Stopped for a short one night stay, nice rooms , perfect size for a few nights but might struggle if staying for longer. The rooms were clean (without being immaculate). Small bathroom but everything functional, good we walk in shower, hot and plenty of power. The staff were friendly and courteous. Breakfast in the morning was good, albeit a bit small (one of each cooked breakfast item) but had options for toast and cereal if you wanted to. All in all a great little place to stay for the price and location.

Lovely couple who run Corncroft. We were shown to our room which was nice and we had an amazing breakfast. The only downside room 3 is at the front of the house and doesn’t have double glazing ! So we were woken by the 2am pub singers the 3 am pub singer and then the 4 am pub singers who were in the room above us! The Croft is an old house and as such creeks I heard every step they took from the front door to there bed! Worst of all heard them taking a pee as if it was in our room!

Had a lovely stay for a couple of nights. The room was up on the top floor and clean with plenty of tea and coffee along with biscuits and sweets. Nice comfortable bed, in a quirky but quaint layout of the room. Definitely come again!

We really enjoyed our stay here over New Years. Warmly welcomed and this set the tone for the rest of our time there. Location is excellent for walking to Witney or a short drive to Oxford. Our room was very nice and clean with a nice view. The breakfast was fantastic, all cooked to preference. We look forward to staying again!

Super friendly and helpful owners, they kindly allowed us to use plates an cutlery for our takeaway meal. Rooms are really nice. Good wifi speed. There was a fan in the room which was a godsend. Good breakfast only let down by the slightly inferior sausage. Would be 5 stars except for the small TV and the fact there's no car park.

Very nice guesthouse in a very nice town. Owner Richard and his sister Penny were very welcoming and friendly. Lovely rooms, big comfortable bed. Excellent breakfast and very dog friendly! Great pub across the road, the Three Horseshoes. Would definitely stay there again.

Absolutely fantastic place to stay. Richard was welcoming and all staff were so friendly. The hotel was immaculate throughout and our room with a 4 poster bed was beautiful. The breakfast was delicious. I would highly recommend staying here and will be returning soon.

Comfortable stay, cosy room, warm. Had to stay in the area for my work Christmas party. Breakfast in the morning was delicious, definitely made my hangover better. Partner wasn't well, B&B owner kindly let us check out 30 minutes later. A lovely little B&B overall thank you.
