    The property is exactly as described….right on the railway line. As the windows are quite old, you could hear the trains going past clearly and some actually shook the windows.

    The staff were really friendly and helpful and the food was absolutely excellent and very well priced.

    Great place to stay for Abingdon. Have been several times. Rooms are slightly dated but everything works well and the food is great. Pub food, good beer and a cooked breakfast - what more do you want?

    I expected to hear the trains as we chose the family room which was very close to the railway, but I didn't expect them to be so loud that the beds shook with the vibration.

    Breakfast was very good, beds were comfortable and there was plenty of hot water.

    Did not realise until the second day that they had excellent real ale in the other bar from the one I went to on the first day - but probably my own fault!

    Unpretentious, lovely combination of a local pub with ordinary but very good pub grub and a very comfortable room, wonderfully friendly staff, and fantastic location 30 seconds from the railway station

    To be expected due to the location, but the trains passing by are very noticeable.

    The staff was very helpful and the stay went perfectly. I've tried both the breakfast and the dinner and enjoyed everything.

    For the value for money, there was very little to be critical about. I noticed the radiator didn't appear to work but then the heat from the one in the main bedroom soon filtered through.

    This stay was exceptional value for money and 5 minutes away from my appointment the following day. The staff were friendly and welcoming with one lady pretty much looking after everything. My evening meal was very enjoyable as was breakfast the following morning. My room was a good size, clean and comfortable with plenty of electricity sockets and good WiFi reception. I loved all the railway memorabilia in the main reception, bar and restaurant area and the place had a real family feel to it.

    The freight trains roll by in the night which I liked hearing but light sleepers may not. Expected when it's called the Railway Inn!

    Convenient for Culham Campus and Train, less so for Abingdon without a car. Good breakfast, lots of tailored choice. Basic pub b and b accommodation. Clean and warm

    The only negative, if you call it that, was the tv in the room was very small and the towels provided were a little small (hardly fit round me)

    The breakfast was freshly cooked to order and piping hot and the coffee was great. Given the proximity to the train lines they were barely heard (more felt) in my room. The room was clean and well presented and the water pressure in the shower was great.

    Ideal location for what I needed. I was greeted by staff who could not have been more friendly. Room was clean and comfortable and had everything needed for an overnight stay. The Full English was outstanding. I would rather give my money to a locally run business than a national chain.
