When we arrived at The Fox Inn, it was raining dark and cold so we were hoping for some lovely food in a warm establishment. We weren’t disappointed at all and one of the great things about The Fox Inn was the log burning fire in the main bar area which gave the place such a homely feel. Both the... More

Had a brilliant 2 night stay on a KGB deal. Room excellent; beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Food good especially breakfast. Grest spot for exploring the region with Little Barrington being a delightful village.

Thank you we are so pleased you enjoyed your 'Fox 2013 Pub experience' . All still being a Great British Pub whilst offering 21st Century facilities and service in a 17th century Cotswold Country pub is my personal ambition and I thank the staff for helping me fulfill that aim. More

Hubby, Me and Buddie (our dog) had KGB deal for a 2 night break. We found this Inn a very inviting place and charming place to stay while we looked around the Cotswold. It is right in a very rural location, away from the modern world ! it is set in a very quaint place, with a river running close... More

If you want a great pub, with very comfortable accommodation and good food, from which to base your Cotswolds exploration this has to be it. Pub is all slightly shabby chic but the bedrooms are straight chic; very spoiling. Breakfast and service (throughout the two day stay) couldn't be faulted. Four stars simply reflects the 4 out of 5 that... More

The location of this charming hotel by the river is just lovely. We had a one hour walk into Burford ...past a meandering river, hedgerows, fields, cattle, horses, birds busy at their nests. Absolutely charming. The staff at the Fox Inn were very attentive and friendly. Breakfast was delicious as were the evening meals. A feature for us was the... More

My wife and I recently stayed at the Inn for two nights on a Groupon deal. On arrival a member of staff from the bar showed us to our room 'Burford', which was at the rear of the hotel. We'd asked for a twin room and although the room was very nice, the beds were much narrower than single beds,... More
