First of all, let me say that the staff are AMAZING. This is not at all a review of the service. But the facility is ATROCIOUS. Our room had pubic hair on the floor of the bathroom, no hot water unless you ran it for 5 min, the tub wouldn't drain, the ceiling in room 6 was sp low, we hit out head, and there was no AC. Again, great staff but don't ever book a room here.

Disliked: Staff & service

Sadly lack of restaurant staff training brought the review down. Service was slow, repeatedly asked for things, too many things were not available on the menu, lack of knowledge about the dishes, mistakes were made with orders. Otherwise it's great. The rooms are good, the beer/wine good, the food that did get served was good, the staff were friendly. Would have been 5* were it not for the restaurant service.

Great for visiting Blenheim Palace

Booked due to proximity to Blenheim Palace, only about 15 mins away by car/taxi. Great rustic pub offering very comfortable & clean rooms. We booked one of three luxury double rooms, where we got the only one with a shower - the other 2 have baths only. Pretty spacious given it's a converted cottage with queen size bed. Quiet location but easy to find. If attending an event at Blenheim, then would certainly recommend. We ate in the pub - food was decent, nice friendly staff.

Was booked last minute due to work commitments but was fantastic, very nice little coubtry pub with rooms, stayed in room 1 which was extremely spacious and comfortable, food in the bar wasnt the best in terms of value for money but was cooked well. My one gripe would be the shower head in my room was absolutely caked with limescale in what is a soft water area so hasnt had much attention for some time however Honor who was working when I arrived was fantastic and a real asset to the business

Lovely property with good parking, well designed and decor was pleasant. Room was spacious and clean. Food was excellent. Young staff were polite and tried to be helpful but really need some more training in finer etiquette but not their fault. No finger bowls for shelled prawns, Rose wine not chilled enough and was poured into glasses before the bottle and glasses were brought to the table. However the food was excellent although you might struggle if you had gluten dietary issues.

Excellent and cosy place to stay and to eat. Just a short journey from Oxford, and in the middle of lovely countryside. The Bell has a lovely country atmosphere with a stylish bar and restaurant. Service and food is excellent. Bedrooms are comfortable and have everything you could need at a reasonable price. Special mention for Toby, who works at the speed of light to ensure your evening meal is wonderful. A definate must visit for anyone in the Oxford area.
