Waterfront holiday rentals in Grand Union Canal

Great place to stay love the area. The host was friendly and always there to help a wonderful find over all and I would come back again. 5 stars all around

Wonderful host, apartment, and location. The room was big and comfortable, the balcony tranquil, and the host was excellent. Located right on the greenway for great access to parks and town. If I ever come back to Oxford, I’ll cross my fingers that this place is available.

I had a fantastic stay at Fleur’s flat in St. Neots. It is in the perfect location. It is in the heart of the town, less than a minute's walk to Market Square. You can walk to everything… restaurants, shops, cafes, park, marina, train station, etc.. The apartment was as described, and the photos were accurate. It was very clean. Clean linens and towels were provided. The bedrooms are a good size and comfortable. The common space might be tight if you have 4 people, but not an issue. Check-in and check-out were very simple. I was given good instructions and the keys were left in a convenient lockbox. Communication with Fleur was very efficient. This was only my fourth experience using Airbnb, but I would say by far my best experience. I highly recommend this space if you want to be in St. Neots. I hope to stay here again someday. Thank you.

Had a great stay at this top floor apartment. Great views onto the canal basin and ducks, geese and swans. Easy communication links as close to A421 east west road through Milton Keynes. Great food at Ye Olde Swan. A visit to Bletchley Park, which is very near by car, is highly recommended. Easy to find and park. Great communication from Scot. AC unit very useful.

I really enjoyed my stay at Karl's flat. It had a separate kitchen & bathroom. It was very easy to find and get checked in. It was very easy to walk to various places we were visiting. Karl was happy to recommend somewhere we could keep the car over night etc. I loved the fact we could see the Thames outside our window and on our last morning we walked to a lovely cafe called The Paper Boat. Thank you so much.

We loved this spacious flat by the river side. It was very handy for everthing we wanted to do in Peterborough. Had the weather been warmer, we would have used the outside patio/balcony. Would defintely want to say here again if we were in Peterborough.

Thank you, we had a lovely stay in Oxford. It was a short walk to the center, with a nice walk by the river. The apartment was well equipped, clean, great beds. Bujar was very responsive and an excellent host.

The location was great, close to Christ Church and the Main Street. It was peaceful and adequate. Thank you Mariano.

What can I say… quite honestly the most beautiful home we’ve stayed in (and we’ve stayed in many). The house was absolutely stunning with amazing views. The host was very attentive and gave plenty of recommendations. We stayed for New Year’s Eve and saw in 2025 with our family. Our 3 girls loved exploring the garden, toys and a particular shout out for the games room. Had a pleasant surprise when we arrived to see the most gorgeous decking, accompanied by a hot tub and swim spa, a huge hit with the girls. Would definitely recommend. Thank you and happy new year!

A lovely house and a very comfortable stay

We had a great time at Paula's place! It's so lovely and cozy, in a very quiet neighbourhood, yet just a quick walk away from the station and the city centre. She even organized a high chair for our baby, and welcomed us with everything for a wonderful breakfast. We couldn't use the garden as it was too cold, but it looked wonderful, too - the perfect place to relax after a long day out.

We really enjoyed our stay. Some practical improvements had been made since our last stay, in particular the new teapot was very welcome!

We had a wonderful time staying at Cathy's place over Christmas. It's a very comfortable house, exactly as described and photographed, with everything you need to feel at home. The kitchen is set-up perfectly for multiple cooks (super helpful at Christmas!) and family meals. The upstairs living room is bright and cosy. The bedrooms are quiet at night. All the appliances were easy to operate and everything worked as it should. Domino is friendly and easy to look after. Great location, a few minutes walk from the station/town and with lovely access to the river. We'd definitely stay there again!

The house , garden on the river and the area near the meadows and walking distance from Oxford town center is idyllic and relaxing and perfect

Stayed for a few nights we also we were working in the area nice house

We were five cousins who meet up annually. This was the first time we had used an Airbnb and West Farm Cottage was an excellent choice. The house and gardens were stunning. It was very clean throughout with comfy and clean beds. The open plan kitchen had plenty of crockery and glasses. We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the beautiful garden. Booking and check-in was quick and efficient. The two downstairs ensuite bedrooms are ideal for anyone with mobility issues. We did wonder if a grab rail perhaps in one of the showers might be a good idea? We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to family and friends. Many thanks David.

We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb in Oxford. The location was perfect—just a short walk to Westgate, the train station, and several great cafes. The apartment itself was clean, stylish, and thoughtfully updated, with a pleasing aesthetic that made it feel like a true retreat. One of the highlights was the river flowing right by the property—it added such a calm, soothing touch to our stay. Highly recommend!

This is a convenient, secure, comfortable and clean flat. While the residential development is large and parking would have been difficult without the designated parking space, once indoors the flat is quiet with lovely views of the canal and bordering trees.

Lovely flat, relaxing location and quiet on the riverside of the flat, slightly noisy on the street side until the early hours due to the town centre location, not an issue if cool enough to have the windows closed however. Location for town centre really good, restaurants, cafe Nero, Costa M&S and Waitrose all a 2 minute walk away, including bus stop for trips into Cambridge/Bedford. The Flat itself was a complete home from home had everything i needed during my stay. Communication from Fleur was really good. Would absolutely book again when visiting friends in the area.

A great apartment overlooking the river and when the sun shone it was great to open the living room doors open to admire the view. Walkable to St Neots (approx 25mins) along the river. Off road parking for 2 vehicles and close to the A1

We had a short stay of only two nights and didn’t really get around to using the many amenities provided, but never felt we lacked for anything that we did need. House and bed were comfortable, bathroom shower fixtures were easy to work. Good stay.

Evie's place was the perfect location - right in the heart of Oxford but very quiet on a private street. The apartment was perfect for our group of four women. Highly recommend!

Excellent location, perfect for a few days and probably longer, very helpful and responsive host. Good location for walking to bars, restaurants, local stores and also enjoyable walking, running options along the river and nearby parks . Perfectly good ammeities and fittings in the unit. Will definitely consider this again on future visits.

My daughters had a lovely stay at Fleur’s property. It was a great base for them over the Christmas holidays. Having a Christmas Tree made it feel like a home and they will happily return. Thank you so much for your kindness and Happy New Year!
