Road bike recommendation, please

I'm looking for a recommendation for a road bike. These are my
requirements:
Less than £300
Built for on-road use
Gears to cope with hills
Comfortable saddle - or able to be easily changed for one

The bike is for use in Oxford, getting me to and from the JR hospital to the
centre of town every day. This distance is about 2.5 miles or so.

Thanks!
