Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The room was nice, except the fact it was two single beds put together, very uncomfortable couple of nights, staff were nice enough, chicken kebabs where a bit undercooked towards the top of the skewer and the squid was over cooked and chewy, the hotel is dog friendly and has a lovely open fire and great walks near by
A very enjoyable stay at a lovely inn in the centre of Woodstock.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was nicely decorated but there was a bad smell of stagnant water coming from the shower drain. This must have been like it for some time so disappointing that the room would be rented before solving the issue! It was immediately noticeable. The door to our room and other rooms near by were all dented and chipped making a poor first impression which was a shame and the bedding was inadequate for February in the UK so we were cold.
Superb place to stay.

Room 4 was fine, but extraction from kitchen made it sound like flying in a jumbo jet, did switch off about 10pm so not the end of the world, and they offer ear plugs if needed.
Lovely welcome, upgraded room. Quiet as requested and Any other requests were accommodated. Great food and service. Free WiFi, water and milk for room. Shampoo / shower gel provided. Thank you for a lovely stay.
A warm friendly welcome and comfortable atmosphere. Rooms clean and spacious with great facilities. Breakfast high quality ingredients and served by warm friendly staff would highly recommend this little gem.
We had an amazing stay: the family who runs the business is very friendly, hardworking, always willing to please the customers. The pub is cosy, the food served very nice and heart warming. Our family room was comfortable and nicely decorated. We definitely recommend!!
