Grim. Grimy. Dingy. Badly cooked food. Unfriendly landlord. A 'locals only' place. Bampton full of dog poo too literally everywhere, on the pavements, in the churchyard, on the graves. All round grim. Did not enjoy, would not return. ....

5 out of 5. One of the most impressive Inns I have ever stayed at. It's a very vintage Inn set in a quaint village of Bampton.We booked a room for 4 people, expecting one room. However we were pleasantly surprised that ended up getting a suite with two rooms and a bathroom. The beds were really comfortable. The rooms are very affordable. The price was 5 pound more expensive than Travelodge hit we never would have got so much value for our money.Customer service was very impressive. We ordered a takeaway and the owner kindly decided to inform us when the takeaway arrived. He also went out of his way to kindly provide us with plates to make it easier for us.Breakfast was provided with rooms and everything was well cooked. Despite us coming 15 minutes, the owners still.decided to cook us breakfast. Very satisfied!

We were there for one night, me and my husband. The welcome was friendly, the quality of the room and bathroom decent, but not at 3 star level. Breakfast was good quality, but you have to opt for cooked breakfast "OR" cereals and toasts, which we found a bit awkward. Typically you can have them both at most B&Bs.

We brought my mother and step father here for a meal on a Friday night. The food is exactly what you want from a country pub, we had spicy crab bake, seafood platter, steak and ale crumble and vegetarian lasagne. …

Beware no check in until 6 pm. Host was aware we were there waiting from 2.30 pm. Very disappointing . Room was fine, then unable to provide meal as no chef . Local hotel booked out but cooked takeaway for us. Beware when you plan to stay at a town. We were 8 miles away and under town address not Bampton

Popped in, after driving by on my way home many times and had a great eveing. The bar meal I had was propper pub grub, tasty, filling and not ridiculously priced. Got talking to a few of the regulars and was made to feel really welcome. Definately worth a visit, nice to see a proper pub, and in a lovely village.
