The Queens Head - A 3-star inn with a wood-fired pizza restaurant and proximity to Oxford

The Queens Head features a restaurant serving freshly made artisan pizzas cooked in a wood-fired oven at 290°, alongside seriously tasty beers, including new brews from Brewpoint. Guests can choose from shared starters, pizza mains, and classic traditional puds, with weekday lunch deals offering a 9" pizza and soft drink for £5. The inn provides double, twin, triple, and quadruple rooms, each equipped with tea and coffee makers, private bathrooms with showers, and TVs. Leisure activities include darts, squash, and mini-golf, while nearby attractions like Wheatley Birds of Prey Centre (2 km) and Shotover Country Park (3 km) offer outdoor options. The Queens Head is 10 km from the University of Oxford and 70 km from London Heathrow.

Pros

The wood-fired oven prepares pizzas with freshly made dough and signature tomato base.

Proximity to multiple nature reserves and parks, including Spindleberry Nature Park (3 km).

Weekday lunch specials provide affordable dining options.

Cons

No on-site spa or swimming facilities.

Limited public transport options for reaching nearby attractions.

“This village pub provides basic, clean rooms and an excellent Thai restaurant. Ideal for those seeking a hiking or cycling break near Waterperry Gardens, it's also conveniently located for Oxford. The friendly staff and unexpected breakfast basket add a welcoming touch.”
