The Pear Tree Inn - Cherwell

Lock-in kept us awake until 2am despite 4 visits to the bar to ask them to end their evening. Mice in 2 of the bedrooms. One large towel for 2 people. Only one mug for 2 people. Expensive, no breakfast. The only good thing was clean sheets. No one around in the morning to complain to. It’s badly run and a dump.

Arrived early and checked in asked about food told no kitchen being refurbished, and I presume the lady who then spoke to me said the sun inn up the road will do food ,then at 8pm we have a singer here playing a game of aunt Sally in the garden ,so we had lunch at the brewery very nice ,had a rest in our room then walked up to the sun Inn for a meal ,we returned to the pear tree ,could not even get in the door for a drink placd was packed went to the garden Singer was not the best ,interesting game was aunt Sally eventually got a drink ,but was a short measure might just of asked for lemonade , came up to the room for what i was expecting to be a relaxing night after Singer finished but no time now as I am writing this 1am on Friday 8th July 2023 ,when checking in we should have been told there was a party going on and noise till early Friday morning I am absolutely fuming and would definitely not recommend staying here to anyone on a Thursday night Friday morning needless to say I will takecthis further

I first stayed at The Pear Tree in August 2006 and it was superb. Roll forward to my second stay in December 2022 and you have to wonder what on earth has happened. Our rooms were excellent, I have no complaints whatsover about them and would stay there again. But, the pub iitself has become tired and tatty, it was a real shock when I walked through the door this time. We were told by somebody in the village that it was in limbo between tennants but imho the Hook Norton Brewery really should step in here and sort it ASAP, after all it is pretty much the Brewery Tap! It just needs decorating (not modernising) but returned to its former glory with pictures on the wall, horse brasses etc the sort of thing you expect to see in an old country pub.

Great friendly,traditional village pub doing great deals on take away pizza and a massive garden area. Also does accommodation .

Lovely little pub, very popular with locals and visitors alike. Good beer and an excellent pizza. Such good value for this level of quality.
