‘upon the motor bus route, two miles from Northleach, upon the way to Burford. This ancient inn is able to supply the wants of all visitors. Terms quoted reasonable and inclusive. The air at the elevation upon which the house stands has always been noted for its health giving properties. Good accommodation for hunting gentlemen. Mrs Eva., proprietress.’
The property is now a private residence and is still in an isolated position.
