Your Pad Creators

MEET YOUR HOST

Travel has always been a big part of my life. Over the years I’ve been fortunate to live and work in many different parts of the world within the tourism and hospitality industry.

My career has included roles ranging from tour leading across Africa and working as a dive instructor, to luxury travel consultancy and several years working on superyachts travelling through the Mediterranean and beyond. Throughout those experiences, one thing remained constant — looking after guests and helping people have memorable experiences in the places they visit.

Those years in hospitality shaped how Lilypad Stays was created. I wanted to bring the same attention to detail, comfort and care that I saw in high-end tourism into welcoming homes for people visiting Oxford.

Today Lilypad Stays offers a collection of thoughtfully prepared homes across the city. Whether guests are visiting for work, the university, the hospitals, or simply to explore Oxford, our aim is to provide comfortable places to stay where people can relax and feel at home.

Hosting is something I genuinely enjoy, and we take pride in making sure every guest feels welcome and well looked after during their time in Oxford.
