A lovely place to call in and have anything from a drink to a lunch time meal, they even do dog ice cream and chews so dogs are welcome if on a lead. Lots of walking in the countryside.the views are lovely. It's not a hotel but they do rooms I think.

Well worth a visit! Google lists this as a hotel, it used to be a youth hostel but don't think it is now. Great place for lunch or a snack.

Late delivery of some of our group's food order delayed our onwards travel. This was compounded by a another group that rudely pushed in amongst ours to start their own order.

Absolutely brilliant and beautiful place to visit. If you are out walking, running or cycling, just when you are low on energy there drinks and food pick you right back up. The owners and staff are so nice and helpful. A must visit.

Stopped over in the hostel while walking The Ridgeway. Very charming hostel set around a courtyard with a lovely big dining room (café in the day) and well equipped kitchen. I had no food but the host sold me enough bits to make a meal and prepared me a packed lunch for the next day. Basic bed situation, but just what I'd expect from a walkers hostel. It's a short walk from the West side of the path along a grassy bank, or there's a path which links to the Easterly direction just opposite the hostel road. Half an hour's walk down through the fields to the pub at Letcombe Regis. Would recommend!

How have I never been here before???? I live 5 minutes away and always on the to-do list . Today my mum took me for lunch , their boiler had broken and they explained waiting for a new one but will cost 20k !!!! I've just had major surgery, and I thoroughly enjoyed it here, even tho I was a little cold . The food made up for it ! I had the scampi, and mum had Brussels sprout soup, which In her words was amazing(I'll take your word for that mum) If i had 20k, I would have instantly given it to them as I see firsthand what an amazing educational place this is for families and schools . And the views wow, just wow .

Camped here whilst cycling King Alfred’s Way. Very convenient location! We arrived quite late ~8:30pm yet the host still gave us a great warm welcome and showed us the facilities with no rush. Views from the pitch were fantastic & can order takeout to the site. Stayed in morning to make use of the on-site cafe. Beautiful surroundings. Thanks a million!

When I was a child this was the local municipal tip. Hadn't visited the site for a number of years and was saddened to see how run down it has become. They really need to get rid of the old scrap car and other detritus before things go full circle.

Really really cozy space for a cup of tea or a coffee and a slice of cake. Perfect place to stop off while walking the ridgeway, beautiful area and very lovely staff… felt like an adventurer having a pit stop and refilling HP, very misty and atmospheric with the misty woods surrounding. Honestly one of the loos looked a bit like my first year university accommodation which was a bit weird - don’t know whether that speaks to the quality of the loo or the bad quality of my accommodation. Nevertheless, a really lovely place.

Absolutely wonderful fish and chips served by fantastically friendly staff. Most definitely the best fish and chips in Oxford, and well worth a cycle in the rain for!

Booked a table for 7:15 on a Friday night ...... tried to order the oysters .. they had none ! .. next table had some ... tried to order mussells ..... both tables next to ours had some .... they said they had none! ....... you wouldn't expect them to run out so early on a Friday night..... reply to Mangers reply ..... The waiter could have told us the mussells and oysters were not available when sitting us down. Instead I spent 20 minutes decidng what I wanted .. oysters and mussells then when the waiter took order we were told at which point I had to quickly decide on something else .. sorry but definitely not a great experience

We have absolutely no complaints re the service and facilities other than the slippery bath as a shower.. could be rectified with a rubber mat( especially for the more elderly guests) Bedroom… spacious, spotless and comfy! We had an evening meal which was utterly divine… The starter of cheese brûlée was highly original and delicious; followed by venison with the most sensational sauce( jus!). Dessert finished things off wonderfully with a Apple and blackberry crumble cake! Mark our waiter was most attentive. Two breakfasts were of the continental variety with plenty of fresh fruit; muesli; yoghurt; cheese; ham and a lot of fresh toast to include brioche! Full English was on offer but we were having lunch later so opted for the healthier course Maybe a cheese board could have added that extra dessert option The chef ( possibly owner) Marcel who hails from Slovakia was charming and clearly a most competent chef.

Food is superb. We had the burger which was delicious and the sticky toffee pudding which was the nicest I have tasted. The serving staff were very friendly and super helpful, nothing was too much trouble.
