Great night stay

This was centrally located , with a market across the street . Making it perfdctvto grab whatever your needs for the night or the morning on the go. They offer free coffee , in the room , as well as by the main office The inn has impecable outdoors, and the room was amazing. The staff was beyond extra nice - we sat outside and enjoyed a coffee by the river - others were doing the same Highly recommended… and you can walk the town without a problem- get BBC a cremee down the street

A beautiful location and welcoming Inn

We had a lovely visit at the Shire Woodstock. The room was lovely, comfortable, and in a great location! We enjoyed breakfast at Oakes and Evelyn the restaurant at their sister Inn, The Jackson. It was amazing. We can't wait to return to the Shire and to Woodstock

OK appreciated the riverside room to stay away from road noise. Cleanliness just average. As a single traveler I did not like the flimsy door locks.

Smelly room. Inside room, wall heating is broken. Staff is very nice to bring extra portable heater. TV remote control was not working at beginning and staff worked a while to make it finally working. Missing tissue box and only a almost gone toilet paper left and not new roll in the room. Thanks hid we only stay one night at the place. Would not recommend for other guests.
