    Nothing.

    We loved the village location, which was quiet picturesque and friendly 😀 It was a short drive to Bicester village. The Room was lovely and had a nice feel at home feel to it. The bathroom was just BEAUTIFULLY and had to take advantage of the freestanding bath 🛁 The pub/restaurant was very nice, very good food and attentive staff. Free parking Dressing gowns Toiletries Lots of attention to detail Etc, etc, etc Would definitely recommend. Our room was longhorn 👍

    Spent too much time ducking to really enjoy the stay felt like a hunchback ! i appreciate that its an old style building but seemed to be an awful lot of low beams! No fridge food prices downstairs in the restaurant area ridiculous even for a bistro pub £17.95 for an unremarkable lasagna served with 2 sorry looking overdone pieces of garlic bread should at least have come with a salad ! our starters of king prawns and chorizo was swimming in oil overall flattered to deceive shame as i had heard good things from local friends perhaps might consider a fairer priced set menu in the future might bring in more customers as well you never know !

    Nice fresh feel to the refurbished room spacious bathroom comfy bed soft pillows coffee machine and kettle sofa seemed to be no expense spared with the modern twist in the décor to a character property staff seemed welcoming enough

    The coffee machine was difficult to work, so ordinary sachets would've been better.

    The staff and facilities were great. Locals were welcoming as well, which made the overall experience brilliant. I would highly recommend.

    The staff at The Pointer were exceptionally friendly, helpful and welcoming, not only to us but also our dog. The room was incredibly comfortable, spacious and clean. Parking was easy, the pub was great, good supply of dog treats and vegan options on the menu, the village of Brill was lovely to walk around.

    Nothing All good and as we had hoped

    A superb place to stay in a beautiful and relaxing setting Breakfast had a very good selection of options and we thought the bar area perfect for us with our dog Food was of a very good standard and fairly priced Might have been improved only by a set breakfast option to include juice and pastries.

    Bathroom was a little tired but still clean overall. Pillows were way too soft.

    We booked one night as we were in the area for another event. Pretty village with this pub at the heart of it. Warm welcome received. Spacious room with lovely little extras like fresh milk and bottled chilled water. Fabulous hearty breakfast and good coffee.

    The only reason I marked the property down slightly was the fact that they charged extra for a small dog. I know this is generally the case but my view is that the room should be thoroughly cleaned whether there is a dog or not (which it was by the way), so why the extra cost.

    We had a lovely room that was in a building across the road from the pub. Very comfortable large bed and a smart spacious bathroom. Soft fluffy towels / bathrobes and quality toiletries. We ate at the pub where the food was really good quality and the customer service spot on.

    My 2nd stay at The Pointer. Very comfortable beds - just right after an exhausting business trip. Excellent food, friendly staff. The village around is very nice and you should definitely take a walk to enjoy the landscape and see the windmill.
