Richard H.
We had no breakfast, though there were limited facilities to make our own, and the WiFi was decent. The room had an iron, hairdryer and useful mini fridge, and seemed pretty well equipped, though some renovations looked to be underway. The bed was small and not especially comfortable, but fine for a couple of nights. The fan didn't work, but after I contacted the excellent host, a replacement appeared outside. These are good-value en-suite rooms in a rustic village. There are two good pubs and a village shop that shuts at 5pm. Buses run between Wantage, Harwell Campus and Didcot, although the main road got noisy with the window open. Earplugs were provided. The TV was small, so I watched the football on my laptop.

We were only here one night for a wedding and barely used the room, but Jakkie communicated really well and was very flexible with our awkward schedule. She even helped us with a heating problem at 5:30am. I'd recommend staying and would come back if we're in the area.

The cooked breakfast was very good, with a nice range of cereals as well, and there was plenty of parking on site. I stayed four nights and was very happy with the accommodation. The room was clean and nicely presented, with good heating and plenty of hot water. The walk-in shower has good disabled access. French doors opened onto a large garden, and there were plenty of toiletries, plus a hairdryer, iron and ironing board, and a microwave to use.

Our grandson loved running around the great garden and hiding under the willow Tree. The room was good and clean, and breakfast was good too. We enjoyed our short stay, and there was plenty of parking. The only small criticism is that there wasn't any fruit with breakfast, but it wasn't a problem.

The garden was lovely, and there are little touches that show someone has thought everything through. I stayed while working locally and found it a really pleasant place. Check-in was a bit confusing when I couldn't find anyone, but I popped into Tri Beauty at the back of the building and it was all sorted. The bed was comfy, there was a bath, and the hand towel ring and bins in both the room and bathroom were useful. Plenty of sockets, including one by the bed for my phone charger, and the lighting could be adjusted from bed. Breakfast was good and served efficiently.
