The location is wonderful. The grounds are beautiful and quiet. The cottage is extremely well equipped. The hosts are quick to respond. I have stayed here a few times now and will stay here again.
I used to live in Witney. Came back to London, where I was born & raised, 15 years ago but my father & children (err, all mid-late 30's) live in that area, so I visit regularly. Summer, The Fleece for lunch outside overlooking the Green. Taxi to Hailey since The Bird in Hand is special. There is the blanket museum because it's a bit of a give away that Witney has a wool exchange, a mill and a history! Plenty of walks & fresh air. Almost forgot, Roman ruins https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-57510142

Witney is a great little town.
Witney is a great little town. Parking in West Oxon is free in all council car parks - a rarity these days. So many places to visit - Cotswold Wildlife Park & Gardens, Cogges Farm Museum, Blenheim Palace... it goes on. Many cafes, bars, pubs and restaurants in town. Independent shops in Witney and nearby villages/towns. It's just lovely.

Witney is a lovely little town, although the roads were very busy and noisy until you reached the quieter, traffic-restricted area in the centre. It has a wide range of places to eat and drink and a good selection of shops - chain and independent. We were very disappointed with the attitude of staff at The Plough, as we were refused a menu, even though others were ordering and eating, our drinks order wasn't completed fully and I was accused of being rude when I asked for both matters to be resolved. Needless to say, we didn't stay. San Marzano, just further down the High Street, was the complete opposite - food and service exemplary.

Witney was a stop to our air show destination. Pub, great.
Witney was a stop to our air show destination. Pub, great. Parking, not so. Restaurant menu over pretentious.
Loved the welcome. Unfortunately lights within room not working/ useless, air .com unit didn't respond. No instructions for coffee machine. A lot of style over substance.

Great place.
Great place. Very Central, close to Oxford, not too far from Stratford, and so on. Friendly, town. Could be a bit more friendly, can't say it's exactly Wholesome and Quint. But it is a nice old town with a good vibe of its own.

The centre of Witney is easy and pleasant to walk around,...
The centre of Witney is easy and pleasant to walk around, with a variety of shops, restaurants and cafes all easily accessible. There are frequent buses to Oxford (for colleges, museums, main railway connections, etc) and Woodstock (for Blenheim Palace). There is also a regular bus service across the Cotswolds to Cheltenham. Road access to Cotswold villages, walks and scenery is very good.
Whitney was a perfect base for our 6 days exploring the Cotswolds. It was near Oxford and within easy driving distance to the many picturesque villages nearby.
Our apartment was at the mill/commercial end of Witney, but we were able to walk the historical centre, supermarket, restaurants and pubs. We valued having en site parking.
The apartment was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.
Everything was excellent such a shame I only started to stay here at the end of my course as id been in the premier inn until now, and this hotel blows the Premier Inn out of the water!! Amazing room, food and great extras such as coffee making machine in room and Netflix. the manager David even let me check in from 10am instead of 3 pm so that I could spend the day working on course work. Will be back for sure :)
Staff were friendly & helpful. Restaurant was exceptionally good. We had dinner and everyone was very happy with all of their choices. Breakfast was equally good with an extensive menu suitable for all dietary needs.
We loved the animal shape made with towels, ours was a crocodile holding the tv remote when we checked into our room which had air conditioning.
A beautiful clean property close to the town centre of Witney and fairly close to Oxford. The kitchen had the essentials which was lovely and the interior was modern as well. The host is more than happy to help with any questions on the local area or queries and is also very flexible. We will be returning after a wonderful stay, couldn’t recommend enough
I stayed at two hotels that weekend, and I say the Blue Boar was a nicer hotel out of the two I stayed. The area was lovely with plenty of shops and many different walks to explore, the hotel staff was very friendly and the food was brilliant both dinner and breakfast, would highly recommend to visit.
The hotel and staff were lovely, excellent location for Oxford and the cotswolds, the room was very comfortable and immaculate, breakfast had a great choice of fresh, tasty food, both hot and cold, the staff were friendly and welcoming, helping with every enquiry we had.
Rooms were large and super clean. The bathroom was updated and also very clean. We loved the restaurant. Breakfast was great but we also enjoyed the restaurant and the menu for dinner. All well done! Thank you to the wonderful staff! Great visit. We highly recommend!
Excellent hotel, very nice staff and really good food. The rooms were to a good standard and the staff were very conscious of measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Would certainly recommend the hotel and restaurant, including the breakfast.
I love Witney! The hotel is nicely situated around the town center. We thought it had really small bathrooms which were inconvenient. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good. Freshly made eggs and plenty of everything.
Excellent location for an evening event in Witney. A friendly welcome from Anna. Room warm and clean with comfy bed. Ensuite compact but spacious shower cubicle. Very good breakfast. Opposite a pub if evening meal required.
The hotel had lots of character. The bedding, towels and bathroom were clean. The beds were very comfy. The staff were very helpful and attentive, the breakfast was lovely and the location was excellent
Loved our stay in the superior room at this lovely hotel. Very comfy room. Wished we could have stayed a couple of days. Restaurant was fabulous. Drinks outside by the Thames was perfect.
Breakfast was excellent, the hotel was very well presented, just a little bit further than Witney than we had anticipated, however it was very relaxing and pleasant
