Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Oxford

Close to the centre. Well served by buses. Two nice parks nearby. Lots of interesting cafes and restaurants, on Cowley Road. Fairly large supermarkets, and some useful shops in Templar’s Square nearby. Quiet road with a friendly local shop. Friendly neighbours.

Love the area, felt like it was getting more interesting

within walkable or cycling distance to Uni/hospitals/shops at Headington or Cowley
CO-OP within 5 min walking distance.
Neighbour can be noisy due to regular parties
Driveway often occupied or blocked by neighbours

Good location for services and the city

Convenient for me. Near uni. Near shops. But broken glass on the road. But near park. So yeah

I could write even more about how bad of a landlord Oliver Brocklehurst was and am sure still is, but to end the review on a positive note, the area of the neighbourhood is wonderful. It is in the perfect location for healthcare workers, and the local amenities are great. Right across a bus stop as well. If you're going to rent a room, do it from another landlord in Horwood Close.

Residential, quiet, safe, not man amenities, far from any nightlife.

Very near bus stop to take you into the city centre and near to shops and supermarkets. Lovely, peaceful area, nice places to walk and run nearby.
