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.

The family suite was a great option for us and is great for families. Bathroom (with a shower) in the middle with two bedrooms either side. One as a twin and one as a double. Everything was clean. Comms were clear re parking (getting the pass from reception) and we parked up easily. Check-in was simple and lady was very friendly. Staff in the morning were very welcoming at breakfast were very attentive and the breakfast was great. Walking distance to Blenheim palace so really convenient. Woodstock also lots of options to eat also had a lovely meal at the punch bowl.

Way too noisy unfortunately. I was unlucky to get a room at the front which is on the main road and so traffic noise was awful. Thank goodness for noise cancellation iPods. Apart from that the room was spacious and clean with excellent amenities

It's upstairs for me

Third stay but first time in a downstairs room, a little bit more road noise, will try to book an upstairs room next time. Overall, very happy with the place, has always been very clean and friendly.

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!!

The room was spacious and newly updated, bathroom was beautiful. Location was perfect, right in town and a 10-15 minute walk to Blenheim Palace. Had supper at The Chef Imperial, best Chinese food I’ve ever had!
