    Nothing really.

    Close to Milton business park so easy to get to my company meeting. Food and beer was great.

    I marked it a 9 rather than a 10 because the hot water in the bathroom of room 5 was too hot - I’ve subsequently realised that it scalded my hand

    The size and quality of the room and the cleanliness. Also I used the pub for a business dinner in the evening and the food was excellent.

    The pub for drinks and food in the evening was excellent, great quality and top-drawer service. I was aware of the arrangements for breakfast and I thought it worked very well with plenty of options and generous ervings.

    Just one tiny Even Better If.... It would be good if the bathroom had hooks or a rail to hang towels on, but otherwise faultless!

    The rooms were spotless and seemed to have been recently renovated - the decor had a light, fresh feeling. The staff were very friendly and explained how everything worked, even though the pub itself was going to be closed that evening. The location was very quiet (even more so as the pub was closed!) We liked the arrangements for the continental breakfast, too; the room had a mini fridge with everything you could need for breakfast including fresh milk (not UHT!) This meant that we could have breakfast in the room as and when we wanted to. The Nespresso machine was a lovely extra touch too. Perfect!

    Nothing not to like, one consequence of the beer festival was the usual excellent menu was curtailed to cope with the greater numbers and higher turnover of space needed

    We do like this place, well situated just off ring road, an appealing village nearly swallowed up by a retail park. Traditional pub with excellent ale and continental style breakfast to eat when you want. This time,totally unplanned, we found a beer festival on too with a live band. In fact we so enjoy this place that we detour to stop here as this year was not really on our route

    We liked everything about the Plum Pudding

    The Plum Pudding is a lovely pub in a quiet location with easy access into Abingdon and Oxford by the local bus. Our room was comfortable, cosy and had everything you needed for your stay. The food in the bar was delicious, the staff were very attentive and polite. Would highly recommend. Parking wasn’t an issue we left our car there all weekend and used the bus.

    Overnight stay while visiting family in rural setting.

    We had a key to get in via a side door if we returned after the pub had closed. We were told the lock "is a bit fiddly". We DID return after the pub had closed and it took several minutes of fiddling to open the door. During this time I called the phone number on the booking confirmation which went unanswered. We did mange to open the door after some more fiddling but it's not ideal. I would strongly recommend that if guests think they will be returning to the property late, that they give the side door lock a trial run beforehand.

    An unusual mix of old and new. Superb shower. Spacious room with all of the usual facilities. Comfortable bed. Rural village location. Quiet - once the pub closed. Good pub food. Large range of beers.
