Perfect for a quick cycling or walking break.

A very enjoyable stay. Room was basic but clean. We were given a very warm welcome by Jason who showed us to our room. The Thai restaurant which is located at the Pub/Hotel served an absolutely delicious 5* meal and is a must if you’re planning on staying here. The location is perfect for a hiking or cycling getaway break.

A good place for a stopover

Really lovely pub with good food and friendly owners/staff. Was a bit noisy early in evening but very quiet by bedtime. Perfect for a night and our plans and not far from the park and ride (parking charges in Oxford are very high - £15 for 2 hours not unusual)

Great friendly local vibes

This is a must stay for the true local experience near Oxford. Very nice people the owner Jason is one of the true inn keepers you’ve seen in movies and the entire staff will go above and beyond to help in any way. We were there just one night as a side trip and it has been the highlight of the trip. Pub is great with lots of locals, the rooms are not 5 star but are clean and comfortable with everything you really need, my teen son said this room is “cool”. I will definitely keep on my list for a return. Jason and Louie are the best Cheers!

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The pub is very nice, in a lovely little village. We ate dinner in the pub and the Thai food is really excellent. Room was small, but makes good use of the available space and has everything you need. Nice touch to leave fresh fruit, croissant and instant porridge so you can make your own breakfast in the room (although we didn't). Excellent value for money. The only minor negative was that the wifi signal in room 3 was very weak and patchy, which also affected the TV reception. Overall, a great place that we have already recommended to friends

Traditional British Pup but fare to expensive for

Unfortunately not the place you like to stay for this price. The people are very friendly and open. There is a small restaurant and food is good. But the room was not clean. No light in the bathroom. Only to recommend when you want a secret meeting there, because the rooms are outside and direct from car part to access. And no breakfast or someone to leave the room keys.
