Hill Farm – A Favorite for Families in Oxford

Hill Farm offers six rooms located in a historic farmhouse and a separate cottage on the grounds. Each room has a private bathroom, a tea and coffee maker, and individual décor such as a four poster bed or parquet flooring. Some rooms open directly onto a garden through patio doors, with access to outdoor furniture.

The hotel sits on a working equestrian centre, making it the only accommodation in Oxford with on-site showjumping events. Guests can watch horse training and showjumping practice from the breakfast room or outdoor seating. Weekend stays often include the chance to see horse races and riders practicing jumps on the grounds.

Breakfast is served each morning in a clubhouse overlooking the equestrian centre, offering views of the countryside. The menu includes a full English/Irish cooked option, a continental selection, and a vegan breakfast. Breakfast is praised for its quality, with local produce, fresh fruit, and excellent poached eggs.

The property is 7 km from the University of Oxford and 14 km from Blenheim Palace, with a Park & Ride service 10 minutes away for city access. The grounds include lawns, outdoor seating, picnic areas, and a gated entrance with CCTV. Local wildlife such as peacocks, deer, and rabbits are seen on the property, adding a rural element within reach of central Oxford.

The hotel provides free private parking on site for all guests, with accessible parking spaces available. Luggage storage is offered, and the staff can assist with taxi booking to Oxford city centre or Silverstone Circuit. A shared lounge with a piano and board games is open to guests for relaxation.
