Guest reviews
Fabulous
Very nice place, warm & comfortable
Liked: Very nice place, room warm & comfortable, bathroom well equipped.
Disliked: There was no one around when I checked out in the morning and no instructions on where to leave keys.
Lovely friendly and well run pub B&B
Liked: Very friendly staff good quality food choices for dinner and room clean and comfortable
Disliked: No complaints
Very good, but expensive
Liked: Lovely quiet location in old Headington. Easy to get into Oxford city centre on the buses. Room very comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.
Disliked: I made several enquiries about the availability of parking, none of which were answered. In the end I came by train, so it was no longer relevant, but the only reply I got to a direct email was "we are looking forward to seeing you", which didn't answer my question. I can't comment on the breakfast as I didn't have any. The evening meal was very good, although I don't like food served on a slate "platter", a bit gimmicky and unnecessary.
Liked: Lovely staff room had everything we needed excellent dinner and we were able to leave the car and get a bus into centre of town.
Disliked: Nothing
A terrific spot for a visit to Oxford
Liked: All of the staff were very welcoming and helpful. Easy access to central Oxford via bus or taxi. The rooms are well-appointed and the beds are very comfortable. Breakfasts are cooked to order and very tasty. All in all, a great place to stay.
Disliked: Nothing.
Excellent stay
Liked: Lovely pub with great accommodation and excellent breakfast hosted by the lovely Martha, who made the stay feel extra special.
Disliked: Nothing.
