We stayed overnight as we were visiting Blenheim Palace for the Christmas displays. Didn't realise the pub is approx 2 miles from Blenheim but this was not a problem. The pub is very popular and busy with a friendly atmosphere. Our room was good value, clean and comfortable and breakfast was good, we would stay again.

Classy country retreat
Had a very comfortable overnight stay. Large room with all the amenities needed to make it a pleasing stay. Great bar and restaurant onsite so we didn’t need to venture into town (about a mile and a half away) for dinner. Breakfast was fantastic with locally sourced quality produce. Only slight criticism was with the shower being a low pressure and not allowing me to keep the tap out to run the overhead shower - just the handheld.

Julia.s thoughts
We were made welcome but were fed up with finding 5 long legged spiders in the bath.The dark paint in bathroom and on door were very chipped .the shower i had to be shown how to work .We were not told until all booked and booking a meal that the saturday had a live band and bar etc crowded and very noisy.The room cost £450 for 2 nights.We had expected quality.. Although staff very helpful Quality all round we did not have.Definately not worth so much money. Most unfortunately.Some money refunded would be most welcome

No complaints
This is a little hotel next to a little pub. We were greeted by a lovely young lady who showed us to our room. Room was simple, bed was comfortable, it was clean. It was very hot and there was no fan and that would probably be the one minor complaint but perhaps we could have requested one but as we were just staying overnight for a wedding it didn’t matter much. Wouldn’t stay here more than that really, it serves well as a quick stay location in my opinion!

Great Motel, Great Breakfast. Friendly hosts
We chose this hotel as we were going to blenheim palace and its only a short drive to the village of woodstock. The staff are very friendly and served up a fab full english breakfast. The room was very nicely decorated and comfortable. There was some road noise from the room as the rooms are external to the pub and open out directly to the outside but this was minimal. Overall i would recommend and will stay again if in the area

Great location, average value
Great location for Blenheim and their Nocturne concerts. Accordingly somewhat pricey for what we got. Room not properly clean, breakfast portions a little on the small side. Service was friendly & welcoming.

Great place to stay and dogs welcome.
Great rooms, immaculately clean, nice furnishings, tea/coffee/hot chocolate /water available. Own control of heating for room. Beds amazingly comfortable. Easy free parking near to rooms. Great menu for both breakfast and evening meal but only one choice for starter and main for vegetarian, would be challenging for vegans! If busy can be a very long wait for your meal, took 2 and half hours for a starter and main! Amazed that burger came on its own and fries had to be ordered separately!
