Our Venneit Close accommodation offers 16 furnished apartments, rented by the College from the private sector for graduates. Each flat has three study bedrooms (one of which is en-suite). The bedrooms vary in size and are randomly allocated; some have double beds but most have single beds. The kitchen and dining/sitting room are shared, and each flat has a domestic washing machine in the kitchen.
The complex is located about a 10-minute walk from the city centre and a 20-minute walk (10-minute cycle ride) from Queen’s. It is near Port Meadow and Jericho and not far from the railway station, which has good bus connections to the rest of Oxford. The postcode of the flats is OX1 1HY.
Car parking is not allowed at the site, nor is access without a permit (the development is monitored by ANPR camera and the vehicle is detected as soon as you drive into the development), but there is plenty of covered bicycle parking and there are beautifully maintained communal gardens. This large complex accommodates many students from the University of Oxford and Oxford Brookes University. The contract for each of these properties is provided on a 38-week, 40-week, or 48-week continuous licence period from about the end of September (subject to change).
The flats in Venneit Close are licensed as a House in Multiple Occupation (HMO) and, due to the nature of the private sector rental arrangement under which these flats are held, they are not eligible for registration under the Accommodation Code of Practice.
