A shabby chic, early 19th century regency house with a large, leafy garden.
This location is a grand but rustic regency house with a sweeping drive and ornate garden in the centre of Oxford. It's in the process of being renovated back to its former glory but in the meantime, it makes a brilliant vintage setting for filmmakers and photographers. The house was once a very grand regency mansion that was divided into two parts in the early 1960s. It is the former home of the wartime novelist Elizabeth Bowen. The garden is well kept in parts and wild in other areas, with huge trees, thorn bushes and roses growing next to the grand surrounding walls. Inside there is a range of rooms - some in their original form since the 1970s and some more recently decorated. The views from the upstairs sitting room across the garden are particularly spectacular.
