    Staff available 24/7? So I can call them at 3am to ask for a glass of water? Wow, how convenient. The garden was lovely, I especially enjoyed the jungle vibes and the conservatory with plants that blocked any chance of natural light. And those small towels? So charming.

    Perfect place if you own a small, narrow car and love navigating impossible parking spaces.

    The staff at the front desk were so helpful, I felt like I had my own personal assistant. The shared kitchen and lounge were perfect for socializing. And the washing machine in the holiday home saved my life.

    Oh, just a minor detail. the bathrooms were a little grimy.

    We stayed at Shark House Villa and had a fantastic time! the kids absolutely loved it and had so much fun. the house itself is spacious with three out of four bedrooms having their own en suite bathrooms. the hosts were incredibly helpful, even helping us sort out parking. the location is great, with excellent bus connections from Headington into Oxford city centre. There's also a supermarket conveniently located nearby. We highly recommend staying here!

    Nothing, all was good! 👍

    The staff at the holiday home are so helpful and knowledgeable, they practically have a 24-hour hotline! The shared facilities are great, especially the shared lounge where I got to mingle with fellow guests and swap stories. The garden may be neglected, but it's a perfect spot for a game of hide-and-seek.

    As if it wasn't exciting enough to stay at Shark House, the finishing touches left me breathless. literally.

    The rooms were surprisingly spacious and comfortable, providing a cozy atmosphere for our Christmas gathering. The kitchen had a good range of equipment, making it easy to prepare meals for our family. Additionally, the location was convenient, with easy access to the city center and a regular bus service available.

    The garden was neglected and overgrown, making it unusable. The bathrooms were tired and could have been cleaner.

    I had a fantastic stay at this unique house. The rooms were surprisingly spacious and the beds were really comfortable. The kitchen had a good range of equipment and there was even a separate utility room. The location was great as it was right on a main bus route into the city center. The hotel staff was prompt and helpful, and even came to assist us with a last-minute request. The hotel facilities were sociable and we could easily hang out together in the large and airy sitting room.

    Didn't dislike anything about the property.
