Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Kidlington

Alison’s cottage was everything we wanted and more. Everything was in pristine condition, and it had everything we needed for a perfect weekend stay. We stumbled upon this gem and couldn’t be more grateful we were able to book it. The only downside to the trip was having to leave! Alison was incredibly responsive, which made everything even smoother. We truly can’t recommend this place enough and can’t wait to come back!

Overall it was an amazing stay. the cottage is small, but cozy and perfect for 2 people. it has some quirks, but that is what you would expect with a small and old cottage. There are no electrical outlets in the bathroom and the shower is small so as a 6'1 man, it was difficult but doable to use the shower. The grounds were peaceful and relaxing. Overall, the cottage was as expected and it was a great home base for access to Oxford and the Cotswolds!

beautiful home and lovely people. I would definitely recommend this for a spot to rest your head after a exploring oxford

Had a lovely few days at Sandra’s place in Yarnton - absolutely spotless and a perfect base to venture into Oxford from. The development is so peaceful, we didn’t hear a peep and slept wonderfully! Would thoroughly recommend staying here!

We had a fantastic stay at Marie Claire’s place. What a great little find for what we needed. We attended a concert at Blenheim palace and was a short walk. The back tavern which was recommended by the host was absolutely lovely with delicious food. We took the park and ride into Oxford which was easy. I would definitely stay again in the quirky but quaint cottage. The beds were super comfortable too! If the hot tub was an amenity it would have been 5 star plus!!!!

My husband and I are going other places in England and Europe, but I’m afraid this one will be hard to beat! It was just that lovely. This cozy guest cottage was just what we were looking for, and Georgina and Alex were the most welcoming and helpful hosts. They made sure we had everything we could’ve needed and went above and beyond what would be expected of them! They picked up that we were foreigners using the public transportation system and were so helpful (to say the least) to help us navigate that. We just loved every aspect of the stay! It’s the perfect small-town getaway or stop on your way into the “big cities” (London/Oxford). Will be back for sure!

A perfect stay for us. A quiet location and we had some relaxing moments outside watching the sunsets in the evenings. Lesley has been fantastic. We mislaid a key to the cottage and she was so quick to get us another one. So impressed. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom and kitchen were pristine and the lounge had the most comfy sofa I've been on in an Airbnb. All in all a great experience.

5 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Phillip was an absolute legend of a host! From the moment we arrived, he made us feel completely welcome—he met us in person, helped us get settled in, and gave us a great tour of the place. He even introduced us to the horses, which was such a unique and special touch. You can really see the passion and talent Phillip has put into the property—it’s not just a place to stay, it’s an experience. The space was beautiful, comfortable, and full of character. Truly above and beyond what we expected. Thanks again, Phillip, for your hospitality and for sharing your amazing place with us. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable stay!

Great host. Perfect place for an overnight stay when working in the area. This was my second stay, it is that good!

This is a beautifully appointed flat that is convenient to the Summertown Shops around the corner. The bus service into Oxford City Centre is frequent and an easy trip. This is also a good place to catch the bus to Blenheim Palace. This charming flat is on a quiet street and Francesca is a terrific host.

We came to Oxford because my daughter had to have an operation and when we got there it was like traveling from home to home. The flat was clean and tidy and felt homely. The flat was a walk away from the hospital. Umu always communicated with us and if there was anything we needed she was just a message away. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay again.

Cute, quiet space out in nature. All was as advertised and a nice spot to spend the night. Particularly liked that it was over the garage, so we didn’t have to worry about our toddler crying or making noise throughout the night. Bathroom is down a fairly steep set of stairs - so if mobility is an issue that might be a challenge.

My second stay at the flat, so already knew how to find the flat, access etc. Great location for working near Banbury. Brilliant kitchen, lovely lounge area and separate bedroom. Lovely stay again, have already booked to stay again :)

Lovely little spot, really appreciate it Victoria!

A perfect place to stay while visiting our daughter at university. Spotlessly clean, well equipped, and very comfortable. Breakfast and a good coffee machine were an added bonus. We will be back soon!

Judith's apartment is spacious, comfortable, clean and had everything we could possible have needed. Judirh responded to any messages quickly, the bed was really comfortable and muesli was provided for breakfast. It is in an attractive, quiet street with plenty of regular buses into the centre of town or walkable streets to good coffee shops and bars. We were grateful for being able to park our car right out the front. Our time here was a delight and we would certainly return in the future. Fran and Mark Australia

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Oxford. The location was perfect—just a short walk to Westgate, the train station, and several great cafes. The apartment itself was clean, stylish, and thoughtfully updated, with a pleasing aesthetic that made it feel like a true retreat. One of the highlights was the river flowing right by the property—it added such a calm, soothing touch to our stay. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay, it was ideal for my partner and I, and our dog due to the very spacious garden for her to run around in. The Annex exactly as pictured and described and had everything you’d need for a relaxing and peaceful time away. Sam the host was very helpful if we needed anything and made it easy for us to check in. We would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to stay in the area, especially with a dog. Couldn’t fault it, we will definitely be returning!

We had a lovely stay here. Katie was very helpful and responsive. The place itself was cute and cosy. Thank you.

We use Airbnb a lot. So as a general comparison I’d say great Airbnb. LOTS of communication. Very well stocked. Comfortable bed. Great decor. Central with parking. Handy for when I visit elderly relative. Likely to use it again. Quick to reply when I thought id left something behind.

Just returned from two nights and what a wonderful stay we had! Everything from booking the trip to departing this morning was perfect. Claire is a truly wonderful host, so friendly and helpful, and the retreat is stunning. Set in a beautiful part of the Cotswolds (and so close to Soho Farmhouse), it’s the perfect place to relax and unwind. From the luxury touches to the beautiful towels, everything was immaculate. The amenities are better than those in some five-star hotels I’ve stayed at. Thank you so much, we can’t wait to return soon.

Great host and accommodation, everything was perfect for a stopover between the Cotswolds and Oxford.

Great apartment to explore Oxford from, but in niece quiet spot. Very friendly and responsive hosts. Highly recommend a visit.

Been trying to book this stay for a while now and I can now fully understand why this was always booked up! Me and partner wanted a couple of nights away from the hustle and bustle of work and this place was so Peaceful and quiet for the weekend. On arrival Jane was very welcoming and a very pleasant lady to talk to. Jane went through all the instructions and provided a folder with all the local amenities which was great touch. The suite itself was perfect for what we needed, a kitchen, bathroom and sofa to watch tv, the tv was a smart TV which was brilliant as you can connect to your Netflix. Also we was provided with coffee, tea, milk, electric blanket, washing machine with softener and washing detergent-all this I regard going the extra mile! The kitchen is also kitted out with cooking utensils. I would recommend this to anybody that’s wants a chilled, peaceful break. Definitly will be booking this again! Thank you Jane!
