand.
Overall, we loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone visiting Oxford and would definitely stay again.

The accommodations were as good as advertised. The house was clean, comfortable and well furnished. All the appliances and other furnishing are new or fairly new and worked with no issues. It is well located for being able to walk around Oxford. It is about a 10 minute walk from the bus station, and only a little further to City Center. The neighborhood where it is located is quiet.
The only problem we encountered with the reservation was regarding communication after the booking. It took several attempts to make contact with the property management. I was advised that this was due to a computer glitch that failed to send out the pre-formatted email after booking. Regardless, after the communication problem was rectified, the rest of the rental was very good. I would recommend this property.
