Student homes in Headington, Oxford

Student Accommodation in Headington, Oxford

Headington is a hugely popular student area for its proximity to Oxford Brookes University and great choice of student houses suitable for groups of friends.

While it's a bit too far out from the University of Oxford to be walkable, it's only 15 minutes from campus on the bus, so if you're after a 4-bed, 5-bed or 6-bed student house, Headington could still be a good option. You'll also find some newer student halls here, too, if you'd prefer an apartment by yourself.

Headington's artistic, bohemian feel is no accident. In decades gone by, it was the home of writers such as C.S. Lewis and J.R.R Tolkien. Follow in their footsteps and move into one of the many spacious student properties on offer, where you'll benefit from being close enough to the town centre but far enough to get some peace and quiet.

Of course, there's still plenty to do in Headington itself. London Road plays host to a plethora of pubs and eateries, such as Posh Fish, CRAFT Burger and Heavenly Desserts, serving some mouth-watering sweet treats you'll find hard to refuse. Plus, the area is famous for an iconic rooftop sculpture known as the Headington Shark, a 25-foot shark diving into a roof of a home on London Road.

With its mini high street offering essential amenities such as banks, supermarkets and cafés, Headington's residents feel right at home and never have to go too far to stock up on their cupboards. Nevertheless, a quick drive will connect you to the city centre should you want to meet friends for a night out a quick drink on the river.
