Easy to find, good parking, good variety for breakfast. Comfortable room and quiet. Evening menu, not a great choice of options, had the fish and chips which was good, accompanying peas were a little hard. Very supportive staff who are both caring and kind.

Checkin was efficiently done by the most helpful male receptionist. The room was well thought out and had everything you could need, although possibly a little basic. Breakfast exceeded my expectations and was very nice. I did think £30 extra for my dog was a little excessive as they don't provide anything extra for this. The location of the hotel is a short walk to Bicester Village. I would stay here again to visit the outlet village, or surrounding area.
