We absolutely loved this beautiful place. The atmosphere was so relaxed, the grounds and rooms were lovely. Felt like a little holiday rather than a hotel stay. The staff were really helpful and the food was beyond amazing!!! Breakfast service was super attentive and faultless. My partner couldn't stop talking about how lovely it was, think he would've swapped me for one the pork chops or a pack of the sausages if he had the chance!! Got back today and already looking at staying again.

Chose this place as a half way point between friends houses to meet to catch up. Have to say was very disappointed with the service received by some of the staff. Had a meal and asked for pork (seeing as it's a pig farm was expecting good pork) but then asked how we would like it cooked! Then when it arrived we checked that it was pork to be told 'It should be' -but wasn't!! Then when we had finished our meal we asked for a drink outside to be told that the pub had closed (was about 10.20pm) and they had run out of ice and lemon and could we bring our glasses back in when we were done!! Rooms nice and the 'Wallow' was an unexpected nice addition. Shame the record player no longer working. Loads of potential but missed the mark so many times.

The Royal Oak is outstanding in every respect. If you're staying a night, its facilities are unusually generous and extensive; if you're eating, the menu and the food are great; and if you just want a drink, there's a bar area and plenty of seating outside. The staff are lovely. Plus there's plenty of local information, books, games and events, not to mention a farm shop. If you can tear yourself away, visit Wayland's Smithy a couple of miles away along the Ridgeway.

Welcoming and informative check-in. Guests have use of a separate lounge & kitchen with honesty bar. We used the map provided to enjoy a walk around the area. Room was a good size with big, comfortable bed. We ate in the restaurant in the evening. Great meal but it was very quiet so lacked a bit of atmosphere. The breakfast the next morning was plentiful with excellent produce. Would return if staying in the area again. Thank you.
