In 1753 there were two licensed houses, probably, as in 1786, the Swan in Minster Lovell village, and the White Hart on the Witney—Burford road. In the 1930s the Swan became a hotel and restaurant, and in the early 21st century was run in connection with a conference centre established in the former mill nearby. The Swan hotel at the village's south-western end, exceptional in retaining a timber-framed cross-wing probably of the 16th century, with a jettied first floor.

This pretty village of Cotswold stone and thatched roofs is romantically positioned on the River Windrush. Reputedly the region’s most haunted village, Minster Lovell is best known for the ruins of its 15th century hall, owned by generations of the Lovell family and now an impressive ancient monument.
