Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
the hotel staff were friendly and the rooms clean. No elevators if stairs are an issue. Very old decrepit inn. Road too busy to walk and nothing of interest in the area. You must need your own car if you stay at this inn. Lastly the food in the resteraunt was yucky.

Decent stay

This was our 9th time here, as a group of fellow motorcyclists, this place is a Central meeting place for all of us. The Dog house could do with a lick of paint, but it is clean. Good selection of drinks, decent meals and a good breakfast.

Wonderful little place. Steve and his team took great care of us. After a long day of sightseeing and driving it was a perfect place to reach before next day in Oxford. The Beer in the garden after check in was most enjoyable.

Very friendly pub with rooms. Nice feel about the place, with a quality breakfast, ample parking, dog friendly, bar area as well as the restaurant, clean restaurant restrooms and good choice of draft beers etc. Hotel room beds comfortable with nice linen, comfy pillows and nice crockery. Unfortunately the hotel side of things appear ‘tired’ in many areas with our bedroom spacious but needing a good paint and furniture needing modern replacements. A lot of marked walls, carpets and furniture. No tea and milk in our room on arrival was quickly sorted by staff, but minimal cheap loo roll, unfilled soaps etc were disappointing. Old shower heads. Rooms need an armchair to sit in as only the bed was comfy. Windows had restricted opening so room hot and stuffy at night (fan available). Food in the restaurant (evening) average, roast dinners were dry. Bar staff shut up shop half an hour early with no last orders called which was a bit disappointing! We would stay again as reasonable charge for room, but with a bit of a make over the place could be amazing.

The staff here avoided air fresheners at my request, and avoided putting the radiator on. The room was still warm in November. It’s in a lovely rural setting. I would love to stay for pleasure next time.
