The room was spotlessly clean. Breakfast was amazing, with delicious home-baked bread and jams. The hostess was incredibly kind and took the time to explain everything. Highly recommended!

This is literally my favourite place to stay in Oxfordshire.. The host is marvellous, the room is always clean and cared for and the attention to small details makes it so much nicer than staying in some bland hotel! Breakfast is always delicious too.... highly recommend 👌

“Rafters suited our needs for the couple of days we were there.”
Although on a main road the speed limit is 20 mph so it was quite easy to enter and leave the property in the car. The room and bed were very comfortable with quality tea and coffee available. We enjoyed the breakfasts which were cooked to order.
