A seventeenth-century pub at the heart of Charlbury, a bustling market town alive with community, connection and conviviality.

The dining room offers a British menu rooted in seasonal produce grown on Daylesford’s farm, while the bar serves craft beers, local ales and a carefully curated wine list.

In the colder months, crackling log fires create a welcoming refuge; in summer, the expansive orchard garden becomes a natural gathering place for families and friends – the perfect setting for long lunches, shared plates and unhurried afternoons in the sun.

FOOD

A seasonal menu celebrating local growers and producers

The menu combines a selection of hearty pub classics with ingredient-led dishes that celebrate the flavours of seasonal produce. Ingredients come from local suppliers and growers as well as from our sister farm at Daylesford Organic.

DRINK

Modern craft beers from independent British breweries alongside traditional cask ales

We serve familiar artisan beer, draught cider and hand-picked wine from independent vineyards. Large inglenook fires provide a welcoming place for families to play board games and dogs to curl beside, whilst our Snug is a quiet corner tucked away behind the bar.

Stay

Pub Rooms

Each of our twelve pub rooms are different, drawing inspiration from the neighbouring ancient woodland. The interiors preserve the heritage of the pub, blending seamlessly with all the modern comforts one would expect from the exceptional standards of a Daylesford Stays property.
