2nd stay at this really pleasant pub with rooms in a pretty village. Food is particularly good - both dinner and interesting breakfast options that go above and beyond the standard fare that is usually on offer. Room was pleasant - bit quirky - but well furnished. Will definitely stay here again when in the area

Lovely typical country pub / hotel. Very friendly welcome, room and bathroom were very clean. Good tea / coffee facilities and homemade biscuits were a bonus. Breakfast was excellent, wish we'd had time to taste lunch or dinner as it smelled fab. Next time we are visiting family nearby we will be back. Thank you

Friendliness of the staff. Our evening meal and breakfast were of a high standard. Felt we were treated personally rather than just another guest. Our room had everything we needed. Perhaps my only slight criticism would be that we were overlooked from houses and the gardens so had to have the blind down all of the time.

This is a little gem to find - excellent accomadation and staff along with Quiet surroundings Food id second to none with a wide range for starters and main meal.Rooms are tastefully done with all the usual requirements and fresh milk is from a vacuum flask so its all fresh. Toilets are spotlessly clean and well laid out along with general condition is very good.Thank you and well done to all.

A lovely place to stay

Great place in racehorse training country. Breakfast and dinner excellent. Room great although ours looked onto pub garden which was raised in places so a bit nervous of privacy-kept blinds drawn. Noisy stairs door made wardrobe and pictures rattle. So go for room at front. Overall though a great place to stay. Staff friendly and welcoming.

An outstanding "gastro-pub" in the country.

We lived in this village a half century ago and this was a typical country pub. Now it is a very up scale "gastro-pub'. The food was superb and very reasonably priced. Ths staff couildn't have been more accomodating. My only criticism would be that the rooms are very compact - not unusual in England. The inn is on the main street of the village - one of the most attractive in England and the pub has created excellent footpath maps of the surrounding countryside.

This is a superb stop in rural South Oxfordshire, and I thoroughly recommend it. The surrounding area is lovely. The pub is well stocked with fine beers, and the food is only a little short of Michelin quality.
