Beautiful hotel, by the river.

6/10 Good

Came for a birthday get away! The hotel itself is lovely lots of different walks and plenty to see. Only downfalls were when we arrived to check in the room may not have been ready yet as the door was already open and there was no slippers or marshmallows on the first night.
Georgina, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Was a lovely stay but some bits need sorting in the rooms. No bathroom light switches?!. Curtain broken in room. Tried to book a meal in the restaurant. They took my number to give me a call back but never did.. The grounds and buildings are stunning. Lovely walks around close by.

Perfect quiet family getaway

We had an amazing stay at Minster Mill! The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating and made our stay especially enjoyable. We visited with our three young sons and they loved exploring the grounds and playing outside. It was a beautiful property and very welcoming to our family.

Exceptional from start to finish

Absolutely stunning hotel in the Cotswolds, really picturesque location and great facilities in a super comfy and stylish room! Very attentive front of house and wait staff in the restaurant. Delicious well prepared food too! Highly recommend and will definitely be visiting again in the future!

Not ideal for business stays

Business stop over. Arrived before check-in time but no effort to see when room would be ready. Was staying in pub part of hotel but they didn't have my booking, not a good start. Very poor phone signal at hotel, often no coverage at all, and internet wasn't connecting so was left unable to operate for work as I would normally do on a trip like this. Room as tired, especially bathroom. Expected better for £170/night. Good things: comfy bed, quiet, excellent food. Unfortunately outweighed by poor things, won't stay again for business, doesn't suit it.
Peter, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The Hotel was lovely . But there was a wedding on the night of our stay and there was not enough staff . The bar was understaffed and waited for ages for drinks . The bar staff kept disappearing to the wedding . The bar kept running out of drinks and cocktail mixers .
James, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Property is located in lovely scenic surroundings, on site food and drink options and good spa. However property is now dated in areas and needs some updating and additional staff numbers are needed

Lovely setting, but

Lovely setting, room relatively clean, carpets had a lot of dirty stains, cobwebs in the roof, bad drain smell in the bathroom, walls very thin , could hear morning alarms from the room next door, also not aware of the hidden cost for using the small swimming pool ,

Minster Mill hotel stay

We were celebrating our 20th Wedding anniversary so wanted a spa hotel and something a bit special. First impressions were very good and we started our afternoon in the spa of which I couldn't fault. The 2 staff were really welcoming and the treatments were fantastic. The spa facilities were really lovely. Our room wax really nice and spacious...we had booked a suite so that we could have more space and a bath. However, when I went to use the bath, the plug wouldn't fit properly. It didn't even have a seel, so unfortunately I couldn't use the bath! We paid £315 for this room specifically to have a bath tub, it was such a shame.

Lovely Stay

Amazing stay in a quiet little village about 20 minutes drive from Oxford, Burton on the water. 5 minute drive from Burford which is amazing and 5 minutes from Diddly Sqt. Farm and pub. The Swan pub opposite is so cosy.

6/10 Good

Lovely surroundings but...

The hotel is set into lovely quiet surroundings and has a lot of potential but their are so many little problems here, for 1 no aircon which made for an uncomfortable stay, they did provide a fan but it's not going to do what Aircon would, the rooms are expensive, we had a junior suite and it might as well have been a standard room, broken tile in the bathroom, missing plug in the sink, seems no one can decide what colour the finishing should be it's a mix of chrome, brass, black & white! The whole restaurant setup is weird meals in the hotel and breakfast across the road? And the wilding experience which we paid £65 per person for, was just weird, not a taster and not tapas, it was like a 3 course meal brought out all at the same time, don't know what the chef is thinking but it misses the mark, One positive are the staff, who are friendly and helpful.

Beautiful Property, But Poor Service and Uncomfort

We stayed at the Minster Mill during summer and, while the grounds and setting are truly beautiful, the experience left a lot to be desired. The rooms have no air conditioning, which we were aware of, but when our fan broke, we were told there were no replacements. Only after pressing did they find one, which was barely functional. The following day we requested a proper replacement and were told it would be handled—no one followed up. Luckily, we had a cousin nearby who lent us a working fan. Service overall was disappointing. The bedside lamps were faulty and required fiddling to work. Staff seemed indifferent and not particularly warm or helpful. The only real moment of good service was from a lovely lady who offered our dog a bowl of water as we passed through the grounds—sadly, that was the best hospitality we received all weekend. Wouldn’t recommend staying here in the summer unless you want to sizzle through the night. It’s a shame, as the setting is gorgeous but the service and comfort levels just didn’t live up to expectations.
Rosa, 2-night trip

Service ok. Coffee expensive and not of quality.
Davide, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with friends in an adjacent chalet. Unfortunately we were denied use of the swimming pool because we had not booked spa treatments and the dinner while very nice was vastly overpriced for the fare received

Lovely Oasis to Recharge

What an amazing stay at the Minster Mill! The grounds are lovely, the staff are very helpful and the entire environment and atmosphere is just relaxing. We took local walks to the ruins, played tennis & croquet, and enjkyed a lovely meal at the Old Swan.
Laura, 2-night trip

The hotel was lovely although the bed was broken although we did stay in the room one night before being moved to a better room the next day. The staff were very helpful in resolving the issue.
Paul, 2-night trip

Ok, but nothing special

I appreciate that any hotel stay at Xmas bears an uplift in room rate and we were staying up attend a Xmas function, but I do not feel the room met our expectations for the cost.

Beautiful island in the middle of the Cotswolds. Two restaurants available, parking included on site and an amazing location at a river. Cute walks through the countryside. Old mill beautifully remodelled.
