Award-winning gastro pub hotel on the River Windrush in the Cotswolds
Riverside Dining and Local Produce
The Fox At Barrington serves award-winning seasonal menus in a 17th-century pub setting on the banks of the River Windrush. Food is offered in the pub bar, the riverside conservatory, and on the outdoor terrace overlooking the gardens. The landlord's father, a recently retired local butcher of 50 years, prepares the meats, and the kitchen offers specialized dietary options including vegan choices.
Accommodations
The hotel has seven individually styled en-suite guest rooms, including four luxury river mews rooms with Cotswold stone walls and wooden beams. Each room provides a TV, private bathroom, and fishing rights for a private area of the river with expert lessons available. Pet-friendly accommodations are available, and all rooms offer comfortable beds with a focus on cleanliness.
Location and Outdoor Activities
The Fox At Barrington is set on the River Windrush in the Cotswolds countryside, three miles from Burford. Guests have access to cycling, fishing, and horse riding directly from the property, with expert fishing lessons on site. Nearby attractions include Cotswold Wildlife Park, Burford Village, and Witney's historical sites, with Oxford and Stratford-Upon-Avon reachable in about 40 minutes by car.
Pet-Friendly and Family Offerings
The hotel provides pet-friendly accommodations and a warm, welcoming atmosphere for families. Children are catered for with kids' meals and a garden setting with ample space. Free parking and free WiFi are included, and the hotel's countryside location makes it a base for outdoor recreational activities.
