Very, very, rude staff! Staff yelled at my children as if they had just stolen from the College!! Even though they were doing nothing but walking around and looking at this cool sculpture! Terrible and mean staff, never go there!

I enjoy stay and eeting some locals, as visiting professor of tribal studies. Wonderful Cowley Road with bushmeat restaurants and many ladies just a spear-throw away and I thank you! Plenty of beauty in the college, and the river walks on Charwell are good. It is built by Danish man and not old.||Signed Cyril Malwesi, Village Elder
