Guesthouse Easington Guest House (Banbury, United Kingdom)

With very few exceptions, guests are bowled over by the food at the restaurant. Breakfast is described as being true to the English tradition, and other meals as a successful modern take on classic country fare.

There seems to be a contrast of opinions. Guests who stayed in renovated rooms have nothing but praise for the décor and atmosphere, while those in the older rooms describe them as “a bit tired”. Renovations were still ongoing in November 2015, and it's unclear whether all rooms have been renovated. It is best to check directly with the hotel.

Guests mention that, despite being on the edge of town, it's an easy walk into the centre from the hotel - convenient for those who need to do a bit of shopping, or who would like to try a different restaurant.

Unfortunately Easington House in right on a busy road, which tends to detract from the lovely building and gardens. Guests also mention that the noise from passing cars is noticeable at night, and also that actually accessing the property is tricky because of the busy road.

It seems the rooms at Easington House do vary quite a bit in size - perhaps as a result of its age. While some guests are surprised by the large size of their rooms, a significant minority complain that their room was just too small, and that it made moving around quite awkward.

A couple of guests mention that the floorboards on the first floor hallway creak as you move over them. This wasn't terribly loud, but did nonetheless disturb them a little.
