Woodstock is a delightful historic village full of character and charm.
Everything is in walking distance and lots of parking in the main square., especially at the end near the church
Lots of independent shops, so perfect for browsing
A large choice of excellent places for breakfast, coffee, lunch or dinner
We love Blenheim Buttery and also The King's Arms
The walk around the lake at Blenheim Palace, Winston Churchill's childhood home is absolutely stunning, whatever the weather

Just a quiet ‘market’ town, mostly individual shops where all the staff working in them were genuinely interested in serving you and making conversation as to why you were visiting and where you’d come from.

Our trip was fundamentally to view the lights and the house at Blenheim Palace; the theme was Sleeping Beauty.
We arrived at about 3pm. Just right as dusk was setting in. We toured the house which was utterly incredible - How a person or company could put together such a phenomental piece of design, unchanging in its beauty, throughout the rooms that had been decorated to continue the theme - I do not know. To continue outside and see the light display was nothing short of sensational - it lit up the whole of the 1.5 miles of the walking tour and the evening sky. An unforgettable experience. The next day we shopped through the village enjoying its ancient buildings and some of the shops filled with objects d`art , clothes, furniture and lighting. An experience that cannot be better but can be changed...........in summer.

Woodstock is a pretty medieval town with many eateries, interesting shops, a free museum, lots of walks and, of course, Blenheim Palace nestled next to it in all its splendour.
Apart from the main Street, there are many attractive side streets to explore.
The buildings are attractive, being made from the local stone which was also used to build Blenheim Palace. They appear to ‘glow’ in the sun.

Blenheim Palace and Gardens are wonderful.
Blenheim Palace and Gardens are wonderful. Eating out is rather expensive but there are several good options.
Woodstock is easily to get around, with some lovely shops and cafes. The small museum is worth a visit.
Location was perfect for our needs, as we wanted to catch the bus into Oxford centre, and to visit Blenheim Palace, which was only a short walk away.
Plenty of options to eat out in Woodstock, but we chose to cook in each night.
TV had Netflix available and also terestial channels, which was a nice touch.
Always used to stay at The Bear Hotel opposite, but pleased that we chose to stay in this apartment on this occasion, and will definitely stay in the future.
The staff at The Crown were very friendly and helpful . Our room was lovely with a very comfortable king sized bed and nice touches like fluffy bath robes and towels and cowshed bath products . The breakfasts on both days was delicious . It is set in the beautiful town of Woodstock with lots of places to eat and drink and easy access to Blenheim Palace - a gate very near the pub .
The hotel is decorated and furnished with style and is extremely comfortable. The breakfast room is bright and the service is prompt and there is a good breakfast menu. The Marlborough Arms is in the heart of the delightful Woodstock with its many restaurants and pubs. The glorious Blenheim Palace is a short walk away. There are frequent buses to Oxford from outside the hotel.
We had a fabulous stay, everything was perfect, the staff are amazing, so helpful, the hotel is in a great location. There are no evening meal options but there is lots of choices of places to eat within easy walking distance of the hotel. There is private parking. The breakfast was great, lots of choice and the food was good quality. We'll be back. Many thanks.
Fantastic location, a few minutes walk to blenheim palace gates in Woodstock. Woodstock itself is definitely worth a visit. Very friendly and helpful staff, made you feel completely at home. Room was clean,freshly decorated, warm and comfortable. Would highly recommend and would stay again at the Blenheim Buttery if visiting the Cotswolds or Oxford.
I have stayed there for my short gateway from London and to visit Blenheim Palace. Woodstock is a magical place . The hotel was very good, the staff welcoming supportive and warm. Room just as I like it - magnificent. Enjoyed 100% my stay my room and my visit. Would recommend and will come back for sure . Thank you once again
Location, location, location! Lovely to have been able to stay so centrally. House was comfortable and just right for a short stay in Woodstock with Blenheim park virtually on the doorstep (if you know where the town gate is!) and plenty of shops to poke around and superb restaurants and pubs.
It is a nice clean friendly little place. It’s basic, but well worth it for the money. The bed was super comfortable with breakfast included and it’s in a great location. We came as we were visiting Blenheim Palace which is literally next door. Woodstock is a realty pretty place to visit.
Charming pub and inn, nestled next to the town center of Woodstock. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was cozy but not too small. The food was excellent as well, both dinner and breakfast. Had a few good chats with the guests and hosts.
Staff were very friendly and allowed us to check in earlier than advertised. Being able to park at the hotel was helpful. Location great for walking around Woodstock and getting to Blenheim Palace.
Absolutely idyllic cottage and location in the quaint town of Woodstock. Will definitely be back. The hosts were so helpful and kind when we locked ourselves out of the cottage.
Lovely character hotel located in the beautiful and historic town of Woodstock. Public areas are as you would except the interiors of the rooms are faded and need a refresh.
