What Our Guests Say
We've hosted guests in Oxford for 4 years, with a 4.9/5 rating across 115+ reviews. Read more guest reviews.
"The location of the apartment is quite strategic, if you want to visit the colleges, museums, pubs and restaurants, the major shopping mall of Oxford, Westgate, parks, commute to the Gloucester Bus Station (700m away), and generally reach on foot any place worth visiting in Oxford."
"This apartment was everything I needed for a productive and comfortable work trip. It is very convenient to all the main Oxford locations and just round the corner from Westgate Mall which has everything you need. It was easily accessible to public transport. The apartment was beautifully decorated and I felt right at home. Hannah was very helpful when I had questions and bent over backwards to make sure I was looked after."
"Central location, easy car access. If you’re driving I recommend looking at justpark website - I found a spot for 3 days right next door, cheaper and more convenient than the Westgate shopping center."

A real example from our Oxford Airbnb management portfolio: a two-bedroom apartment in Oxford OX1, comparing the last 12 months of short let income with its previous long let.
| Two-bedroom apartment, Oxford OX1 | Per month |

| Short let net income (last 12 months) | £2,876 |
| Difference | +£1,262 (+78%) |
Before: A Self-Managed Long Let
Through our Oxford Airbnb management, we turn underused rental properties into short lets that guests rate highly and landlords profit from.
Let to a long-term tenant and managed by the landlord themselves, this two-bedroom apartment in OX1 earned £1,614 a month, with every call, repair and tenancy issue falling to the landlord.
After: Managed as a Short Let
We refurbished and furnished the apartment for professional guests and relaunched it as a serviced apartment. Over the last 12 months it has paid its landlord an average of £2,876 a month, after our management fee, bills and cleaning. That is £1,262 more every month, a 78% increase, or around £15,100 more over the year, with no day-to-day involvement.
Figures are the average monthly net income paid to the landlord over the last 12 months, after our 15% management fee, utility bills and cleaning, compared with the rent received on the previous self-managed long let. Results vary by property, location and season.
How We Fill the Quieter Months
Oxford is busiest from spring to early autumn, so we plan for winter well in advance. Alongside holiday and weekend guests, we host longer stays: companies housing staff on projects, contractor teams, relocating families, visiting academics and hospital visitors.
These guests often book for several weeks or months at a time, which keeps occupancy steadier through the quieter months and means fewer changeovers at your property. Our three-bedroom house in Headington has been occupied on 90% of nights since it launched in December 2025, including through the winter.

They provide guaranteed rent every month, offer a long term contract, and take care of everything with no void periods, it truly gives me peace of mind. Working with them is smooth and hassle free, and I couldn't be happier with their professionalism and reliability. I highly recommend other landlords to work with them!
It's extremely reassuring knowing my property is in safe and capable hands. Having rented out properties myself I know the importance of guests safety and comfort. Spencer and Jackson completely renovated and refurbished the property to a high spec, additionally knowing they will undertake repairs, and they have been very dependable with regards to rental payments, which is essential to every owner. Thank you Hannah and Team.
I have let my property through several agents previously, but Spencer & Jackson are indeed exceptional. Their communication and fees are very transparent. They take excellent care of the properties, pay landlords on time, and at the same time care about guest safety and comfort. I have full confidence in them and would highly recommend them. Thank you.

Which areas and properties do you cover?
We manage 1–3 bedroom flats and houses in Oxford postcodes OX1, OX2, OX3 and OX4.
Can I sell or move back in later?
Yes. Short lets have no long-term tenancy, so you keep the flexibility to sell, refurbish or use the property yourself. Our minimum management term is 6 months, and we recommend 12 months so you can see a full year of seasonal demand. A notice period applies to end our management.
How much more could my property earn as a short let?
It depends on the property, its location and the season. As one example, a two-bedroom apartment we manage in Oxford OX1 earned its landlord an average of £2,876 a month over the last 12 months, after all fees, bills and cleaning, compared with £1,614 a month on its previous self-managed long let: 78% more, with the landlord no longer managing it themselves. If your long let is managed by a letting agent, the difference is likely to be even larger, as agent fees reduce the rent you receive. We’ll give you an honest view of your property on a free call.
