This was a lovely B&B to stay at. The furnishings were very British and great for our England travels. The breakfast was tasty and had plenty of choices. Michelle was friendly and polite and not at all pretentious, very inviting and comfortable.

Banbury Cross (Great) B&B

The Banbury Cross B&B puts a number of hotel chains to shame, from being greeted by the host through to the facilities and breakfast. Great place to stay, slept like a log and was fully refreshed for the drive down to Kidlington for work. Highly recommend this B&B.

Very clean establishment with lovely private garden which guests can use. The breakfast was very generous and a wide range of choices. Good central location in Banbury, with easy walking to rail station. I stayed in a single rom without ensuite, which was a good sized room. Only minor niggle was that the mattress probably needs replacing.

Lovely host and spotless room

Lovely host, room was spotless and comfortable. I didn't realise I hadn't booked an ensuite (my error) but I had a separate bathroom just across from my door which was spotless.

This older home was well maintained and comfy. It was close to the centre of Banbury and down the hill to Banbury Cross and the statue of the lady on the horse. Breakfast is included and there is a wide range of cold or hot meal options; there is a kettle in the room with tea bag’s and coffee packs with sugar and UHT milk made it easy to have a hot drink in your room early morning or in the evening. For being on a busy road it was very quiet. Michelle is welcoming, but leaves you to get on with your stay. I would stay there again.
