Only 20 mins out of Oxford, this is a great stop-over in the countryside, and a welcome relief to the interminable, dreary business hotels. Yes, it is a bit rustic, but it is a farmhouse B&B. There was a lot that I liked - the friendliness, spacious rooms, a kitchenette, a comfy bed ... and a great setting. Good stuff!... More

We came here for a Valentine's getaway. Ally and Doug were extremely friendly from the moment I first picked up the phone to enquire. We ate in the restaurant upon arrival, and had a wonderful meal, followed by a drink and a natter in the bar where we meet the farm cats and dogs. I was impressed that Ally asked... More

I was traveling home from London last week in the treacherous weather and soon came to conclusion that the rain and wind was in for the night and it would be better to check in somewhere for the night and continue in the morning. My wife found this place online and it was in my price range (and it was... More

We booked this place for a little break, on arrival the lady of the house was not at all welcoming. the accommodation was old fashioned, and dated. the cleaning left a lot to be desired, the windows filthy, the fridge smell with spills. the price was 230 pounds for 3 nights. We cancelled. to be fair the lady had no... More

We had breakfast at Common Leys Farm this morning, on the recommendation of one of our kids. It is only a few miles from where we live and I'm amazed we hadn't heard of it until very recently. It is a working farm that oozes charm, home comforts and happy animals. We ate in the restaurant - full English breakfast... More

My brother and I booked here to take our mum for a treat. We stayed in the self-catering cottages as she has Parkinsons and this suited us down to the ground. Ali and Doug were very welcoming and could not do enough to make our stay enjoyable. We ate in the restaurant 2 out of 3 nights and the food... More

This is our third visit now and the place goes from strength to strength. The surroundings are beautiful. We stayed in the main house bed and breakfast. The room was very spacious and well presented. The staff are very friendly and can't do enough for you. Good choice of food if you'd like to eat in the evening. Everything is... More

Communication is poor, the service is appalling and the rooms are well below standard. We booked our rooms nearly a year ago only to be told two weeks before we arrived that we had been double booked and we could no longer stay. This issue was resolved but no effort was made to apologise or compensate us in any way.

We are very passionate about Common Leys Farm and we are sorry about how you feel now, however when mistakes do happen the majority of visitors are able to put the matter into context and recognize the good will and commitment to our customers that drives everything we do here. You say communication was poor, even though we contacted you... More
