Fodor's "This Victorian guesthouse in Summertown, on the outskirts of Oxford, shows flair in its decoration, creativity in its breakfasts, and attentive, helpful service. Guest rooms are beautifully furnished." Full review
Insight Guides "A stylishly decorated and furnished hotel in a lovely Victorian property within easy walking distance of the Summertown shopping parade in North Oxford."
Lonely Planet "Twelve big, bright, elegant rooms... are available at this Victorian merchant house. The fittings are luxurious, the service attentive, the bathrooms immaculate and... public transport links to town." Full review
Independent "More boutique hotel than B&B, it manages to be homey without being twee, and smart but not smart-by-numbers. The 12 comfy, triple-glazed rooms have jaunty feature wallpaper and clashing chairs"
