Overall good but problematic electric.

Comfortable rooms, good parking, friendly staff, good breakfast

Problems with electricity supply to our room. Lights not working on entry. Was fixed but had to call on staff a few times as had repeated problems. They did deal with it each time quickly but we weren’t able to use kettle or heater during our stay for fear of losing lights again.

Excellent Hospitality

Staff were so friendly and welcoming, some of the best hospitality I've had in a long time.

Not much, the room was slightly dated and the bed was not the comfiest but overall nothing was bad.

The perfect base to explore The Cotswolds

It's a great place to make your base if you want to explore the Cotswolds, with its picturesque villages and rolling hills. Woodstock and Blenheim Palace are just a few minutes away on the road to Oxford. The charming town of Chipping Norton is also close by, but in the opposite direction. There's no need to worry about breakfast or dinner, as the Duke offers more than decent food to travelers and locals alike. My room was cozy, and the staff are helpful and accommodating.

Nothing to report.

Great location, great place

Love the location, it's on a main road but it's not busy abs the rooms are set right back facing the fields. Staff superb - an uncommon find these days. We will be back!

Wonderful stay

The property is in an excellent location and staff were very welcoming. The room was very clean. The mattress was exceptionally comfortable.

It was cold when we visited (-1 degree Celsius). I would have liked the room and bathroom to be a touch warmer as the cold air was coming in through the gap between the door and the floor.

A great place to return to after venturing out to Blenheim Palace.

The twin room was clean, well lit, warm and the bed very comfortable. The shower was powerful and the towels soft and fluffy. The breakfast choice catered for all and was well cooked. The lady at breakfast was very welcoming and attentive. It was close to Blenheim Palace with a bus stop right out side. We would highly recommend a stay here.

Warm and welcoming with lovely accommodation and excellent food.

It was a very warm and welcoming pub when we arrived on a wet afternoon. The room was beautifully presented with a very comfortable bed and nice facilities. Dinner was excellent with a good choice on the menu and an equally good breakfast in the morning. It's in the perfect position if you're visiting Blenheim Palace.

8.0 / 10.0

Really enjoy our two nights here and great distance from different towns and villages.

The room was really clean, tidy and the decor was lovely. You can also enjoy the complimentary drinks and treat that was on offer in the room. The food at the restaurant was really nice and the staff were very helpful with any questions we had to ask and they guided us on what the best options there was for food due to one of us having an intolerance. Would definitely recommend coming here and bringing the dog with us as they are pet friendly as well.

There isn’t nothing you can’t dislike about this place but would be nice if the hot water for the bath was a little more hot.

A perfect stopover location for a relaxing evening

Perfect location for one night en route to somewhere else. Rooms were clean, quiet and of adequate size. Staff were friendly and efficient and there’s a nice bar. Car parking facilities are good.

Sunday evening dinner menu is very limited and the bar closes at 9 p.m!

Nothing, the place is a gem.
