Jolly Boatman, Oxfordshire.

Motorhome friendly. Stayed one night in their carpark last Saturday. Lovely pub, great food. Bus stops 50 yards up the road into Oxford centre. Thoroughly recommended.

Not a huge carpark, so personally I'd ring ahead. But I got my 7.5m van in there no problem.

Great tip, thanks. So were they happy for you to leave the 'van there & bus into town for the day?

Yep. We ate a big lunch there (I thought it was the right thing to eat lunch or dinner there), caught the bus into town, got back about 1am to find there was another van (a PVC) also parked there. Left in the morning before the pub opened, about 11.

I'd ask them where they'd prefer you to park, it might be different depending on your size. There are barriers to the car park outside of pub opening times, but just ask - they'll explain how that all works.

Not many places to stay in Oxford overnight, so even at the cost of a pub meal I thought that was worth it.
