Pros:

Gezelligheid, knusheid. Voortreffelijke keuken voor diner. Hoge prijs, maar top restaurant. Ontbijt ook geweldig.

Nice pub stay in a convenient location for Oxford
Pros:

Lovely pub in a very convenient location for getting to Oxford. There is a brilliant park and ride 12 mins drive away (Redbridge) which only costs £3.40 for the day using RingGo. For breakfast, you can choose different options from the menu, it was a big meal to start the day off - very nice and freshly cooked. The deluxe room we had was a very nice size with an ensuite bathroom.

Cons:

Not the fault of Chequers at Burcot, but the lorries which zoom past between 10pm to midnight can be quite noisy and don't stick to the 30 mph limit. Beds were too firm for my liking but that is down to preference.

Mac-nificent
Pros:

Stopped off here for a night on our way south for a wedding and what a wonderful place. Our hosts Mac, Kim and Madmaddy gave us a perfect welcome after a long drive from the North West. The room was a converted barn which was hot but fine, but the restaurant, food and service were impeccable.
Thanks to all for a very memorable stay, good luck to Madmaddy on her upcoming podcast “sort your life out” and to Mac & Km on their recent engagement.

Pros:

The service went above and beyond.
We had a problem with a television set on a World Cup evening but this was quickly rectified.
Having found out it was one of our birthdays we were treated to a late night candle and cake.

Charming consideration all round.

Pros:

Bra läge och trevlig personal.

Cons:

Outhärdligt varmt (besökte under en värmebölja), gick inte att öppna fönstret i rummet och fläkten fungerade dåligt. Var ca 30 grader i rummet hela natten.

kleines, etwas ruhiger gelegenes Hotel mit netten Mitarbeitern
Pros:

Die Einrichtung des Zimmers war sehr schön. Die Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich. Das Badezimmer war recht groß. Alles war sehr sauber. Parkplätze gab es ohne Extrakosten direkt am Hotel. Das Frühstück, ich wählte „Salmon & Eggs“ aus der Frühstücks-Menükarte war sehr lecker.
Hinweis: Das Frühstück war kein Buffet. Es konnte aus mehreren Frühstückszubereitungen aus der Frühstücks-Menükarte ausgesucht werden und wurde frisch zubereitet.

Cons:

Bei dem derzeitigen Wetter haben wir eine Klimaanlage vermisst. In unserem Zimmer war es sehr warm.
Im Zimmer befand sich über der regulären Ein-/Ausgangstür ein dauerhaft beleuchtetes Notausgangs-Schild. Das hat abends beim Einschlafen gestört, wobei ich nicht weiß, ob dies in Gastunterkünften dieser Größenordnung in UK vielleicht sogar vorgeschrieben ist.
