Formerly the home of the Brakspear brewery until 2002, now a stunning hotel. Many original features to celebrate the history still remain today in this hotel with 43 bedrooms.
On a sunny day, the courtyard is the perfect place for a glass of Pimms or cold beer. The large dining room is very accommodating and there's plenty to choose from on the French-influenced menu. Non-residents are always welcome.
It's a popular place for weddings too as there's a selection of private rooms in this listed and historic building.
Brakspear originally began brewing in Witney, north Oxfordshire, before relocating to Henley, the river proving a useful transport link for ingredients and as a way to transport the beer once brewed.
Today Brakspear's brewery has returned to Witney at the Wychwood Brewery however the pubs still remain and the Brakspear Ale Trail is world-famous.
