Oxford City Stay – Cooper House

About this property

Oxford City Stay – Cooper House is a spacious house in Oxford, Oxfordshire. Set on a well-connected route and ideally suited to families and groups of friends looking to explore both the city and the surrounding countryside of the Cotswolds. Arriving at the property, pull onto the private driveway where there is space for three cars, before making your way inside to begin your stay. From the outset, the scale of the house is clear, with generous proportions carried throughout, while to the rear an enclosed garden with lawn and patio decking provides an inviting outdoor space to return to. Step into the open-plan living space, where your group can settle in and make the most of the sociable layout.

In the sitting area, sink into one of the two sofas or take a seat in the armchair, with carpeted flooring, a rug underfoot, and artwork on the walls creating a welcoming setting to gather around the TV. Move through to the dining area, where a breakfast bar with stool offers a relaxed spot for morning coffee or a quick bite, before heading into the galley kitchen, finished with tiled flooring and equipped so you can prepare meals with ease, whether cooking together in the evening or setting up breakfast before heading out for the day. When night falls, the bedrooms provide a flexible arrangement for a variety of group setups.

The family room offers a practical space for those travelling together, while the twin rooms can be arranged into super-king-size beds depending on your needs. Two rooms benefit from en-suite walk-in showers, giving you the option to freshen up in your own space, while the main bathroom invites a long soak in the bath or a refreshing shower after a busy day exploring. Start the day by stepping out into the enclosed rear garden, where you can enjoy a morning drink on the patio while others make plans for the day ahead. With regular bus routes running nearby, getting into the heart of Oxford is straightforward, and local transport options make it easy to move around without hassle.

A shop is just a short walk from the doorstep, with a pub also within easy reach, making it simple to pick up essentials or head out for an evening drink. Head into Oxford and discover a city rich in history and culture, where you can wander through the Ashmolean Museum and browse its extensive collections, step inside the Bodleian Library to admire its architecture and heritage, and stroll through the university colleges with their historic quads and gardens. A little further afield, Blenheim Palace offers impressive state rooms to explore, landscaped parkland to wander through, and lakeside views that invite a slower pace.

In the opposite direction, the Cotswolds AONB reveals rolling hills and picture-postcard villages, where you can walk along country lanes, pause in traditional tearooms, and take in far-reaching countryside views that define this much-loved region. Oxford City Stay – Cooper House offers a well-placed base for enjoying both city attractions and the surrounding Oxfordshire landscape.

Oxford, the oldest university city in England and known as 'The City of Dreaming Spires’ has an abundance of prestigious attractions, namely the 38 colleges of the university, the oldest university teaching room, Bodleian Library, Ashmolean and Pitt Rivers Museums, and Botanic Gardens, as well as playing host to many festivals and markets. Enjoy a 'punt' on the River Cherwell, take a boat trip on the River Thames or visit the many individual shops, riverside pubs, cafes and the ancient buildings that this charming city has to offer. Blenheim Palace, the birthplace of Winston Churchill and a World Heritage Site is just a short drive away where many walks can be enjoyed around the Capability Brown landscaped parkland, great lake and the beautiful village of Woodstock. Also close by is Henley-on-Thames with its annual Royal Regatta, attracting thousands of visitors each year to watch over 200 races on this charming part of the river. Cotswold Wildlife Park, one of the most beautiful in the country, is also worth a visit and is home to many rare and endangered species, and why not visit the many attractive Cotswold villages in the area? A little further afield Stratford-upon-Avon, birthplace of William Shakespeare, Warwick with its magnificent castle and Royal Leamington Spa make a lovely day out for all the family, plus London can be easily reached by coach.
