The Bear Hotel

The Bear Hotel is one of the finest 4-star hotels in Oxfordshire, in what was once a 13th century coaching inn.

 

According to Coxe, Room 16 in this former coaching inn was said to have been the scene of significant poltergeist-like activity. Footsteps were also reported in the corridors.

 

Brooks states that it is haunted by the ghost of a workman who fell (or was possibly pushed) from the roof over 300 years ago, and that Room 12 has a haunted reputation.
