Lovely relaxed stay close to our concert venue.
What a hidden gem, so close to Blenheim Palace. We had dinner and lunch at the hotel/pub and food was fantastic, blend of English and Indian menu items meant a varied palette was catered for as a couple - I love Indian food whereas partner doesn’t, so we were both very happy. The cooked breakfast was substantial and set us up for a day of exploring. Local buses into Oxford leave from right outside the hotel saving the hassle of driving/parking.

- • Nothing really comes to mind - if being picky then some maintenance on the sink tap (cold water flow slow) and the extractor fan was noisy when on - we mentioned to reception on check out , so sure it will be resolved by now.
