High Hedges surpassed my expectations! The apartment had everything to truly make it home away from home, including fresh flowers in the living room and bedroom. Coffee machine, washer dryer and fully equipped kitchen with comfy lounge seating and the best bed we had in our five weeks of travel are a credit to Melanie and David’s focus on their guest’s care. Communication prior to our arrival and the warmest of welcomes on arrival make for happy and relaxed travellers. Bus stops are located adjacent to the property so if arriving into Oxford via train very easy to navigate to, or I as we did discover further afield. Plenty of off street parking available. Would definitely stay again.

Excellent apartment. Needed somewhere to stay for a couple of night's due to some business meetings in Oxford. The host was very communicative pre-arrival & even waited for me as I arrived late. The apartment was super high spec & clean with all the amentities required. Thanks so much for an excellent stay.

We had a fantastic stay. The one-bed apartment was spacious, clean, and very cosy — perfect for a comfortable weekend. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming, even surprising us with a bottle of Prosecco for my birthday, which was such a thoughtful touch. The location was great too, right next to the bus stop, making it super easy to get into the city centre. A wonderful stay all round!

A home from home.

We were in apartment A, the delux option. Checking in was easy, with a key code provided, a day or so before arrival. The property had 4 rooms: well equipped kitchen (fridged, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, toaster & kettle), bathrrom, large lounge (with small dining table) big bedroom with huge bed.
Everything was very clean and neatmy presented - a real home from home.
Croissant, fresh flowers, milk, bathrobes, coffee pods were all welcome extras.
The property was quiet and an easy 40 min walk to the centre. 5 mins walk away was a small shopping precinct.
Would happily recommend and would definitely stay again.

This is my second stay at High Hedges. The people, the apartment, the location - all are excellent. Although the place was beautiful the first time, it has been renovated since my first stay and is even more beautiful now! Being an American, I love my ice - and they even have an ice maker! Don't hesitate to book High Hedges. It is an excellent place to stay.

Had a lovely stay at High Hedges apartments. Melanie made us feel very welcome, communicated with us the whole time and gave us great knowledge of the area. It was very convenient for a young family, had everything we could need and very good location to city centre. Quick bus ride over. Will definitely stay again if coming to Oxford.

Apartment B

We were able to check in a couple of hours early which was a bonus .
We were greeted on arrival by the lovely host Melanie whom gave us info of the area and showed us on a map.
The accommodation was outstanding, the photos do not do it justice at all.
The little extras like the tea bags , milk in the fridge, fruit and croissants were all a really lovely touch.
We had planned to walk a lot and see the sights , there is a bus stop almost outside the property which gets you to the train station and then we could walk and explore.
What a great time we had in a fantastic accommodation which was spotlessly clean too.

Fantastic stay for our trip to Oxford! The apartment looks brand new and was very spacious, modern and comfortable! Easy parking on site. Melanie is a wonderful host and gave us lots of info on getting around and where to eat. Continental breakfast with tea/coffee, juice and local jams was a nice touch! Easy to catch bus into city center (7-10min) or 30 min walk. Would love to return and highly recommend!

Delightful Apartment

Delightful and very comfortable apartment. Lovely welcoming details such as flowers, fruit and nice food for breakfast. Presently impressed with the offer. I highly recommend it. Easy to get by car with access to nearby village pubs but more importantly a 10 min bus ride to the city centre. Lovely place.

Top quality

Melanie was fabulous, very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in apartment C, which was very comfortable and the decor was lovely. The cooked breakfast was great and plenty of it although there were other options if you don't want a full English. Would definately stay again if going to Oxford.

Lovely apartment with fantastic hosts

We had a great 2 nights. The owners were very welcoming and accommodating. And the room was stocked with bread, milk, eggs, yogurts croissants, orange juice, aswell as the usual tea coffee. As soon as we had settled in we were encouraged to come to the main house prior to heading into town where Melanie provided local tourist guides and highlighted attractions based on what we said we would like to do during our stay. The town is only 10-15 minute bus journey away, with multiple bus routes covering the journey. Would highly recommend

Amazing hosting from Debbie. Didn't realise the amenities that were supplied in terms of food and drinks so that was a great surprise. The property was spectacular and so clean. The bed was huge and very comfortable. It was also very close to the center with a small yet lovely walk and lots of shops and pubs on the way. I accidentally caused some damage to the property and this was sorted straight away and I was treated so kindly with understanding. Would definitely recommend! My favourite place that I've stayed.

The apartment was spotlessly clean and all furniture and fittings top quality and tasteful. Fully fitted kitchen with fridge, oven, hob, dishwasher and washing machine and all necessary cookware, crockery, cutlery etc. Melanie had stocked the fridge with eggs, ham, cheese and milk and some other bits and pieces, plus there was plenty of tea & coffee. Furniture & bedding very comfortable and all rooms spacious. Mel was very welcoming and it was a relaxing stay. Oxford city centre a short drive away (plenty of parking at the Westway centre). Highly recommended and we would be more than happy to stay here again.

10 stars out of 5 stars

Apartment A is a 5 star. Bedroom very large with king bed, walk in closet, TV, 2 bath robes. Living room has TV and tourist info, Kitchen has burners, oven, microwave, fridge and washer/dryer and is fully equipped with dishes and equipment. There were fresh fruits and flowers on the table. The whole place looked new. Melanie was friendly and helpful. We wanted to stay longer than our 2 days and thought we would make this a home base and use the train to travel to other cities but she was fully booked. This was by far so much better than all the other hotels we stayed in during our England vacation.
