Picture the traditional, English country pub and imagine every ingredient needed to justify this classic description.

real ales from the cellar … genuine home-cooking … centuries of history … happy hosts … happy customers … gnarled oak beams … log fires in mid-winter … lively garden in summer … aunt sally … wide smiles … a warm and cosy atmosphere.

Welcome to The Leathern Bottle at Lewknor, a village tucked between the Chilterns and the Oxford Plain, the surrounding acres of farmland above and beyond, formally designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. A perfect location yet we are barely a minute from Junction 6 on the M40 motorway and the Oxford Tube bus stop. Convenient to reach, easy to find and tempting to visit.
