    Friendly staff and owners (and Brunel the dog!) The place is cosy and welcoming, the room was spotless and the bed very comfortable. Perfect for anyone visiting the Culham Science Centre.
  • Duncan

    Great location and staff were very helpful during my stay. Room was small, but comfortable and breakfast was good. Location for my planned visit worked out very well and close to the event I was attending.

    As always, Pauline ensured we had a great time: marvellous breakfast, good range of draft drinks and the room we asked for. It has the charm of pubs of the 20th century; nothing flashy or ostentatious just good food and good service.

    The room was ready for us when we arrived, although we were about half an hour early. As we have stayed there several times previously the owner recognised us and greeted us in a very friendly way.

    Little cosy Inn, not fancy but had all I needed for a two-night stay. Next to the train station, so easy to get to Didcot. The train noise was NOT disturbing. Breakfast was good as well as dinner.

    perfect location for my stay. Convenient for travel around South Oxfordshire and Oxford. Great home cooked breakfast and evening meals.
