A good variety for breakfast options. Location perfect spot as you are easily able to walk out to the shopping area. Bus stop located just outside for trip into Oxford. Lighting in dining room is abit dim. Gives an effective look but for anyone with a visual impairment it makes it difficult to read menu etc. We enjoyed our stay. Perfect for a mini breakaway to attend a wedding locally.

The family room was large with air conditioning, very comfortable mattresses and bedding, plenty of good quality towels, shower gel and a body moisturiser in the bathroom and complimentary bottles of drinking water, tea and coffee (machine). The staff could not have been more helpful with our questions and requests. We were allowed to check in earlier (£20 fee). Their pizzas were really good. There was no immediate parking but we managed to find spaces around without a problem. The location is fantastic, right in the middle of Witney town centre, with all the usual shops.

Very quaint, great atmosphere being a pub downstairs with rooms above. It wasn’t noisy even on the weekend. We had a large room for 3. Breakfast choices were fabulous. The staff in the dining room were extremely nice and helpful. I would definitely return to the Blue Boar.
