The Boxing Hare - (Near Oxfordshire, South East)

shelley spring We had the most wonderful stay at The Falkland Arms. Ernesto and the team were absolutely amazing from the moment we arrived. The pub itself is cosy, comforting and full of charm and as a bonus it’s really dog friendly too. We stayed here as we were travelling to see Clarkson’s Farm and it was absolutely perfect. If you’re thinking of doing the same thing, this place is a little gem. The food was incredible, we had the bacon chop, the steak and the chicken gnocchi, all cooked beautifully and full of flavour. Our room was gorgeous, warm and welcoming and breakfast was fabulous, great choice to start the day. We absolutely loved our stay and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend!

VP We were so lucky to stumble upon The Cinnamon Stick. Located in the small village of Middle Barton where you’d expect nothing around, this restaurant is a total standout. It offers a true taste of Lebanese hospitality and home-style cooking. ​ The quality of food is incredible. Almost everything is made in-house (except for the gelato), and you can really taste the difference. The dishes are authentic, fresh, and truly delicious. It is rare to find such high-quality Mediterranean flavors in this area. ​ The staff is lovely and provides genuine Lebanese hospitality. You can tell the team cares about their guests and the food they serve. They made us feel very welcome from the moment we walked in. ​ If you are anywhere near Oxfordshire, this place is worth the detour. Huge thanks to the team for their service and for bringing such amazing flavors to a quiet corner of the country!

Julie Jacobsen My family and I visited the Cotswolds from the United States back in June 2025, and while I’m a bit late in posting this, the experience was so exceptional I had to share. We were searching for the quintessential English pub experience, and we found it here. We loved it so much we actually returned a second time for dinner. The food was absolutely delicious, but what truly set this place apart was the hospitality. Guy, the owner, is perhaps the warmest and friendliest person we met on our travels. He took the time to sit with us and chat about our trip, making us feel like locals rather than tourists. If you want authentic charm and a genuine welcome, this is the place to be!

Joshua Ashton Really lovely country pub with rooms. Makes for a very nice night stay. The pub has a great rural feel, and the food was excellent quality. The staff were also superb, attentive and friendly but not fussy. We felt really welcome from start to finish. Room was comfortable, cosy and clean. We highly recommend if you are looking for a quiet cotswolds night or two away in an idyllic setting.

Angelo Serra We happened upon Wyatts completely by accident. Literally by accident as we had a flat tire about 100M away and it was the closest spot to stop. We ended up having lunch in the team room and hung out for a couple of hours while we waited for AA to arrive. The tea room has a beautiful overlook of the countryside and all of the food was excellent. We started with tea service (loved the sugar cubes), and had a wonderful soup and shared some chips. After lunch we wandered the gift shop, made a couple of purchases, and walked throughout the greenhouses. The staff was all very kind during our unintended stay. We enjoyed the flowers and the views of the countryside. I cant think of a better place to have been "stuck" for a few hours.

Colleen Evans Staying in the area with work and called in without a booking; I was immediately impressed with how busy it was for a Wednesday evening, always a good sign of a quality place! I was welcomed warmly and shown to a table. The food was amazing from start to finish and I was made to feel very well looked after. Its a shame I dont actually live nearby otherwise I would certainly be going back there!
