Great place to stay
Very friendly greeting and although we were early allowed us to check in. Great to have on site parking. Quality and choice of breakfast was very good and amazing home made marmalade and jams. Marked down for eco because we hung up the towels but they were changed anyway. Nice to have bottles of filtered water in room

We really enjoyed our stay here, our room was clean, spacious, and comfortable and you can’t beat the location and its proximity to Blenheim Palace. We were also easily able to take the bus to Oxford for a half day using the bus stop right out front. We also enjoyed having a tasty hot breakfast every morning included with our stay. I would definitely stay here again!

Blenheim palace trip
We chose the Marlborough Arms in Woodstock for its proximity to the palace. It’s a lovely old building with lots of ups and downs between floors. The room was clean and tidy, the staff very friendly and the breakfast sets you up for the day. Perfect stay and we really enjoyed ourselves

Be wary of what rooms you get.
Extremely disappointing after see the pics and booking a comfort room, if you book state you don’t want ‘The Studio’ small extension out back in the car park, tiny shower en suite and extremely uncomfortable sitting on toilet due to cramped conditions and a handle sticking out, awful really disappointing

This was a very nice place to stay and we would go back and highly recommend Marlborough Arms to those traveling. It was within an easy walk to Blenheim Palace, lovely town, cute bookstore and good choices of restaurants! The B and B was quaint, historic, well preserved with lovely sitting areas including outdoors. Great breakfast buffet and made to order hot breakfast! If you haven't yet had a traditional English breakfast let this be your first, delicious.

Loved Woodstock. Excellent small Town to stay and very near to Blenheim Palace. B & B was good overall. Great breakfast. Room could have been a little more plush - more basic than I thought it would be. Same with bathroom and it felt cold in the bathroom. But overall enjoyed our stay
