We really enjoyed our stay at the Bartholomew Arms. Our room was clean and comfortable and the pub downstairs had a nice atmosphere. The owners were really helpful and friendly - would recommend!

The staff were good and very helpful the room was very clean and a good size the bar area was really good and the staff were happy to have a drink with you and make you feel at home
Beautiful, peaceful, country pub/hotel. Staff were really pleasant. Mobile food vendor was both reasonably priced and tasted amazing. I would happily and hopefully will stay again.
Very helpful and provided a packed breakfast on both days as had to be out of hotel at 07.00 each morning. Room was very comfortable, clean and warm. Mine host and staff were very helpful and friendly. Will definitely be booking again.
Lovely little country pub in a quiet village. Pub not currently open on Mondays, but owners live locally and open up rooms for guests.

Located in pretty village full of honey-coloured stone 5 miles from Towcester. Rooms are over pub which is closed Mondays & doesn't do evening meals tho' you do get free run of the kitchens & a nice continental breakfast with hot pastries. Food can be bought in village shop or takeways ordered from Towcester (Mughal House particularly recommended). Very reasonably priced: £125 for 2 nights including breakfast.

Had a very good sleep. Very friendly staff and helpful for other amenities due to the place being shut on a Monday.
If had known before cancellation time I would have gone somewhere else.

Parking OK, spaces on road opposite. No food served by hotel, including breakfast. Pop up kebab van from 5.30pm. Apparently, different pop up vans on different nights. Nice choice of ales. Pub seemed popular with locals, which did make it rather noisy. Staff friendly and helpful. Hotel was a little tired looking. Bed comfortable.
Good value for money shame some rubbish was Missed
Nice and comfortable but there was some foodstuffs left on top of the wardrobe that I just left where it was.

Reward night
Typical village pub accommodation in an old building.
Creaking stairs and uneven floor was expected, bed was comfy but no heating at 10pm but okay in the morning.
No food at night but a reasonable continental breakfast.

It looks very cute but the shower and windowsill was horrendously mouldy. The shower spray holder was broken which required a hand held shower. The heating in the room wasnt working and there was no lighting in the hall/ stairwell ..leaving early was a feel the way process and as with a pub it was incredibly noisy until midnight/one.Disappointed that a continental breakdast takeaway wasnt available due to leaving early. ..in rural area without shops or corner stores open.
The staff were friendly , comfortable bed and pillows and a much needed warm snuggly blanket.
Good wifi signal and TV chanels.
