Overview

A top 5 star small hotel, situated in the wonderful quaint chocolate box village of Wroxton, (5*) with many thatched roofs, as is the hotel itself, so do not miss this village, and see all the photos we provide for you. The grounds are very pleasantly laid out with a variety of plants, as it leads you to the foyer for the hotel. We did not see any disabled parking bays, so had to drive to car park area to the right and behind hotel. (See notes on parking). Either in advance, or asking friend to inquire at reception, a ramp can be provided and set up by staff member to allow you to enter the hotel, and what a delight that is, lovely deco, nice seating areas, beautifully laid out, and comfortable, so please do give the hotel a visit when you can. However, there’s always a however, without the help of the provided ramp, this is not a friendly hotel as to many steps involved in getting you around, but if you can manage with the ramp support, or you can manage a few steps, it is well worth the effort to visit. ( Do look at all the photos provided for you to help you make up your mind about visiting the hotel ). There is a nice little bar area with nice seating, and this leads you to the lovely restaurant, beautifully laid out and inviting, and the food itself is very good, and presented nicely for you. The drinks menu is good, a little expensive, but so what ! See our notes about the disabled room itself, and read all the bits and pieces to get the feel about what we feel about this delightful hotel. And whatever you do, make sure you drive through Wroxton village itself after your visit, it truly is a chocolate box village of the highest order. Just turn left from hotel exit onto main road for just a few feet, and turn right on the sharp bend, be careful, it’s a main road, then drive past duck pond and make sure you stop here to see all the lovely thatched cottages, before moving on through the rest of the village on your way to your next place of visit. Enjoy.

Transport & Parking

We arrived from the Banbury area, and main A422, and you pass this delightful hotel as you enter Wroxton village, but you need to drive round the bend to find its car park. The entrance itself gives you a feeling that all is going to be well. You can be dropped off by foyer entrance while driver parks up, or park yourself before making your way into hotel. However, the car park area is on a stoney and rough area, we found it hard work to get across to foyer, so lower marks given at this time for parking. If it happens to be raining on your visit you may not be very pleased about that by the time you get into hotel, as we found no disabled area provided near the foyer. But please do not let that spoil this delightful little hotel visit for you, stick it out and you will really enjoy your visit.

Access

You are able to have the driver drop you off by foyer entrance, and then go and park, or you will have to park yourself and make your way to foyer. Then you will note many steps to get you into hotel, but if you can manage steps with help, then you must not miss visiting this hotel, of which we personally give 5 stars to. If you cannot manage steps, we are pleased to tell you that a ramp is available, and set up for you by staff members, the ramp being the same as you find on railway stations, so a good proper ramp, so make use of this wonderful hotel when you are in the area of Banbury or Stratford APON Avon. Once you are up on reception desk area, then it is nice and flat to get you into the public disabled toilet , (photo provided), and to the disabled room if staying here, (photos provided for you). There are also seating available on this level by reception desk, so you can sit and relax there as well. (Photo provided). We did not see any lifts, but there may be one available, we forgot to ask.

Toilets

The disabled toilet is on reception desk level, but steps to get up to get you there, (photo provided) but staff will provide the use of the ramp to help you. You have to enter a passageway via a door, and you will need help to open it. The disabled toilet itself is smallish, but very clean, and a grab rail is provided, but you will not be able to manoeuvre much in there, (photo provided).

Staff

What a lovely visit, the staff are so nice and friendly, very willing to give you all the support you need, and Margo our waitress is so kind and willing, and gave her best for us.
