Storia

St Stephen's House is situated in the former monastery of The Cowley Fathers, founded by Fr Meaux Benson in the 1860s. The Grade II 19th-century building is linked by cloisters to a very fine, Grade 1 listed church designed by Bodley.

St Stephen’s College was founded in 1876 by Canon Edward King and a group of associates, as a theological college intended for graduates of Oxford and Cambridge intending to undertake mission work abroad or ministerial work at home. The college moved to its current location, opposite the Sir Roger Bannister Running Track, in the 1980s having outgrown its earlier buildings.

The House motto is ‘Video caelos apertos’ (‘I see the heavens opened’), St Stephen’s words from Acts 7:56.

Cibo & bevande

Tea and coffee-making facilities are available in all guest rooms. Bookings include a cooked breakfast with continental options available in the bright Victorian Dining Hall, served daily 8am-9am (9:30-10:30 Saturday Only).

 
Due to the religious nature of this college and its students, on Fridays during term, a vegetarian breakfast is offered, typically in the form of freshly cooked pastries. 

The College is a short walk from a wide selection of restaurants, cafes, pubs and supermarkets.

Terreni & Giardini

Set in private gated grounds, there is a large lawn where children can play and another peaceful cloister garden with chairs and tables where you can relax in the sun.

Fantastic (solo) 3-night stay at St Stephen’s. As soon as I entered my room, it felt like a safe space – I knew I’d enjoy my stay. Simple room with wash basin & deep window view across courtyards. Shower/toilet v close. Great dining hall breakfast. Friendly staff. A really quiet stay (apart from large group of Americans one day, intrusively loud at breakfast & the evening). I spent the best time in the Cloister garden sitting under Medlars reading. No one else there. Perfect. Would def return.

It was the first time we booked a staying at a college and we rate this fist experience excellent! The booking and check in procedures were easy and very much detailed. The room was spacious, clean and silent, towels fluffy. St Stephens is an historical building bringing back memories from school time. The location was great as we could park the car nearby and still walk to the town center (we love to walk but, in case, buses were very frequent). Very good value for money, recommended!

The room was the largest we had in England and having the king bed was a treat. There was lots of space for luggage and hanging clothes and jackets. It was quiet, clean and comfortable. The location is great close to many restaurants, stores and bars with many transport options for central oxford.

I was made very welcome and it was an excellent place to stay at. It also benefitted from being close to regular bus services and local shops and places to eat.
