Convenient location but very clearly not set up to accept large numbers of bags, which were stored beneath did preparation benches etc. My bag was covered in a smear of grease when I picked it up,
- Julian
Love Coffee is an excellent Coffee Shop! Busy with a good vibe, helpful friendly staff in a relaxed environment. There is a wide range of hot and cold drinks and delicious savoury and sweet Greek delicacies. All round a great place to stash your bag and have a quality coffee experience.

Very convenient location and very friendly staff.
- Desirée
The place was good but if you have a laptop with you or other valuables, take that with you. Because everybody can take your bag/ suitcase. We were oké with the system

It was easy booking, plenty of places that provided the service and they looked after us and our luggage. Would use again!
- Jennifer
My problem with payment was sorted out really quickly and I ended up with a full refund by way of apology. Will definitely recommend and use the service again ! Choice of drop off points was good too - no weird dodgy premises :)
- Danny
Stasher connected us with a place in Oxford UK where we could store our luggage for the day after we had checked out of our airbnb. It was easy to reserve online and to find the place.
- Clare
Easy to use service, well located in th city centre, shame it doesn’t open later than 530pm. Friendly staff although bag return queue was big at the end of the day, so not something I’d want to be trying to do in a hurry. I would definitely use this service again if staying in Oxford.

Nearby sights and their own bag rules
Oxford Castle & Prison, ten minutes on foot from the station, doesn't allow luggage on site and directs visitors to its gift-shop lockers at £1 per use. Christ Church College has no left-luggage facilities at all and refuses bags larger than 40cm x 30cm x 20cm, so a bulky daypack or shopping bag can be a problem there.
Carfax Tower's own page notes the 99-step climb to its panoramic viewing platform, but there is no lift, so carrying anything heavy upstairs is impractical. It is served by the City Sightseeing Oxford bus tour, which stops at Stop 7 or 8. Oxford Playhouse, by contrast, runs a basement cloakroom where theatregoers can leave coats and small bags.
Getting around Oxford with luggage
Oxford railway station sits roughly a 20-minute walk or 10-minute taxi ride from the Sheldonian Theatre, the university's ceremonial hall with its green-domed Cupola viewing platform.
Oxford Playhouse is a shorter 10-minute walk from the station, and its cloakroom is the most practical official luggage drop-off among the sights here. Families taking Bodleian Library tours should note that children under 5 go free and discounted tickets are available, which can make the locker arrangements at the library more worthwhile for a group.
