"Outstanding!"
We stayed overnight as we were playing golf at Tadmarton Heath the following day. We booked because of the proximity to the course but were blown away by the exceptional hospitality, fantastic rustic setting and delicious food both at dinner and breakfast. I have stayed at a lot of hotels and B&Bs and the breakfast served up at the Horse & Groom is one of the best I've had. Felt like a guest in the proprietors home, highly recommended.
NB Tadmarton Heath Golf Course is also first class Read less

Dislikes:
No. Not in the slightest. Nada. Nothing. Nil. Zilch. Zip.
Response from Horse and Groom Inn:
Thankyou for the lovely review - it was a pleasure having you stay with us.

The Horse & Groom is loacted in the picturesque village of Milcombe near Banbury. A quiet attractive old country inn in a lovely village close to Banbury, Stratford, Chipping Norton and the Cotswolds.With golf courses and fishing within walking distance.
At the front of the building is a lovely enclosed patio area surrounded by planters filled with a collection of herb plants. The traditional bar has a stone floor, seating for around 25 customers & a wood-burning stove at either end. There's a small snug with a darts throw and comfy leather sofa.
At the rear of the building is a dining room which can seat upto 50 people. This area has been completely re-designed as a contemporary eating area.
Historic Banbury is famed for many things, namely its cakes, the nursery rhyme “Ride a Cock Horse” and the Oxford Canal. However, as well as all this, it is a thriving town in North Oxfordshire with lots more to offer its visitors with nearby Broughton Castle providing a stunning backdrop in many films, such as “Shakespeare in Love”.
If you want some retail therapy then Bicester Designer Outlet Village is just 30 minutes drive away.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PUB & DINING ROOM IS CLOSED ON SUNDAY EVENINGS.
