Excellent location in charming countryside and just a short drive to Witney and Burford. Staff were helpful and welcoming. Historic property with traditional pub feel, a log fire, cosy armchairs and nice gardens. Food in the pub was standard pub fare, fairly average and expensive but you are paying for the location. We had a lovely stay here.

Nice area, very cozy and welcoming. The surroundings are really cute. Prepare to come with boots because the walks can be very muddy.

One night stay in a superior room with king size bed. Comfortable room with heating on full so turned down radiators. Kettle and Coffee machine but no milk so fetched some. Nice bar area and large dining hall. Prebooked dinner at Mill House which is sister hotel and across the road and had breakfast there as no chef turned in.

Beautiful place and the food was amazing! Just need to put a mirror, plug and chair in the same area in the room and it would be perfect (minor thing in a room that was otherwise lovely).

Recently stayed at the Old Swan for our wedding anniversary and it was a really nice hotel and restaurant. Lovely little gem in the middle of the countryside, a building with a lot of character. The room was nice and the bed was comfortable. The shower was good, although would be no good if you were very tall! The games room in the pub was great, we spent our afternoon playing shuffleboard and a Cotswolds version of monopoly. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel, both of which were very nice. The staff were attentive and friendly. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Brilliant stay, check in was quick and smooth. Show to our rooms which were clean and spacious with large king bed. Staff were excellent during the stay and even did us a meal which wasn't on the recently updated menu. Breakfast freshly cooked and again adapted the choice for my colleague.

After visiting the pub before checking in, things looked promising, it was very lovely and cosy. We checked in and were shown to our 2 rooms, through the side entrance. The entry way was dark tired and messy. The rooms at first glance looked lovely when first shown them, however once we had settled in the rooms were tired, dark and dirty. Lots of stains on the walls, floors and soft furnishings. The bathroom of the Harold was boiling, what was first thought to be underfloor heating was instead confirmed as the hot pipes, it was unbearable and heated the room up too. The Simpson room was dusty and no slippers were supplied but some old used ones were found in the dressing table drawer. The advert said there was air conditioning in both rooms, there was not. The Harold room was by a gate which was right next to a gate which was being used constantly. Both rooms were underneath family’s and a child could be heard running around. Other guests were not considerate of others in their rooms and so we were awake from around 6am. A poor hotel and a poor stay! Do not recommend.

We really enjoyed staying at The Old Swan. Old building with lots of character. Could not fault service or cleanliness. A little pricey, but worth it. Would definitely recommend and we would not hesitate to book again.

Okay! However short staffed. Not an over welming experience. Would have expected a much better staff friendlier atmosphere for the price of the room! Food just okay! Not worth the money to stay there!!

Very much enjoyed the quirkiness of staying in a 15th century inn! Our room had wonderful beams and rafters. Really interesting history - Richard III stayed there. The staff were always helpful, attentive and polite, and the food was good. Overall a great place for our short break, with Witney and Burford in easy reach.
