A place worth returning to

Really enjoy our stays with you and have stayed 3 or 4 times. Our family lives in Bicester so it's a perfect location for us. We have mainly stayed in Room 1 which we love, and we will be returning next time we are visiting. Love the food, drink and pub atmosphere. See you again soon.
