History

Wheatley is a friendly village just outside Oxford. It is a quiet place with a strong community feel, green spaces and calm residential streets. This makes it a good place for students who want a peaceful environment during their stay. At the same time, Oxford city centre is only a short bus journey away, so students can easily enjoy both village life and the city.

Wheatley has a long history that goes back to medieval times. Some of the older buildings and streets still show what the village was like in the past. Today, Wheatley combines traditional buildings, local shops and nearby countryside. This gives the village a special character and makes it a comfortable and practical place for short-stay students.

Shops and essentials

Wheatley has everything you need day-to-day without going into Oxford. There’s a Co-op, an ASDA supermarket with a petrol station, cafés, pubs, takeaways, a bakery and a pharmacy right in the village centre. It’s easy to grab a snack, pick up essentials or find a relaxed place to hang out with friends.
