Booking a Guest Room

St Peter’s has two guest rooms which may be used by Old Members at special rates. The current rate is £35 per night for a single room. This includes breakfast on days when it is being served in college (not Sundays).

To find out availability of the guest rooms please e-mail the Porter’s Lodge.

Gaudies

College holds two gaudies a year, one in January and one in September. Invitations to each Gaudy are sent out approximately six weeks before the event takes place.

Chapel Services

Old Members are very welcome to attend any Chapel Service; see the Chapel pages for further information.

St Peter’s also has a number of high quality music recitals throughout the term.  Old Members in the local area are automatically informed of these events.  If you would like to hear about them but don’t live locally then please ask Emily McLeod to add you to the mailing list.

Visiting Oxford → Oxford Alumni Discounts

A day trip to Oxford can be a lot of fun.  With some of the best museums and galleries in the country, and the most architecturally beautiful and historically interesting buildings, Oxford is a fantastic place to bring family and friends.  The new Castle development affords a multitude of new restaurants as well as the visitor attraction and excellent viewing point of the spires from the top of the ancient mound.

Why not make a weekend of your visit and fit in a trip on the river and a picnic in the park? 

A day in Oxford is even better now with the various discounts available to Oxford University Alumni.  You should have received, or shortly be receiving, your alumni card if the University has your current address details. 

This card entitles the bearer to a variety of offers, including discounted theatre tickets and hotel bookings, visits to the Oxford Story exhibition, and reductions in a selection of shops and restaurants.
