Superb service and attention to detail, from Giancarlo who greeted my wife and I , allowed us to check in early, through to the bar staff and restaurant team. Food great, could not have wished for better.

The staff were excellent: very friendly, responsive and efficient. The location was perfect with lovely local walks and there were excellent food choices available and different places to sit to eat. The room was big and had lots of character. Unfortunately room 7 was very hot in the warm weather which made it very difficult to sleep. The bathroom was tired, with some very poor workmanship around the bath and shower. These were the only negatives of an otherwise excellent stay!

This place was beautiful! I loved every minute of our stay and the history of the hotel is fascinating.

Very comfortable room and very helpful and courteous staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay.

A great place to take a break along the way, enjoy the restaurant and its great staff, and really close to the city of Oxford.

A lovely location and beautiful looking building. Rooms are in keeping with the building and clean, tea, coffee etc all lovely, nice towels & bedding - the room itself just needed a bit of tlc - radiator not working (portable heater provided instead) shower extremely hard to regulate temperature and not able to single handedly hold the head and shower, bed support broken on one side.. Service was fantastic however and restaurant lovely and we all did get a good sleep.

Comfortable and relaxing although can be a bit noisy in the late evening with pub clientele chatting on the outside deck which is situated just below the rooms. Dog charge of £15 per night.

I thoroughly enjoyed my three-night stay at The Bear and would highly recommend. The room was comfortable and perfectly appointed. The adjacent pub was convenient for meals, and everything was delicious. Ronan and every other staff member I came into contact with was top notch. If you are looking for a quiet and peaceful place to stay outside the hustle of Oxford, do not hesitate to stay at The Bear. I will definitely stay here again.

Lovely Hotel. Room was spotless and very comfortable. Evening meal was delicious, especially the Parsnip soup it was the best I've ever tasted. Staff were lovely & welcoming. Look forward to staying again.

Stayed in one of the four outside bedroom, whilst okay, the bathroom needs an overhaul. Bedroom was comfortable albeit cobwebs on the lights above the bed.

What a lovely find in proximity to our Oxford holiday! Cumnor is conveniently quiet to the hustle and bustle of Oxford. The room was spacious and welcoming, hotel staff were excellent, and meals there were quite satisfying!

The whole experience was awesome. Clean throughout, the most friendly staff, gorgeous food and excellent drinks menu. Pub/restaurant is very comfortable and tastefully decorated. Dog friendly. Beautiful surroundings in a quiet little village. Easy access to main tourist hotspots. Definitely planning a second visit for next year.
