Falkland Arms

Falkland Arms Review

It's worth detouring a bit for this supremely appealing pub on the village green at Great Tew, about 8 mi northwest of Woodstock. The bar stocks impressive malt whiskies, and mugs and jugs hang from the beams. The small restaurant chalks up a traditional but creative menu, which includes such items as roast pork with apples and melted Cheddar cheese, and slow-cooked lamb shank. If you can't bear to leave, a spiral stone staircase leads to five guest rooms.
