"No parking and a poor breakfast"

5.0

A decent room with ensuite. Friendly staff.

Our window frame was broken, rotten and flapping. No attempt had been made to effect a temporary repair. The. window was propped open with a toilet roll. There is NO parking and options in the village are very limited. The.full English breakfast was one of the poorest we have eaten. The fried eggs were very overcooked.

"The Bell, with a well in the bar."

10.0

For a quaint, old country pub in a beautiful cotswold area, it's a great place to stay and be able to visit the area. Excellent quality pub grub, olde world pub games available. Super selection of ales and drinks of Green King quality. Oxford sausages were incredible with mash or at breakfast. Fantastic value, too. I stayed here 2yrs ago. Can't praise The Bell Ducklington enough, BUT, remember this is an old village pub with HISTORY. Enjoy your stay.

Possible lack of hanging rails, BUT I think I saw some freestanding along the corridor. If in doubt, then ask. I was a lone traveller in the single room and therefore not an issue.

"Ambiance à l'anglaise dans les Cotswolds"

10.0

L'hôtel et le pub sont dans leur jus et les cloisons sont fines mais c'est ce qui fait aussi le charme des lieux. L'ambiance est chouette, le bruit se termine à des heures raisonnables. Le personnel est super et au petit soin et on y a bien mangé !

Peut-être revoir la literie

"a fantastic place to stay for a visit to the Cotswolds"

8.0

We really loved our stay at this inn, perfect location to visit the Cotswolds and Oxford. Parking in front of the pub was adequate, even though it was a popular pub with lots of guests. Our room was quiet and clean. It was quite a cold evening when we arrived and we were grateful for the heating in our room. We also appreciate the dog-friendly policy. Breakfast was very good. We would have loved more of this type of accommodations on our trip to the UK. Friendly and local.

The bed was on the small side.
