Fantastic stay! Highly recommend.
We had an amazing two night stay here! We had a Boujee room with a bath at the end of the bed, a wet room and a courtyard terrace. Exceptional value. From the second we ‘checked in’ on the bus reception everyone was fun, friendly and so relaxed. We were walked to our room where all services and amenities were explained on the way and it made the arrival so exciting. The room itself was really fun and funky and really helps you relax just being yourself (there’s not much room for privacy from your partner!) we found it a great way to just find the joy in all the quirks. (A bath tub which fills from the ceiling is definitely a quirk!) The gardens were beautiful with just the right level of music. Drinks were lovely and whilst we didn’t eat here, the food smelled amazing! Throughout the whole stay every staff member we passed made pleasantries and made you feel welcome any time day or night. With a BP/M&S next door (though you really don’t here any noise), a £20 uber to Oxford and a 25 minute drive to Bicester Village, literally everything about this unique hotel was great from style and service to location. Expectations absolutely exceeded. We will most definitely be back! Thank you Crazy Bear team!

Lovely meal but dissapointing stay
As our 1st wedding anniversary treat we decided to stay at the crazy bear, stadhampton and I am unfortunately writing this review now.
On arrival we found reception in a vintage red bus and we were met by the very friendly and helpful reception staff. The querkiness was apparent through the bar, restaurant and garden areas which all had a very relaxed and holiday vibe.
We chose a boujee room to stay in at a cost of £450 per night and from looking at the website we were expecting extravagance and fine details.
On following the receptionist 2 mins up the nearby single lane road, past a few residential properties, we walked down a gravel drive and Into an un-assuming house.
Within the house we were shown our room which in first glance looked like the photos although a little dated , but was notably very dark with the blinds being down and the black and purple velour decor.
We only stopped in the room for a few minutes as we wanted to visit the bar and garden and prepare for our dinner reservation.
The bar and gardens are very nice with a relaxing and chilled vibe, and was a perfect place to unwind after a near 2hr drive to get there.
We ate our meal in the garden dining area next to the pond and the service and food was excellent.
We decided to return to our room to watch the England match and have a nice bath, and this is where our stay began to get dissapointing.
On attempting to run the bath, the main feature to the room with it being at the end of the bed, it became apparent we could not get any cold water. We called room service at which it was now 930 at night, to which they promptly attended.
The young lady fiddled with the bath and promptly pulled the temperature control off the bath... this would be why we could not change the temperature.
She kindly stated she will get more help but with it now being quite late we opted for a shower Instead as we just wanted to enjoy our anniversary evening together. We did make it clear how dissapointed we were and that it had ruined our evening of which she apologised.
On using the shower it was found to be full of limescale with the jets shooting off in all directions... again dissapointing and absolutely soaked the floor.
The bathroom did not have a door, of which you could see it used to, which again made going toilet etc not as private as we both liked.
This now got us looking for more issues of which we unfortunately found....
- The TV remote was missing its back.
- No mini bar or fridge
- No tea bags or hot chocolate only coffee pods.
- No bottled water, just 2 cans and 2 glasses.
- Dried lipstick stain on bedding
- Poo stain on towel
- Water stain on ceiling where tap pours into bath
- No lighting by mirror to do make up so wife took mirror outside.
- Pillows and bedding smelled of old cigarette smoke
- chipped bath and looking dated and old.
- Cleaner cupboard outside our door of which they started at 8am banging the doors and waking us up.
The manager did come to our door at 10pm whilst we were relaxing, with a bottle of champagne, of which we sent him away as we just wanted to chill and saw as an insult.
We did not receive anything for our anniversary of which they were aware of, and would of expected a nice dessert gesture or similar.
For this price we were extremely dissapointed and feel we would of had a better experience at a much cheaper location or got the 5 star treatment this price range should offer, elsewhere.
The finer details are lacking and the room was run down, broken and we feel not given any TLC for a few years.
Highly recommend the food and bar but if you stay please lower your expectations or look elsewhere for much better value.

Fantastic Hotel Crazy Bear
The Crazy Bear what a fantastic place.
It’s true that it is quirky but real fun rooms are luxurious and comfortable. The grounds are super loads of comfortable places to relax on a sunny day.
Restaurant serves top quality English and Thai food and lovely Breakfast. The staff all go the extra mile special thanks to Tanya who was really special.
I would recommend this fabulous hotel to anyone I am on my last night tonight and just going for a nice pint of Hawkestone lager in the bar.
Before our meal had Thai food first 2 nights going for English tonight.can’t wait to book in again will come back in winter and also visit the other Crazy Bear .

The venue is superb overall. One thing I found was there was no buffet continental breakfast, you had to sit and ask for corn flakes and a cup of tea which took ages to arrive.
There was never any staff around so I ask the guy watering the plants who as it turned out also was doing breakfast and wasn't that happy.
Maybe under staffed.
