This bed and breakfast sits right in Banbury, a busy market town that serves as an excellent base for exploring the Cotswolds and beyond.
The owners have created a comfortable, homely retreat where you can relax between days of exploring.
You'll be steps away from the famous Banbury Cross, the one from the nursery rhyme. It's quite something to stand there and think about the 'fine lady upon a white horse' that generations of children have heard about. The town itself rewards a good wander. You can follow the Oxford Canal along its towpaths, visit the Banbury Museum and Art Gallery to learn about local history, or spend time browsing independent shops and catching the regular market days. There are plenty of places to eat and drink scattered throughout town too.
What makes staying here particularly useful is Banbury's location. You're well positioned to reach Oxford for its university architecture and museums, Stratford-upon-Avon where Shakespeare was born, and numerous northern Cotswolds towns including Chipping Norton and Stow-on-the-Wold. You could easily base yourself here and take day trips to explore further afield, or use it as your comfortable anchor while you experience a real mix of English history, culture, and countryside without feeling rushed.
