About this house rental
The house is tucked away in a quiet location within a busy suburb of Oxford about 3 km from the historic city centre and world-famous university. It is on a path set back from roads but close to a private car parking space.
The house has an open and light ground floor with a living room, dining room and kitchen. The living room has a settee and arm chairs. There is a modern TV and free wi-fi. The dining room has a dining table and four chairs.
The kitchen has a cooker with hob and oven, fridge/freezer, microwave, toaster, clothes washer/dryer and storage cupboards. The kitchen is well-equipped with crockery, cutlery and cooking equipment.
The front patio has a table and chairs and provides a place to sit outside which is surrounded by climbing plants and other greenery. The patio is south-facing and is sunny for much of the day in summer. There is also a small private outside sitting area at the back of the house.
Upstairs there is a double bedroom, a single bedroom and a bathroom with a bath and shower. There is also a balcony that overlooks the living room. It has a desk, desk chair and lamp, and is ideal for working in a light and attractive environment. Free wi-fi is provided.
The house is less than 5 minutes' walk from the centre of Headington where there are shops, cafes, parks, the Old Headington conservation area and transport links. There are regular direct bus services from Headington to the city centre, central London (the 'Oxford Tube' bus service) and the London airports (Heathrow and Gatwick). The house is also very close to Oxford Brookes University, the John Radcliffe Hospital (which is the main hospital for the region) and the Manor, Churchill and Nuffield hospitals.

We chose the property for the location near the hospital so my husband was close by whilst I was there. It proved to be perfect, very comfortable, quiet with wonderfully caring hosts. A very well stocked kitchen with a basket of goodies as a welcome pack. We would highly recommend this property.

Linden Court was a stunning property. Very clean and comfortable. Good location. Easy access into the City of Oxford by bus. Reasonably priced and no hassle with parking. Our hosts Linda and David were very friendly and helpful. They made us feel very welcome and were on hand if you encountered any problems. Thank you both for making our short stay very enjoyable.

This was such a great stay. Location is perfect with coffee shops, cafes and a beautiful park nearby. Beds were very comfortable and the unit was ultra clean. Bus stops are within 2-3 minute walk and it’s a very short ride to Oxford City Centre. The host is possibly the nicest you will meet. She’s a gem and is very responsive to any questions.

The two story house gave a very spacious feeling. The bedrooms were separated by a hallway and as all other things about this house things where extremely well planned.
No noise from neighbours or traffic even thou buses were only a 5 minutes walk away which made it easy to discover Oxford and get to the airport.
Cosy pubs 10 minutes walk away.
Highly recommended.

This property was perfect for us in every way. Just the right size and very well appointed, with every amenity we could ask for. There were even breakfast provisions waiting for us when we arrived.
The location couldn’t be better. A short walk to a Waitrose, and to the bus stop for a short ride to the center of Oxford. A slightly longer walk (maybe 10 minutes) to two lovely pubs.
Finally, communications with our hosts were outstanding. Linda showed genuine concern for our arrival and our comfort. Thank you, Linda, for a great VRBO experience in Oxford.

I arrived at Linda and David’s lovely lodging with a foot injury and have never been treated with such kindness. Linda came by everyday and checked on me. She grocery shopped and brought me reading materials. I ordered her dinners and was surprised at the clean healthy meals she delivered each evening. Gourmet and simple at the same time. They were flexible about my arrival, possible cancellation and departure hour. It truly was the best recovery I could ever had wished for. I will return another time with my partner and I recommend the listing without one reservation.

David and Linda are excellent hosts. The flat is a little tucked away and the directions they gave were very helpful and we found it easily. It was clean and modern and had everything we needed. They went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and comfortable during our stay. There are a lot of great places to eat and get coffee just a short walk away. The bus stops are also very close by. We would definitely come back if we ever visit the area again. It is close to Oxford City Center which is where we spent most of our time.
