Very clean establishment with lovely private garden which guests can use. The breakfast was very generous and a wide range of choices. Good central location in Banbury, with easy walking to rail station. I stayed in a single rom without ensuite, which was a good sized room. Only minor niggle was that the mattress probably needs replacing.

Banbury Cross (Great) B&B

The Banbury Cross B&B puts a number of hotel chains to shame, from being greeted by the host through to the facilities and breakfast. Great place to stay, slept like a log and was fully refreshed for the drive down to Kidlington for work. Highly recommend this B&B.

Warm, immaculately clean, and cheapest available. Not v comfortable single bed and I had to share a loo, but I guess these points were reflected in the price.
