A cosy overnight and great staff
Talkhouse is 15 mins from Oxford and we arrived in bad weather, room and pub very cost and staff are outstanding..so great. If there's any negative, I think cleaning details like corner, ledges, handles need attention, and an entrance may as it's an outside chalet.breakfast great and it's stay again.. it feels good to be there.

Staff were really friendly and chatty. Really nice pub to sit by the fire for a couple of drinks. Room nice and clean, decent size but metal bar to hang clothes is positioned badly and nearly knocked myself out as it was so close to bed when getting out and moving around. Would happily stay again.

Great except the bad smell
Food was great. Staff all very friendly. Sadly the bed was less comfy than hoped and had to mark down as the bathroom was very very smelly.

Good value
Great value for money. Nice pub, perfectly adequate room, clean, everything you need for an overnight stay. Pillows & duvet not the best quality but we were comfortable. Good towels. We would definitely stay again & it’s a good location if, like us, you needed to be close to the Churchill hospital or any of the Headington hospitals.

Had a wonderful stay here. The rooms are comfortable. The shower is lovely. The staff are beyond great. So attentive, friendly and accommodating. The pub is lovely with a nice selection of beers, wine and spirits. The food was also excellent. I'll definitely be staying here again in the future.

Fabulous staying
Amazing accommodation under all aspects. As a foreigner I recommend it for a wonderful british experience. The place has the rustic charm I was looking for, and is very comfortable inside. Big room and good bathroom, both very clean, and fantastic pub for the dinner. The staff also was very nice. The area is very peaceful but just few miles from the cuty.
Absolutely recommended.

Right from the start the staff were very friendly and helpful nothing was to much trouble.
Our room was different, more like a log cabin, but clean and comfortable. We liked every thing about the hotel/ pub.

Nice enough, but...
Booked with the lure of roaring fires in the pub: not so, there weren't any logs so no can do... we didn't really want to sit around all evening (as we were staying the night) in our jumpers but so be it. Other people kept their coats on. It was Monday night so maybe no chef but my Asian risotto was a porrigey mess that had no Asian flavours at all and a couple of limp pieces of pak choi that looked like leftovers. My husband's pie had nothing but potato inside and the pie crust was not edible. We just said OK when we were asked about the food because, what are the staff going to do? Offer more of the same? Room was cosy and had heating but certainly was not soundproof, we could hear next door's TV and road traffic noise. Could do better. The staff were fine but the "directors" need a rethink.
