Saved from closure by film producer Tim Bevan and his artist wife, Amy Gadney, this honeyed-stone 17th-century village pub reopened in the summer of 2020, beautifully refurbished, with cosy bar, beautiful rustic-chic bedrooms, very superior pub grub and a full calendar of events.

A 16th-century village inn has been reinvented as a fun, bohemian hangout, with rustic-chic bedrooms, upcycled furniture, modern artworks, good pub grub and an irrepressible sense of fun.

Between the Thames and Windrush, this 17th-century pub blends all the charm of a traditional village local with rugs on flagstone floors, comfy sofas and log-burner, country-chic bedrooms and gastropub cooking.

Modern artworks by the co-owner and local artists adorn this picture-perfect Cotswolds village inn, with country-style bedrooms, that serves local ales, cream teas and updated pub fare in the conservatory and garden.

'A stone's throw from everything Oxford has to offer', Jeremy Mogford's second hotel (see the Old Bank) impressed our inspectors with its 'peaceful, classy vibe'.

Jeremy Mogford's conversion of the old Barclays Bank gets credit from a Guide insider for its 'brilliant location, right in the city centre'.

A popular local, this 17th-century coaching inn has cottage-style-cum-contemporary ground-floor bedrooms, a seasonal menu of classics and specials in the bar and restaurant, and a garden bar with bucolic views.

'A really nice place to stay, in a lovely quiet village setting,' this beautifully renovated 17th-century thatched inn lives anew as a local pub with rooms. Manager Claire Lenkowiec and chef Valerio Grimaldi-Plant run the show for the owners and, by George, they get it right!

Smart accommodation combines with the ambience of a country pub, replete with beams, flagstones and open fires, and a restaurant serving modern British cooking at this Cotswolds hotel.

Stylish contemporary bedrooms, an award-winning breakfast with a speciality porridge menu, and a suntrap garden all appeal at this smart B&B in a village eight miles from Oxford city.
