The staff were lovely, Linzi and her daughter looked after us so well. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. The new restaurant is excellent, serving Tapa’s dishes. The hotel was dog friendly and they offered dog beds, and bowls. The location of the property is central to Burford.

The hotel doesn’t have parking although we found on road parking easily enough very close by. The restaurant menu would benefit from an English description of what the tapas dishes were but they staff were very helpful explaining it all to us.

The decor was beautiful. The room was comfortable (aircon would be preferred but appreciate the age of the building). The staff were really lovely and friendly. Food and drink fantastic. Will definitely come again.

With there being no mini fridge in the rooms, the pantry is a nice idea but maybe some robes in the rooms would be a good idea so you can go to the pantry in the morning without having to get fully dressed. We just wanted a coffee and to watch the tv in bed but was super early so felt a bit of a shame to have to get fully dressed to walk down the corridor for some milk. Also the lady that checked us in said her computer wasn’t working so took our card details. Wrote them down and said she would keep them confidential. When she took us upstairs to our room she then left the pad with our card detailed written on, out on the bar for anyone to see. Innocent mistake but just an FYI for future bookings.

Our experience at the Highway Inn was exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the warm and welcoming atmosphere made us feel right at home. Linzi, the manager of the venue, was an absolute pleasure—so kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. Unfortunately, my wife fell ill after a visit to the nearby wildlife park, but the staff went above and beyond to take care of us. They brought food up to our room and checked in regularly to make sure we were okay. Their kindness and thoughtfulness made a real difference during a tough moment. The entire place has such a friendly vibe—everyone smiles, and there’s a real sense of warmth throughout the hotel. To top it all off, the breakfast was outstanding! We can’t recommend the Highway Inn highly enough. We’ll definitely be back!

Food isn’t served at the hotel on Mondays and Tuesdays, which is a shame—especially since the breakfast was so delicious! It would have been great to enjoy more of their meals during our stay.

Perfect location, on the Main Street. Room decor is beautiful, rooms are clean and well looked after. No drink making facilities in rooms but help yourself pantry more than made up for it- excellent choice of tea and coffee, fresh milk, oat milk, stocked fridge of san pellegrino and home made brownies which were unbelievably good! Dinner at the hotel restaurant was very good also. Check out time was 11am which was great. Hotel is beautiful, would highly recommend.

A little loud at night until around midnight but think that was due to a group of guests staying on that occasion.

Elegant and attention to detail decoration. Substantial breakfast from a great selection. Best poached eggs & sausages I've had in a while. Locally sourced food, nice touch. Gorgeous bedroom called Girl Classy cosy & comfy. Nice smelling toiletries to use in a fabulous shower. Refreshment stand well stocked with great tea pigs & coffee pods. Top ups available in a guests pantry. Lovely touch. Checked in and looked after by great staff. Engaging and helpful. The atmosphere throughout our stay was positive. Staff sounded happy in their job and made time to talk with us.

Bar area had nowhere to have a quiet drink. It was a little overwhelming when full. The courtyard area, I'm sure, helps secure a more intermate drinking opportunity. The staff were great and helpful in allowing us to use the restaurant for a quiet chat.

From arrival the staff could not have been more friendly and helpful.We were upgraded to a superior room, which was a great size and very warm and comfortable, with wonderful decor and dressing. We were celebrating a special occasion and were very generously given a drink at the bar prior to having a really tasty meal in the hotel Tapas restaurant. Breakfast the following morning lived up to expectations an the free tea/coffee pantry and brownies were a very enjoyable surprise. I would definitely recommend.

We were lucky and patience/perseverance meant we were able to park our car outside the hotel, however parking is severely limited in Burford in general, so don't expect to park near to hotel, at least immediately.

We’ve stayed here previously before it got renovated and always loved it, but since the renovation it’s even more impressive. It’s turned into a beautiful boutique hotel and we couldn’t have felt more welcome. We were pleasantly surprised to see we’d been upgraded and loved our room (Joy) so much we decided to add another night! The breakfast was delicious and cooked to order (lots of options to choose from), and the little pantry to help yourself to coffee, tea and freshly baked treats was a lovely touch. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the bathroom/shower was so nice. We slept like logs in the big comfy bed. The hotel is right in the middle of Burford where all the action is, but you genuinely cannot hear any noise in the room from the street. We had the best stay to celebrate our anniversary and cannot wait to go again!

We loved everything, no negatives to report! This is more of a ‘nice to have’ - an extra light would be handy in the room as it’s quite dark, like a dimmable table or floor lamp, and maybe a few extra hangers or hooks but honestly we had a fantastic stay at The Highway.

Loved everything about this property, location was superb. The rooms are excellent, cosy and comfortable. Staff are really nice. We ate at the Bull for our stay and the food was delicious. Only one downside and no fault to the hotel was trying to find parking. I know people have complained about not having kettles in their room to make tea/coffee but they have a pantry with literally everything provided even had freshly baked treats for you take. People just love to complain about the smallest of things. I would 100% recommend this place if you are staying in Burford.

Nothing at all

The hotel is very well positioned and finished to a high standard. The staff are excellent and the breakfast is superb.

The lighting in our room (Joy) was subdued to say the least. It was hard to get ready as there is insufficient light over the main mirror. The rooms are very stylish and I can see why the lighting is as it is but it’s not terribly practical! There could also be more storage space. There was room in the room for a chest of drawers which would have been useful.

Lovely hotel in great location. The room was clean and comfortable and everything you needed was there. Massive shout out to Lyndsey at breatfast this morning a credit to the hotel she was very accomadating and made us feel welcome and well looked after a great member of staff that is good at her job keep up the good work !! Please visit the Lamb pub when you visit lovely old traditional pub with log and coal fires.

We was under the impression that full english breakfast was included in the £130.00 price but found out at breakfast that this was extra so an extra £22.00 brought the total stay to £150.00 expensive we found for one night out of season we travel alot and pay around £110-£120 full english breakfast included. Our fault we should of checked we learnt the expensive way.
