Perfect quiet family getaway

We had an amazing stay at Minster Mill! The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating and made our stay especially enjoyable. We visited with our three young sons and they loved exploring the grounds and playing outside. It was a beautiful property and very welcoming to our family.

Lovely Stay

Amazing stay in a quiet little village about 20 minutes drive from Oxford, Burton on the water. 5 minute drive from Burford which is amazing and 5 minutes from Diddly Sqt. Farm and pub. The Swan pub opposite is so cosy.

Ok, but nothing special

I appreciate that any hotel stay at Xmas bears an uplift in room rate and we were staying up attend a Xmas function, but I do not feel the room met our expectations for the cost.

We had a lovely stay at the Minster mill, we have been a few times before the renovation and enjoyed it more the first few times. However, there were some positives this time around, the food was lovely in the Wildling restaurant. The young gentleman serving us was very nice at the restaurant and Lucy was awesome too, she made the evening very enjoyable and was great company! The room overall did look quite tired despite the renovations and lacked a little character however, the outdoor terrace in the room was lovely. The area is lovely and there are some very pretty places to visit so overall still a very positive experience. On previous visits we have brought our pet Cat along for the stay as this hotel was meant to be pet friendly, however this time around we were told by reception it was only exclusively dog friendly not pet friendly which we found a little frustrating as this was never an issue in the past here or other pet friendly hotels.

Beautiful hotel, few issues

Hotel and room itself (junior suite) were stunning, however unfortunately a few things took the shine off. One particular staff member in the restaurant on our arrival day was very rude and made us feel very uncomfortable, to the point I was actually quite upset and we left the area. Very unnecessary and we were made to feel unwelcome there, despite only one customer being in the restaurant at the time. Room itself was lovely, a few minor issues with a broken shower and item missing from the minibar, finding someone else’s socks in the drawer. King size bed was two beds pushed together - no problem with this but both slightly different heights with a dip in the middle so not ideal. Majority of staff we came across were friendly and polite. Such a shame about a few things that put a negative slant on the whole stay, which has been for a special occasion and only our second night away without the kids in 4 years.

Nice setting and convenient location, with decent parking. Staff in the spa were great and treatments excellent although the spa itself a bit underwhelming; pool a bit cold, steam room quite small, limited loungers and special effects showers hard to use. Standard room decent with a comfortable large bed, small but nice bathroom and the usual amenities. Proximity of the windows on the ground floor to the path outside a bit disconcerting but ok. We thought the main accommodation hall looked like a prison and a few plants and better lighting could have made it really inviting and modern. Wildings restaurant delivered an excellent dinner but while the staff were pleasant enough they came across as completely out of their depth compared to the fine dining offered. At least one experienced head wait person should have been around. The dining room itself is very nice. Breakfast was very average and took ages to arrive. Overall staff were friendly. Went to the Old Swan for a pre dinner drink hoping for a warm cosy ye old pub but the inside didn’t match the inside which was cold (why wasn’t the fire on?) and lifeless even though there were a few people in there. The staff also struggled to deal with 3 people at the small bar. Would strongly suggest a refit and pepping up the staff but until then don’t bother as there’s much better pubs a stone’s throw away. All in all had a good time and would go back if only for the excellent spa staff and treatments and a meal in Wildings.
