Good venue for dog owners. Adjacent fields and walks . Bedrooms for dog owners a little tucked away . Gorgeous food but pricey . Breakfast good but let down by tepid coffee and cheap bread for toast . Overall very comfortable.

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.

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.

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.

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!!

A lovely pretty location. Staff were friendly and attentive, kitchen could be a little slow at times and food was ok. Some aspects of room needed some care, radiators needed bleeding although oil rads were supplied, loose toilet seat and taps. We still enjoyed our stay as these were not big issues.
