Relax in beautiful rustic sophistication!! Conveniently situated on the main A361, a short hop from Chipping Norton and the "Glorious Cotswolds" lies this simply delightful country inn.
From The Banbury Guardian The Mason's Arms came runner-up for the Morning Advertiser Food Pub of the Year title at the same event.Chef Bill Leadbeater, who runs the pub with his wife Charmaine, said he was initially disappointed not to win but was pleased to have got as far as they did. Mr Leadbeater said: "It's marvellous. We have only been here 18 months, and to turn a run-down and empty pub into a regional winner and runner-up in a national final is more than we would have dreamed of."The pub won the regional award for London and the Home Counties before Christmas and thas now received a sign to erect outside to mark its award. Bill added he would be keeping on his toes for next year's awards. "We would like to try to get nominated again, perhaps in a different category," he said.
