Loved that my room was in the main house. My room was small but it faced the garden where I could watch birds and squirls. Missed the hedgehogs. My bathroom was a few steps away from the room and it was good. The shower was pretty small. I got in but could not move around so I decided to wash off in sinks. The staff were wonderful to me. The manager told me more about the Manor House and it's age. At one time my family lived there so it was exciting to be able to stay. Breakfast was awesome! So many choices for breakfast. I went into Wantage a few times which I find very lovely. I love the countryside. The sheep were adorable. I loved Charney Manor.

Beautiful, peaceful, retreat centre

Not really a hotel, but a beautiful, quiet, ancient retreat centre run by Quakers offering b&b. Perfectly comfortable, and a lovely garden, but some of the facilities are a little dated and tired (the shower taps were hard to figure out for example). Dont let that stop you coming though, it will be good for your soul as well as your body.

No staff at check in, place deserted just a room key left on table. Room small dismal damp carpet. No ensuite. Bathroom along corridor grotty and shabby. Door locks very difficult to use. Overall very unpleasant place, never again. Nice gardens. Very expensive for such an unpleasant stay

Great breakfast but dodgy heating and plumbing

The radiators didn't work, so heating was provided by 3 electric heaters at different corners of the room. Things had clearly been like that for a while as each radiator was labelled with our room number. Also, there was a regular noise every 5 minutes or so from the pipework which wasn't a problem during the day but which was annoying at night. Other than that the room was nice and the continental breakfast was excellent

LOVED IT! If you want to experience English inns, stay here. Beautiful, peaceful, albeit very European with the room configuration and bathroom setups, but a very fair trade off for the environment. That is actually one of the reasons I chose it, reliving childhood experiences of quaint English inns. Beautiful, peaceful and affordable. Right near Bibury Trout Farm & the Cotswolds or, I suggest the small village of Carterton for a nice slice of pizza.

Be warned! No meals and terrible breakfast

Probably the worst continental breakfast ever! Breakfast is “served” from 7.00 until 9.00. We arrived just before 8.00am. No staff visibly on duty, and empty baskets and empty plates with one slice of salami remaining. We found a gentleman in the kitchen who said “If nothing is there then its all gone. If you can wait 25 minutes I will heat two croissants.” Far worse than Fawlty Towers.

2/10 Terrible

Manor House is just awful

I don’t know if the non main house rooms are better but my room in the Main house was so awful I had to check out. After a meeting arrived back at hotel late , it was dark and dangerous, couldn’t get in main door, no reception, finally telephoned someone and had to put my shoulder against the door to get in! The room was awful. Incredibly dated and basic, bits all over the floor. The heating didn’t work, turned on a heater and filled the room with a smell of hot dust. The overflow in the bathroom ran continuously and sounded like the niagra falls and every few minutes a fan kicked in like a train passing. On the bed were two tiny towels. There was no bedside table so you had to walk across the room to turn off the nearest light and somehow find your way back into bed in the pitch dark. The bathroom resembled student halls. The corridor carpets were stained and basic. All staff disappeared early evening so there was no one to assist. I checked out at 10.30 pm which shows how bad it was. I have since found reports of the fan and toilet overflow on other websites so this is clearly known about but not attended too. With the help of Hotels.com I did manage to get a refund. !

Terrible hotel, great staff.

Terrible first night in tiny single room in the Manor, couldn't control heating, room far too hot, open windows couldn't be secured so rattled all night. Squeaky, bouncy bed. 'Private bathroom' actually separate from room so had to lock room (lock impossible to understand), take massive bathroom key and towells to bathroom, which was very uninviting, lock up and unlock again. Didn't appreciate label on shower dispenser saying Do Not Remove, or one above taps saying Hot Water - ??? Felt like an institution. Although almost empty, all people staying were housed next to each other in the Manor, so when some of them decided to have a party we all had to suffer. The walls are very thin, and my bed actually shook when neighbours stomped about. Breakfast was what you'd expect from a 3 star place, but coffee was undrinkable. Only allowed to use 2 of the tables; again, unfriendly and institutional. I had such a bad night that I decided to leave rather than complete my stay, but happily for me met the head of housekeeping on my way out (whoever was supposed to actually be in charge had not arrived), and she was brilliant. She persuaded me to look at a much better room, in the barn, where there was no one else booked in next to me, and I had a huge (though still pretty institutional) bathroom, the heating could be turned off and the windows opened, and the bed was good. So glad I didn't have to look for another place to stay, and slept much better. Thank you Lisa!

Ihana majoitus kauniissa rauhallisessa ympäristössä Englannin maaseudulla. Juuri sopiva pysähdys rosdtripillä. Auton sai kätevästi parkkiin, huone oli tilava (joskin vähän vilpoisa) ja aamiainen kauniissa ruokailuhuoneessa oli kattava. Puutarha oli kaunis ja lampaitakin pääsi ihmettelemään. Henkilökuntaa ei tavattu. Saavuimme illalla noin klo 20 ja meille oli jätetty avain sekä selkeät ohjeet.
