Good use of old buildings. Radiator in our room wouldn't shut down, had to open window. Room rather small.

It is a pleasant old inn set in a picturesque village but only about 15 minutes drive from Oxford. The price was good for the facilities and the food was good. For my particular requirements it suited me perfectly.

Nestles in a lovely little vilage in the countryside of Oxfordshire. The pub is cricket themed with signed international team bats on display. The food and at atomsphere was good and te staff were very attentive. Overall the stay was enjoyable, and would hve liked to stay longer, but we were moving onto rerlatives after my partner had attended a course at Raymond Blanc's cookery school.

The pub connected to the Inn was lovely, had great food, wonderful locals and was very laid back. The coverlet on the bed was thick and warm. The rooms were the smallest we'd had on our trip, and we had trouble figuring out how to turn on the light in the hall (finally got that) and the heat in the room (never did figure that out) and the toilet wouldn't flush, but we'd been having trouble flushing toilets all over the country. Just inferior plumbing I guess.

A pleasant and comfortable Inn for a couple of nights stay. Room was basic, but reasonably comfortable. Probably needs a little updating, such as a new tv and perhaps the mattress needs replacing. English breakfast and staff were excellent.

Breakfast was very good and the staff efficient and friendly. The room was warm and comfortable. Lack of attention to detail with regard to maintenance. The shower rail was off its runners although it still worked and one of the bulbs in the overhead light needed replacing.

It was a very friendly atmosphere, from the moment we arrived. With the staff being extremely helpful and friendly. The service for breakfast in the mornings was excellent with the food being well presented and tasty. We had an evening meal on the Saturday night, which I would recommend to anyone. I booked the table at short notice, with no fuss. The room was everything we could ask for. It was such a relaxing atmosphere I would definitely go there again.

Traditional but very inviting pub which was clean, friendly and just a lovely place to get back to after a day out in Oxford. Breakfast was amazing and dinner by the open fire was a real treat. Could have stayed a week! If I was being picky I;d say the room was a little on the small side for £76 a night, didn't matter but may be worth bearing in mind when you book.

Friendly & very helpful staff. Queries dealt with immediately. The Croucher was a good description of our room - we kept bumping our heads on the sloping ceiling! Some pattern or markings would help.

Comfortable traditional english village inn. Good food, real ale and comfortable rooms. A comfortable low stress place to stay whilst on business. The bar is something of a cricket museum which adds interest and is well supported by the locals.
