Providing free WiFi, parking on-site and a garden, the recently renovated property of Sandford Meadow Guest House, offers rooms in Oxford, 8.9 km from University of Oxford and 21 km from Blenheim Palace. The property features garden views and is 31 km from Notley Abbey and 45 km from Newbury Racecourse. The accommodation provides full-day security and luggage storage space for guests.

The owner (Ric) was very kind and helpful. Beautiful house, lovely rooms, very clean, felt safe, and instructions were very easy to follow. Mimi (the cat) is very gentle and sweet. She only has access to the kitchen and outside, unless you let her in to the rest of the house. Naturally, we loved her so we let her roam freely through the house (when there were no other guests around) and she even spent one of the nights with us! Honestly such a great stay and would so easily recommend and go back. For breakfast, you're a 3 minute walk from Proof Social Bakehouse (pricey but AMAZING pastries, check opening times on google maps), and 5 minutes to the bus stop to go to Abingdon or Oxford (about 15mins to get to either). Thank you!! Luis & Rick

At Sabine Barn the rooms have a flat-screen TV, kettle and a private bathrooms with bathtub or shower. The 18th century barn has original exposed wooden beams.

Sabine is a beautiful property and good location if you want to stay a bit away (and in a less expensive area) but still close to Oxford. There are a couple excellent pubs close (but not quite walking distance), and our host provided info on how to get into Oxford by bus -- no parking, bus runs to late, late night! "easy, peasy" The room & bathroom were great (lots of space and very clean), the shared sitting area (with the other 3 B&B rooms) was a nice option. We didn't partake in breakfast, but I'm sure it was excellent and it wasn't too much more.

There was safe off road parking and you could see your car from the apartment. The place was modern, clean and really well cared for. The kitchen was small but fine to cook meals we brought from home. The hobs were easy to use as was the microwave. The bed was very comfortable and again very clean. The rooms were warm throughout. The bathroom again was very clean and there were loads of thick towels ready to use. We didn't use the bus but they were very regular and the park and ride wasn't too far away.

    The room configuration that was promised on Booking.com wasn’t available but the hotel staff promptly remedied it with another solution. Beautifully handled. Also the staff recommended a wonderful Pub for dinner that involved a stunning walk through the village and across the lock. Excellent local suggestion that made our stay.

    Nice village pub,we stopped in the outside annex rooms which are basic but very clean and had everything you would need. Friendly staff and the food in the restaurant was superb at night as they specialise in Thai food. Would recommend for an overnight stay as good value for money.
