We have an amazing opportunity for a driven, high performing General Manager to run one of our Vintage Inns!

Woodstock Road, Yarnton, Oxfordshire, OX5 1PJ
SALARY: Up to £45,000 plus bonus and live-in accommodation

The Turnpike is rich in historical culture. Built over two hundred years ago, the pub building is constructed of Cotswold Stone and once described as ‘the finest in Oxfordshire’ by Poet Laureate, Sir John Betjeman. Located near the birthplace of Winston Churchill, Blenheim Palace, and situated close to Oxford, it is an ideal location packed with heritage and interesting things to do.
