I stayed here on my own after an all day work gathering, whilst there are excellent eateries around, I took some food back to my room because it is so nice and homely after a full day out. The decor and furnishings are absolutely beautiful and made my stay very comfortable. The breakfast is excellent and the staff very friendly and pleasant.

Perfect Location for visiting Blenheim Palace

We stayed at the Blenheim Buttery the night before we visited Blenheim Palace. It was the perfect location. Room was comfortable with all required amenities. Service was good and breakfast was lovely. If we returned to the area we'd definitely stay here again.

A quaint property with all of the modern conveniences tucked inside. Staff were pleasant, and the town of Woodstock has a lot to offer. Parking is tight in Woodstock, either max 30 min or 4 hrs from 8am to 6pm. If you have a car, plan accordingly as the property does not have private parking. Overall, a wonderful stay.

Lovely, quaint building. Easy walking distance for Blenheim palace. The only negative thing was that the heating came on about 8am, therefore, it was quite cold when i got up, was unable to have a shower because the bathroom was so cold.

Very comfortable and clean room, slept well. When I got there the welcome was brief but they did say breakfast from 8am. Not only is this late for most people, the parking ticket also runs out at 8am which I didnt think was cool at all. Nice place though

Nice B & B

A perfectly nice room although we felt it needed more light in half of it. Bathroom was clean and good sized shower. Looked like the accommodation (above a cafe) was fairly recently renovated. On road parking out front was pay & display 8am to 6pm but we were requested to check in by 5. Machine able to take charge for next morning the night before. Breakfast was in cafe below and perfectly adequate.

Great location and breakfast. Bad nights sleep.

Great location, close to the Palace, pubs and restaurants. A really nice breakfast included in our price. Nice view out of our room of the town square. However, the bed was one of the worst I have ever slept on. Very rickety frame and clearly a very cheap mattress. Also, I don’t think I’ve ever stayed in a noisier room, it sounded like the people in the room above us were going to come through the ceiling, and as people walked up and down the hall it felt as loud as if they were in our room. Overall a nice B&B, but wouldn’t have wanted to stay longer than a night as had a terrible sleep.
