There's plenty of parking outside. 

Aston TirroldThe Chequers

You can find the Chequers on this map. You'll find that it is rarely referred to as the Chequers. People usually refer to the restaurant, The Sweet Olive.

Here's the website.

A lovely place to stop if you've been out walking over the Blewburton Hill. 

Nearby is the park.

Alvescot is between Bampton and Kennington. You can find it on this map.

Nakhon Thai

This is a Thai restaurant and is also along the same road the the Packhorse and the Pack Saddle. It is in Cane End and can be found on this map.The car park is huge, as is the playground and equipment.

The Lamb, Wantage

This pub is next to the mill in Wantage, just off the main shopping square. It has a big car park and a seating area outside which you access via the pub. You can find the pub here.

The garden itself is quite small but the equipment is probably enough entertainment for one drink. 

Horse and Harrow, West Hagbourne

A lovely big garden for your children to play in, two trampolines, a swing and a slide. Lovely outdoor garden furniture on decking so you can keep and eye on your children. 

Lots of parking, really easy to access and full of friendly locals. 

You can find this pub on this google map.

The Old Swan and Minster Mill

This is probably the nicest little 'pub' in the whole of Oxfordshire. Actually it isn't a pub - it's a five star hotel set in what used to be a pub. It is gorgeous. The gardens are beautiful. The bar and restaurant area are immaculate and everywhere you look there's something interesting. There's what looks like a well in the restaurant area, covered over with glass, the garden isn't just well kept, it is manicured, and every space in the restaurant is presented as well as it could possibly be. 

You can find the Old Swan on this map.

We didn't eat here, we just stopped by for a drink after a long afternoon at the Leys park in Witney and before we went to Lovell house. We ended up staying an hour as the children were refusing to leave because the playground was so good.
