Then why not come back and sample another of our inns to see in the New Year?
Raise a glass to 2013 and then stay the night in the comfort of Old English Inns.
Enjoy a well-deserved break this Christmas or New Year and let us spoil you for a few days, while you relax with friends old and new.
Thank you for making The Doghouse your choice, situated in Abingdon, Oxfordshire and is just south of Oxford.
It is our aim to make your stay a comfortable one and we would like you to treat the Dog House as a home away from home.
It is not often that people ask to be in the Dog House, but many of our guests do just that regularly! We aim to offer you a combination of quality and friendly service from the Dog House team.
Relax in our large garden and enjoy the peace and quiet of the restful surroundings and the beauty of the countryside whether you're our guest for a brief visit or for a longer stay.
The name of the hotel has rather an unusual origin. In days gone by, wealthy farming gentry sent their offspring to be educated in Oxford and would arrive there complete with their horses and hunting dogs. The Colleges allowed their students to stable horses but not the dogs! Alas, with nowhere else to house the animals, the proprietor of the local inn offered an invaluable 'dog sitting' service and the venue became known as the Dog House. In recent times, it has still been requested that we provide a dog sitting service!
These days we have 20 comfortable en suite bedrooms including 2 feature rooms. The rooms are appointed with colour TV, tea and coffee making facilities, iron and ironing boards. If there is anything we can do to make your stay more pleasant, please ask any one of the Dog House team.
Our conference and dining areas can be adapted to meet the needs for private functions and weddings.
