THE SWAN INN
SWINBROOK
​ NEAR BURFORD, OXON, OX18 4DY 
www.theswanswinbrook.co.uk


​Situated just 2 miles from Burford you will find the beautifully charming village of Swinbrook which is home to one of the most delightfully located pubs in the Cotswolds - The Swan Inn. Brimming with history, the pub is hugely popular with locals and tourists alike.

The Inn is owned by the late Dowager Duchess of Devonshire’s estate Chatworth, the last of Mitford sisters whose pictures don the wall above the fireplace in the restaurant which serves a high-quality seasonal menu and is a former Good Pub Guide Oxfordshire County Dining Pub of the Year. As much goes into sourcing the ingredients as it does creating the dishes which people travel far and wide to come and experience.

A regular in The Good Beer Guide, you will find an array local ales and larger from Hook Norton Brewery and the Cotswold Brewing Company in the flagstone floored bar which allows well behaved dogs which is perfect as Swinbrook is a wonderful village to enjoy a walk​​ before or after your meal or drink.​

​​​​If that's not enough for you then it is a stunning place to stay too boasting eleven delightful rooms - six in their converted Cotswold stone stable barn and five more in the incredibly located Riverside Cottage which, as the name suggests, lies on the banks of the River Windrush opposite the pub.

​The Swan just oozes quality and is a great place to enjoy a meal, drink or base yourself to explore the Cotswolds and if you are a Downton Abbey fan, it was also the set-location for Lady Sybil’s elopement with the family chauffeur, Branson, one of the key and most controversial story-lines of the Second Season.

​The Swan Inn at Swinbrook has it all. Great food, delightful rooms and a stunning location to match
