"I lived in a house filled with other academically-minded people, and we didn't shy away from sorting through difficult questions. When one of my housemates walked into the kitchen and asked us what we thought about the relationship between God's foreknowledge and his standing outside time, I knew I belonged."
-- Beth Campbell, Trinity International University (SSO - Spring 2006)
The Vines and the Lodge
The Vines is a grand home on the crest of Headington Hill, situated on 1.5 acres of garden with views of the stunning Oxford spires. Along the path of C.S. Lewis’ former commute, The Vines is a 35-minute walk into Oxford city centre, or a 5-minute walk to the nearest bus stop with busses passing by every 6-7 minutes. It has a large kitchen, laundry facilities, a well-appointed common room and newly fitted bathrooms for every 2-3 rooms.
* Playing disc in the gardens at The Vines. There is also a croquet set!
The Lodge is a small cottage situated on the same property that houses 4 students in two rooms. It is literally 15 steps from the Lodge to the side door into the Vines. It has its own dining area, kitchen, bathroom, but some students staying at the Lodge prefer to use the main kitchen and dining room in the Vines.
Crick Road
The Crick Road house is situated 10 minutes walk away from the centre of town (5 minutes to Wycliffe Hall). Spread over four floors, the house has two kitchens, and each floor has its own bathroom facilities. The ground floor has a common room that is accessible to all students, and there are laundry facilities in the basement. There is an IT room on the top floor, with one computer and a networked printer. The entire house is wirelessly networked, and there is a small garden at the back.
