The Double Red Duke - Hotel in Oxfordshire
Bourton Road
Clanfield, Bampton, OX18 2RB, Oxfordshire
England,
Regno Unito
This was probably always a hostelry of some sort: the big building sits on the road in the heart of the sleepy village, close to Bampton of Downton Abbey fame. Food is a big priority and chef, Henrick Ritzen, cooks on an open fire in the centre of the dining room - a performance art. English lamb, beef, pork, oysters and hand cut chips - the menu is seasonal and local, four pumps grace the bar: all local including Abingdon Bridge and Allsops.
You breakfast on a superb Full English, crushed avocado with poached eggs or breakfast muffin with Ogleshield cheese, bacon, egg and sausage. Spill out into the garden on warm days, retire to bedrooms with gorgeous fabrics, soft feather and down, homemade biscuits and bathrooms with 100 Acres soaps and lotions. All well away from the bar area.
Walk onto the Thames Path from the village, hire bikes locally or book a massage in the Shepherd's Hut treatment room.
