Lovely stay at The Bell in Ducklington
Enjoyed a comfortable at The Bell Inn.
Very Olde Worlde. We had breakfadt and an evening meal on our two night stay. The food and produce used were excellent and the breakfast really was plentiful and first class. The Landlord seemed to wear several different hats and was most welcoming and polite in everything he did. We found the room, although dated, very clean and hygienic. We would not hesitate to stay again bext time qe are that way on.
The only downside was the BLOODY SCAFFOLDING.

Great 1 night stay
Very comfortable. Radiator not working but portable heater provided that heated up room very well on a very cold night. No toilet roll (easy oversight) but nicked roll from adjacent room! Breakfast outstanding! Great place for breaking long journey!

Ok for a short stay - good cooked breakfast
The Bell is a 17th-century inn with a wealth of original fearures and a lovely open fire. However, it was lacking in atmosphere and the evening meal we had was not great and quite expensive too. Our room was comfortable and clean but the heated towel rail wasnt working and bathroom mirror was off the wall. It was also a bit dark and claustophobic as there were permanent shutters over the window. On the plus side, the cooked breakfast was excellent and the host was keen to make sure we had everything we needed. The location is also very pretty and close to Oxford, Blenheim, Witney and the wider cotswolds. It was good value, given its location, but I'm not sure we'd stay there again.

Bell Inn Ducklington
Really nice Inn with super friendly staff. Room was quiet and comfortable. We had dinner and breakfast and enjoyed both meals. Would certainly re-book.
