My husband and I need a place to stay in July for a couple of nights either in or around Oxford and wonder if anyone has any recommendations for a reasonably priced B&B in the area.

Thanks.

What do you consider "reasonable", and will you have a car?

Yes, we have a car. I'm looking for something less than 75GBP per room (and can be on the outskirts).

Try Marlborough House www.marlbhouse.co.uk

It's just off the Wolvercote/Woodstock roundabout in north Oxford so convenient for getting to(central Oxford is no place for cars)

Another option is College House. It's about a mile or so south of Marlbourgh House and prices are a little cheaper. Also have a look at Cotswold House www.cotswoldhouse.co.uk

I can personally recommend Marlbough House but have only passed by the others.

We stayed in Woodstock, which was a pleasant village a few miles away. Blenheim Palace was adjacent to the village. Our B&B was on the outskirts of the village in a more generic housing development; it was fine, but lacked the charm of more typical B&Bs in the older sections of the village. I can try to dig up the name if you don't get stronger recommendations (it was moderately priced).
