About The Feathers
The Feathers Hotel, situated in the centre of historic Woodstock on the doorstep of Blenheim Palace. Originally seven separate houses, the hotel boasts character and charm with antiques and log fires. Woodstock is one of England's most beautiful and famous country towns. Constructed largely from Cotswold stone, its buildings date from the 12th century. It is host to a wealth of interesting shops, restaurants and historical buildings - including the Oxfordshire County Museum. Situated only eight miles from 'The Dreaming Spires' of the historic University of Oxford, on the edge of the spectacular Cotswolds and huddling next to the gates of Blenheim Palace - home of the 11th Duke of Marlborough and the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill, Woodstock has much to offer its visitors. Woodstock is just one hour's drive from London Heathrow, Birmingham and Cheltenham - Shakespeare's Stratford is a mere 45 minutes away. All rooms have been designed and decorated, for your comfort, using antiques and original paintings. Each room is individually named, therefore giving them their own character and ambience. The rooms are located throughout the original seven houses and with its winding staircases and corridors it is easy to get lost within the labyrinth of The Feathers. The rooms vary in size and location, with some sited in The Feathers House - just 10 yards from the main hotel reception. Due to the age of the building, there is no lift at the hotel.
