Visit England Logo Inspector comments
"Beautiful Tudor inn offering cosy rooms and excellent British dining"
Overview
On the outskirts of Oxford, the Grade II-listed Bear and Ragged Staff offers a range of dining options along with well-appointed accommodation. The friendly pub has much old-world charm – flagstone floors, mullioned windows, roughcast stone walls and large fireplaces – but with a contemporary twist. The smart restaurant offers forward-thinking British food, making good use of local produce.

About the area
Located at the heart of England, Oxfordshire enjoys a rich heritage and varied scenery, with Oxford’s elegant streets a highlight for visitors. The landscape encompasses open chalk downland, picturesque rivers and attractive villages, while northwest of Oxfordshire is home to the sleepy backwaters of Abingdon, Wallingford, Wantage, Watlington and Witney that reveal how Oxfordshire’s old towns evolved over the centuries.
