Default Place to stay in Oxford - Grove

I'm going to a conference in the Williams F1 Centre and I'm after suggestions of a nice place to stay overnight somewhere in the area.

A B&B where I can get a nice dinner and a proper fresh english breakfast is what I'm after

Thnx

is the Williams place near Wantage (south of Oxford)? i have a mate who's dad works there and there is a nice Inn i n their Village not far from the plant. if that sounds like the place let me know and I'll ask them for a recomendation.

EDIT -yes it is near my mates house. i'll try and find out a good B&B. You'd be better staying in Wantage or Abingdon than Oxford as it's much closer to the centre

I've had my own tour of the place. I used to work in there.

I installed all the data services in the new conference centre. The company I worked for had the contract to keep all the data services updated. It pretty much gave me access to every single area of the complex. Something that even permanent employees don't have.

It truly is quiet awesome.
