Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Oxford

Very close to local shops and bus stops, but honestly just choose literally any other house in the area.

n/a , the neighbourhood was fine and not the issue at all. Would live nearby, just not somewhere let by Rent Guru!!

Lovely area with lots of shops. The park nearby is a nice stroll and there’s a chippy opposite which is a personal favourite.

Neighborhood is fine. Bit of litter on the street and a big problem with dog poop, but it is okay.

Super close to Brookes Uni and in a cul de sac so quiet area. Couples and nursing students live around there.

Nice local area in the quiet back streets between Cowley and Iffley Road. Neighbours are a mix with lovely young families. A church has set up next door in the old school which should become a nice hub.

A good area. Easy cycle distance into the centre of Oxford, which has everything you would need. A decent pub and fish and chip shop round the corner.

Wolvercote is an amazing place to live. People are friendly. There is an incredible access to Port Meadow and the bus stopo is never more than 2 minutes away from any of the front doors! We loved living here.

Lovely setting. Quite remote. Good walks and parking aplenty, but not easy to walk to any local schools or amenities.

Pleasant. Friendly neighbours, although one was a hoarder with a garden full of broken down cars and electrical devices. Good transport links, good amenities, not an attractive area, but safe.
