They advertise air conditioning. There was none. It was ridiculously hot in a third floor room.
I chose the property for being 30 mins from Blenheim Palace - the reason for my visit. I liked that there was a free car park. Check-in was quick and staff were pleasant and gave me all key info I needed - breakfast, booked a table for dinner, emergency phone number.
My room was clean and tidy, but was very hot opening or closing the window didn't make any difference. I only stayed one night, but there was plenty of hanging space for clothes.
Dinner was ok reasonable choice of pub food menu. All 3 of us enjoyed our meals.
Pleasant stay. Great shower, large room, quiet night, very helpful staff and excellent breakfast. Let down a little by small double bed (felt smaller due to size of room) and no WIFI (apparently they were having issues with it but the way it was described it seemed to be a regular thing and there seemed to be an acceptance of it not working which is not great at all).

friendly knowledgeable staff. Good value for money
The property in parts could do with a bit of TLC we were in the oldest part of the property quirky but dated.
Hotel rooms very absolutely shocking couldn’t even complain to the staff as reception wasn’t manned after 5pm absolute joke! Avoid!
Woke up covered in bites and itching all over, room was depressing, cracked windows, damp and mouldy carpets, bile can’t believe it hasn’t been shut down!
Cheerful and very helpful staff and excellent food..Will visit again if in the area.

A mixed experience
The evening meals and breakfast in the restaurant were very good. Even though the breakfast staff were busy and struggled to get meals out in a timely manner, they still removed the self service counter before all breakfasts were served by 10.00 am !! and did not notify guests. This was poor customer service.

The staff were exceptionally good, friendly, welcoming and professional.
The property is clean and well looked after, however while it is in reasonable condition it needs a large number of window frames replacing due to clear indications of rot which will not be solved with paint.
It is clear that some management processes are preventing the best operation.
Some problems with breakfast. Coffee was cold. Asked for fresh but that was cold as well. Scrambled egg had clearly been cooked some time previously - rubbery!
Apart from that, all OK.

Short stay at Dog House
Hotel is a little tired, limited wifi and phone signal, breakfast good and although understaffed, staff were helpful and friendly.
The most drab and dreary room, in need of a complete make over.
The shower hose made it impossible to use without holding it. It either went straight to the wall or the curtain.
No remote control for the television.
Food for dinner quantity over quality.
Coming from Australia, we found the hotel unique in dso many ways, particularly the age and history.

We both loved the accommodation. It was convenient to get to, had ample parking and we were made welcome. slight down side was that the window in our room were not able to be opened and so the room got very stuffy at night in the heat. maybe fans would be a good idea.
