At the heart of pretty Cotswold village Milton-under-Wychwood lies The Hare, its stone façade belying its stylish, contemporary interior. Beamed ceilings and exposed stone walls allude to its past, while the marble topped bar and splashes of colour – deep orange curtains, olive green corner seating – bring it forward to the 21st century. An eclectic mix of paintings, gold-framed mirrors and a pair of taxidermied hares are fun, quirky touches. Cosy up by the log burner and sip a pint of Hooky ale while you peruse menus chalked up on blackboards; head chef Matt serves up cracking modern food, with fresh fish the star of the show. Try griddled sardines on sourdough with wild garlic butter, sea bass in a white wine and tomato cream, then espresso crème brûlée and vanilla sugared doughnuts. With stacks of experience between them, you’re in safe hands with landlords Rachel and Sue.

  • Daylesford is a short hop away. Spend a joyous hour or two in organic heaven in the beautiful farm shop, café or mini spa.
  • Just 4 miles away is the charming village of Burford with chocolate-box cottages, beautiful boutiques, delis, tea rooms, pubs and Burford Garden Centre - the Harrods of the Cotswolds!!
  • Soho Farmhouse - the rural outpost of the private members' club - recently opened and attracting the A list in search of bucolic bliss.
  • The Hare is slap bang in the middle of foodie heaven! Within 5 miles we have The Wild Rabbit, The Chequers at Churchill and The Kingham Plough - eat your way around The Cotswolds.
  • Blenheim Palace is a fabulous place to visit - what about a morning at Blenheim, lunch at The Hare and then moving on to gorgeous Stow on the Wold for a night in one of the many boutique hotels?
  • The London train stops at Shipton under Wychwood, our neighbouring village.

Guest feedback
"The food is excellent. One can eat a variety of fresh fish delivered daily from Cornwall. The starters are a decent size, and we often go at lunchtime for just a starter and a glass of wine - today we had superb Cornish crab on sourdough toast which tasted as if the crab had just come out of the sea! What even surpasses the food is the warmth of the welcome from ?Rachel and her staff. It is noticeable that she shares the waitressing work with the staff, and is not just a maitresse d. Always good for staff morale!"
