Storia

Somerville College was founded in 1879, in response to a growing demand to provide an Oxford education for women. Its founders named the College in honour of the Scottish mathematician and scientist Mary Somerville,and the Somerville family arms and motto (the notoriously untranslatable "Donec rursus impleat orbem") were adopted.

Somerville alumnae have achieved an impressive number of “firsts” - the first, and only, British woman to win a Nobel prize in science(Dorothy Hodgkin); the highest-ranking female officer of her time in the British intelligence services (the Queen of Spies, Daphne Park); the first woman to lead the world’s largest democracy (Indira Gandhi); the first Indian woman barrister (Cornelia Sorabji) and the first woman Prime Minister of this country (Margaret Thatcher).

Countless others have forged path-breaking careers in academic life, politics, literature, science, law, business, education and the media.

First time using university-rooms.com and the whole process was seamless. Stayed at Somerville College Oxford which was fabulous. Centrally located, spacious room and beautiful grounds. My first time staying in student accommodation but it won’t be my last.
KRISTENO

An excellent and quite large single room in a very modern building. Staff were helpful and the breakfast was very good. A few spider webs in the room but other than that, was a faultless stay.

Clean and welcoming. Excellent shared washing/ shower facilities. A bit noisy early mornings when bins are being moved. Happy to recommend Somerville to friends.

Functional, clean, straight forward, no nonsense room. Plenty of choice for breakfast but choices were difficult to locate at first, quality wasn't overly high.

Historic buildings in beautiful grounds and very convenient for buses on the Woodstock Road. Good breakfast in the hall with nice croissants and jam.
Anon

Awesome location and service. Would recommend putting a shelf of some sort in the common bathroom to put towels/toiletries while showering.
Anon

Very friendly and good room. Excellent breakfast including veggie sausages. Not your fault but building site was loud from 7-7 not 8-6
