Welcome
The Spread Eagle hotel in Oxfordshire has stood imposingly in the heart of historic Thame since the 16th century, famous for its farmer’s market and mile long Main Street. During its colourful history this Thame hotel has played host to Charles II, French prisoners from the Napoleonic wars, famous politicians and writers such as Evelyn Waugh.
The Georgian facade is instantly recognisable by all, drawn in by the unmissable 30-ft sign originally designed by Lytton Strachey’s Carrington which has welcomed our guests for nearly a century. Our discerning customers' needs for a warm welcome, attentive but discreet service and excellent food and wine has not changed since the days of John Fothergill, the hotel’s pioneer innkeeper.
The fantastic city of Oxford, with its dreamy spires and punting on the River Thames is within easy reach, along with the historic town of Aylesbury and for shopping addicts, Bicester Outlet Village is only minutes away. The Spread Eagle is one of the best placed hotels in Oxfordshire from which to explore all the county has to offer.
