Oxford Coach & Horses

Top choice in Oxford


A former 18th-century coaching inn, this fabulous English-Mexican-owned boutique B&B hides behind a fresh powder-blue exterior, just a few metres from the Cowley Rd action. The eight light-filled rooms are cosy, spacious and individually styled in soothing pastels with exposed beams and splashes of turquoise and mauve. The converted ground floor houses an airy, attractive breakfast room.
