The hotel's restaurant serves Mediterranean-inspired cuisine prepared in an open kitchen where guests can watch their meals being cooked. Menu options include wood-fired pizzas, grilled dishes, and a full English breakfast cooked to order each morning. The bar hosts regular social events and themed nights, and special brunch offerings come with bottomless drink options.

Accommodations

The hotel offers 19 individually decorated rooms, each reflecting Witney's heritage through quirky design details like exposed beams or curved plaster walls. Some rooms feature four-poster beds, and bathrooms are stocked with L'Occitane toiletries. Guests staying in the annexe have direct access to a courtyard with outdoor furniture.
