Welcome to the Old Swan

Part of the AA Hotel Group of the Year 2017-18, located just 15 miles from Oxford and 11 miles from Blenheim Palace, the Old Swan is nestled in 65 acres of idyllic grounds in the picturesque village of Minster Lovell. This 15th-century quintessentially English inn seamlessly blends the rural charm of its historic setting with contemporary design, luxurious comfort and delicious menus crafted from the best seasonal produce.

The magical gardens, wild flower meadows, river banks and woodland which enclose the inn come alive during the summer months – fishing, walking, croquet and tennis are the order of the day while throughout cooler weather roaring log fires provide a welcome retreat.

We had lunch at the Old Swan and it was excellent. The pies were amazing and the service very friendly and attentive. It is also a lovely spot and combines well with an amble up to the ruins of the Manor. We thoroughly recommend the pub.

Enjoyed a very good night's sleep staying in a comfortable room with fabulous bedding. Super bathroom with great shower. All staff polite and friendly and looked after us very well. Delicious supper in the bar area was well presented. Tastiest braised beef pie I have ever had!

Had a great lunch for a group of six - friendly service, good choice of food, which was delicious. High quality all round but good value. Portions not too big. The only room for improvement was that there was no alcohol free beer.

Fine food and service, although the specific beer pairing recommended for my dish wasn't available :-( ...the substitute was great. 600 years old building, but the staff is younger and the washrooms modern.

We were staying at Minster Mill but walked over to its sister hotel/restaurant The Old Swan for a meal on our second night. Lovely welcome, beautiful setting, great service, and some lovely food. Could not have asked for anything better.
