The Punchbowl Inn

We stayed 1 night and had a great stay. The room was lovely and the bed extremely comfortable. From the moment we arrived, the staff were very welcoming and polite. We had our evening meal there and the food was delicious. Breakfast the next morning was also very good. We wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

If you would like to stay in a place where the service is from the 1970’s, then this place is for you! I was informed at check in that nothing can be charged to your room. Breakfast only ran for 90 minutes and I needed to fill out every detail of my car and display a permit to use the car park. Check out is at 10am and at 10.15 (sorry I was a bit late! As modern service standards are usually 11am) the cleaning lady walked in (no knocking) whilst I was getting dressed and demanded I left. I explained I was without trousers and couldn’t leave currently, she then told me that it wasn’t her problem (I think it may have been) and I had to go. I told her this was not possible due to my undress, she then told me she was going to get ‘the boss’. The boss never came and I was out by 10.30 and no one was even there! Breakfast: They don’t offer anything other filter coffee and the hot menu is just old fashioned fry up options. Also; Displays of tampax, cheap razors and kids sweets and toys everywhere also are a little dated This property doesn’t match up to other inns in Woodstock and certainly doesn’t match modern day service standards for the price point.. Shame, as the location and finish of the bedrooms are nice.

Three old school friends stayed in the big room at the front which was perfect for all of us to be together. The room was beautifully decorated with a spacious walk-in shower. The room had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the location was convenient for everything. Staff were all friendly.

Terrible Hotel & Restaurant Food, service, staff horrific I would not recommend Complained to the owner Tony by e mail and had a reply of ‘thanks for your comments’ Unbelievable DO NOT VISIT Terrible Hotel and Restaurant which is such a shame as location is perfect

I came here with my parents and little sister for her birthday. Waited an hour for our food. The rest of my family are vegans. My stepdad asked for a pizza with vegan cheeze, and my little sister asked for the vegan burger. After an hour, our meals turned up. The cheese on my stepdad’s pizza wasn’t vegan. My little sister’s “vegan” burger had a slab of halloumi in it. We left, and had a decent meal elsewhere, with speedy service.

Room was lovely, cozy and very clean with plenty of coffee & tea. 10 o’clock check out is a bit too early 😅

Very comfy bed and very clean

The Punch Bowl is a lovely old village pub, full of individual character and charm. Really welcoming and friendly staff, nice old bar, great food. It's right in the middle of Woodstock village, and just over the road from Marlborough Palace and grounds.

Had a lovely meal at The Punchbowl. Meals were well cooked, well presented and delicious. Generous portions. The choice of meals and drinks is very good. Staff were very friendly and isn’t rush us as all, even though they were closing by the time we left. Would definitely revisit and recommend.
