Lovely weekend away
Stayed for a couple of nights with my other half for weekend away. Was the perfect stay for us. Comfy room with everything we needed. Staff were all very friendly. Ate dinner there friday night and food was very good. Breakfast was great too. Woodstock itself is the perfect size for a relaxed weekend. Lots of nice cafes, restaurants and walks. Very much enjoyed our stay.

Room was spotlessly clean.
There were lots of added touches kettle and coffee machine in the room, shampoo, shower gel and moisturiser in the bathroom, TV and free WiFi.
Very comfortable bed and great nights sleep.

Disappointing
Nice room friendly staff
What spoilt our stay was a terrible evening meal.The starter was fine but we were told the sunday roast was available
We chose this.It was luke warm and my meat was full of fat
In fairness we were offered a free sweet

Fantastic breakfast
Room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was amazing. Only issue was it was a double bed not a king bed as Hotels.com put on their advert. Best to check direct with the pub before booking if this is important to you.
