A great place to stay

A fantastic place to stay in the countryside. Beer was very nice, food was great and the staff couldn't be more accommodating. Very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. A perfect base for walking and travelling the countryside

We stopped here as it is very convenient to the M40. We loved the charm of the building and the decor of the room we had was tasteful and beautiful ( Stag). Our ground floor room had a lovely open outlook over fields. Large bathroom. We had dinner in the restaurant which we really enjoyed although the hotel was very quiet. The owner could not have been more attentive. Lovely stay and good value for money.

Beautiful little stay, lovely staff

Absolutely lovely stay at the chiltern fox! Our babysitter cancelled on us last minute and we had a night away for our anniversary with wine tasting so had to cancel the wine tasting and added our 4 month old to our stay at the chiltern fox and they were so accommodating to us for our little boy! they upgraded our room for us as we informed them our situation which was so kind! the room was beautiful and the service and food was fantastic, we felt really looked after! It’s a beautiful little stay, out of the way which is nice. We’re looking forward to rebooking again when we redo our wine tasting!

Tired room and guests.

Nice pub with friendly service. Room 8 is very tired looking and much too hot for comfort or sleep. Insecure ground floor window so unable to leave open overnight. Loose toilet seat and low-power shower. Requirement to provide breakfast choices and time the evening before seems unduly inflexible.

Disappointed

The double socket on the wall wasn’t fitted properly. Plus there is a 12.5% service charge when you order your food, I personally don’t agree with a service charge. The price you see is the price you should pay, plus didn’t get the view I was supposed to get. All in all I was very disappointed with this place.

One to avoid

Said they hadn’t received the notification of my booking so had to prove it with the confirmation email. A really unfriendly welcome. Having been emailed after I had booked to say to bring my own wine to the restaurant (they had no alcohol licence), they then tried to make me pay it and denied that I had been told there was no alcohol being served so I had to show him the email the hotel had sent to make myself believed, point out the large sign by the bar that said to BYO and the fact that the waitress had provided glasses. Made to feel like I was a liar and an inconvenience (even though I was the only one there!). A really uncomfortable experience. However the room itself was lovely, the food on the one occasion I ate there was great and with a little light, heating, atmosphere and music, it could have been lovely so maybe my experience was down to one individual. Had they behaved differently this could have been a very positive review.

BE WARNED: DO NOT STAY HERE

I had an extremely disappointing and unsafe experience at The Chilterns Fox. With no dinner available at the hotel, I went out to eat elsewhere, only to return and find all the doors locked, the lights off, and no staff present. There was no contact number provided, leaving me stranded and unsure of what to do. I even had to call the police for advice. Desperate for help, I approached a neighbor, who informed me this has been a recurring issue for weeks. Guests have been locked out with no way to re-enter. The lack of customer service and basic safety measures is shocking. As a young woman traveling alone, I felt especially vulnerable. When I finally managed to speak to the owner, their response was dismissive and uncaring. It was simply too scary to stay another night, so I left the next day and booked into an alternative hotel for the rest of the week. This hotel offers no dinner, no bar, no breakfast, and absolutely no sense of security. I cannot recommend it to anyone.

Our stay at the Cherry Tree was a comfortable stay for a business trip. The checking in system was efficient and the notifications from the owners were received in a timely manner and were very helpful and friendly in manner. We will definitely consider staying again on future business trips.

Shut do not book

It was completely shut when we arrived and had to find somewhere else to stay that evening, very inconvenient, if your not open then remove your hotel from this site. Phone number cuts off after one ring.

No wifi, TV, breakfast or reception.

Beware - there is no wifi! This is not obvious in the advertising. No TV channels - the smart TV needed wifi. There is no reception so arrivals and departures are haphazard. No breakfast available (by 0800 when I left). I was locked out of the main building in the morning so had to leave my key in the room and go without 'checking out'. Before arrival, I received a message to say there is no alcohol licence. The owner denied this and stated that this was not instigated by him and that alcohol was indeed available. Dinner was in an empty, dining room. The menu and service didn't inspire confidence so I ended up eating elsewhere. Renovations are ongoing. Paper on the floor in the bar etc. It is a shame as the room was nicely presented and the bed was comfortable. Too many problems to call it a 'hotel' I would use again or recommend to others.

Need to improve fast

Recently changed hands and the new owners are not up and running fully yet. Room is nice but the bar was closed as no licence yet and no one around in the morning to sort breakfast that I was told was 8.30. The place had all the lights out and was deserted and clearly not going to be doing my breakfast. I left hungry.

On arrival it was a poor check in experience a table in the bar that can’t sell alcohol as it has no licence. No information as to breakfast times etc. So didn’t have it. Room was very nice but cold had to ask for heating to be put on in hotel. Went out for a meal got back at 830 from door locked. Had to bang on window to get attention. Staff have no clue how to do service. I also kept getting messages saying my room had been cancelled which it hadn’t.
