On arrival, we were welcomed by Norman, our host for the next few days, with a big pot of tea and assorted biscuits. The family room at the back of the house supplied the quiet rest we had hoped for. The room was sufficient in size for the three of us, clean and delivering the modern means of communication (flatscreen... More

A 1930's house on the Iffley Road, perhaps a mile from Oxford City Centre. Room rather cramped - our double room was in fact a triple, so we were able to put our suitcases on the unused single bed - but we only had one bedside cabinet, and if one of us was looking for something in the wardrobe the...

We stayed for one night and it was a really good stay. The host is super lovely and served a really nice breakfast. Rooms were quiet and very clean. Would definetely stay again. Only 15 minutes from oxford centre. Easy to walk.

Very good value for the money, located about a 25 minute walk from the center or short bus ride. The rooms are generally small and the walls are thin. So if that is important then take note. The breakfast is good and the owners are very helpful.

Having just completed last leg of first stage of Shakespeare's Way we were very pleased to find such a welcoming host and such good accomodation. The house is deceptively large (looks quite small from road) and our room was very clean with a spotlessly clean en-suite. Our only disappointment was that the shower lacked any power and was cold (the... More

Stayed here just the one night fresh from Heathrow via Hertz rental car. Had no UK phone yet and organised our booking via eMail - easy. Twin room overlooking Iffley St. with off-street parking. Short 10 minute walk to the heart of Oxford town, and also right on frequent bus service. New hosts Lisa and Norman Forman only too friendly... More

I had booked the double en suite for myself and my partner, but they upgraded us to a larger room for free when they saw I was booking from the States (they anticipated a lot of luggage, and wanted us to be comfortable -- also it is January and not tourist season so they had room). They were so welcoming,... More

Hi I stayed in the small room at heather house, which is small but £48 b and b in oxford is good. Room not suitable for anyone taller than 5ft 6 but I am 5ft 3 so fine. Loo on landing and bathroom downstairs, not for the shy but robe provided. New people in charge, a little surprised to be... More

It was my third time staying at the Heather House and I felt as welcome as I did before. I stayed at the single room and though it was quite small it was just perfect for me. The Heather House is clean, comfortable and quiet and the lovely hosts did their best that I had everything I needed. Location is... More
