 By  Lynn  in  December  2022:
 This  has  been  my  home  for  the  past  two  years  and  I  have  loved  every  minute.  I  have  met  some  amazing  people  who  I  now  consider  very  close  friends.  The  house  is  spacious  with  two  bathrooms  and  an  extra   downstairs  toilet,  utility  room  and  a  sizeable  garden  which  is  so  nice  in  the  summer.  The  neighbourhood  is  great  plenty  to  do  and  very  close  to  Oxford  City  Centre.  Jason  (landlord)  is  very  attentive  and  any  household  issues  he  resolves  immediately.  You  won’t  be  disappointed  living  here  and  I  would  highly  recommend.

 By  Oscar  in  September  2022:
 I  lived  in  Botley  for  6  months.  The  house  in  Botley  is  located  in  a  wonderful  environment,  with  some  green  space  and  a  nice  atmosphere  when  waking  up  to  the  birds  chirping  and  the  eagle  that  stalks  the  small  farm  nearby.  The  local  area  is  regenerating  and  there  is  yet  another  supermarket  opening  -  so  great  location!  As  for  the  house  itself,  it  has  a  good  amount  of  space  and  a  communal  area.  The  make-up  of  people  will  change  but  I  was  met  warmly  and  the  landlord  is  very  attentive  and  diligent;  he  even  has  a  dedicated  WhatsApp  group  so  that  everybody  can  check-in  or  report  an  issue.  Overall,  this  is  one  of  the  best  landlords  that  I  have  been  a  tenant  for  and  there  are  plenty  of  interesting  characters  to  encounter.

 By  Damien  in  August  2019:
 The  house  is  really  well  situated  with  shops,  bank,  pub  and  bus  stops  within  walking  distance.  The  area  is  really  quiet  and  safe.  You  can  commute  to  the  city  center  by  bus  (<10min),  by  bike  (10min)  or  by  walk  (30min).  I  really  enjoyed  staying  in  this  house  as  it’s  a  modern  house  recently  built,  fully  furnished  with  a  very  nice  garden  that  is  lovely  during  the  summer.

 The  room  was  the  biggest  of  the  house  with  a  lot  of  space  and  a  very  comfortable  bed!  It’s  fully  furnished  so  you  don’t  need  to  bring  anything  except  the  bedding.  The  price  of  the  rent  includes  everything  so  it’s  very  convenient  as  the  landlord  is  keeping  everything  tidy  and  clean,  you  just  have  to  clean  your  own  room.  If  any  problem  occurs,  the  landlord  is  very  quick  to  react,  and  everything  is  fixed  within  one  or  two  days  (it  happened  only  once  over  my  one  year  stay  in  the  house  and  the  problem  which  was  with  the  toilets  was  fixed  within  24hours).

 Finally,  the  best  part  of  this  house  is  the  housemates.  Indeed,  everybody  is  really  sociable  and  likes  to  go  out  for  a  drink,  for  food,  etc...  or  just  to  stay  at  home  to  play  pool  (there  is  a  small  pool  table   )  or  to  watch  a  movie,  etc.  All  the  people  in  the  house  had  different  background  and  were  coming  from  different  countries  so  it  was  a  really  enriching  experience.

 I  really  recommend  that  house  and  I’m  sure  you  will  enjoy  staying  there  as  I  did  during  one  year!

 By  Marc  in  July  2018:
 The  house  is  a  comfortable  new-build,  located  in  a  safe  and  quiet  housing  estate,  in  excellent  commuting  distance  to  the  Oxford  City  centre.  There  are  several  grocery  shops,  a  pub  as  well  as  two  bus  stops,  with  a  regular  service,  within  walking  distance  from  the  house.

 The  house  is  well  kept  and  the  room  fully  furnished,   with  a  modern  double  bed,  desk,  and  wardrobe.

 The  landlord,  Jason,  is  a  friendly  and  very  helpful  person.  Moving  to  the  UK  from  Germany,  I  was  required  to  complete  various  paperwork  which  Jason  was  happy  to  help  and  advise  me  on.

 He  looks  after  the  house  and  keeps  it  clean  and  tidy.  This  includes  a  good  size  garden  which  is  lovely  in  the  spring  with  flowering  tulips  and  lavender  as  well  as  a  cherry  tree.  I  enjoyed  relaxing  with  Jason  and  the  other  housemates  on  the  garden  bench,  eating  dinner  outside  and  barbecuing  when  the  weather  was  nice.

 The  housemates  are  a  mix  of  different  nationalities  and  backgrounds.  They  are  working  professionals  who  contribute  to  a  peaceful  and  quiet  atmosphere.  I  really  liked  getting  to  know  them  all,  they  were  the  perfect  balance  of  being  helpful,  friendly  and  sociable  whilst  respecting  my  privacy  and  giving  me  time  alone  if  I  needed  to  revise  or  do  work.

 By  Rachel  in  July  2018:
 The  location  of  the  house  is  excellent,  access  to  the  town  centre  with  multiple  buses  and  the  property  has  parking  available.

 Living  in  the  house  was  great,  everyone  really  friendly  and  professional  and  liked  to  socialise  too!  The  house  was  always  clean  and  well  kept  and  if  there  were  any  small  issues  they  were  fixed  immediately.

 By  Marios  in  Dec  2017:
 1)  house:
 During  my  stay  in  the  current  property  I  was  impressed  by  the  comforts  of  the  house,  as  well  as  its  perfect  location  -close  to  bus  station  and  shops.
 Moreover,  the  house  offers  great  heating  system  and  lots  of  storage  space.
 The  housemates  were  all  professionals  and  the  relationships  between  us  were  harmonic  and  warm.
 Last  but  not  least,  the  area  of  the  house  is  quiet  and  safe,  offering  a  peaceful  overall  stay.

 2)  landlord:
 The  landlord  of  the  property  is  very  pleasant  and  friendly  person,  always  looking  after  the  house.
 Every  weekend  he  takes  care  of  cleaning  the  shared  areas  of  the  houses,  making  life  easier  for  all  the  tenants.
 He  is  organising  regularly  "housemate  events",  either  in  the  form  of  sports  or  dinner,  creating  in  that  way  a  happy  atmosphere  amongst  the  tenants.
 It  was  a  pleasure  to  meet  him  and  stay  in  the  property.
