Amazing!

Amazing! I have stayed before in the pub but this time I was given the “cob”. A lovely annex out the back - absolutely beautiful and amazing value for money. Attentive service. Great outdoor space with a pizza oven. Will be going back soon for sure.

This is a great pub with v good food and stunning gardens to sit in the sun BUT do not stay in Room 6 (has bathtub) it’s top of the pub and like a furnace. Only one small window opens and all heat from pub gets trapped in the stairwell and into the room. Staff put a fan in there made no difference - even gave us bucket of ice but still horrifically hot - it NEEDS an aircon unit.

Really enjoyed our 1 night stay- lovely room, toiletries, great breakfast, staff were friendly and the outdoor area was lovely in the sun. However we were surprised that the hotel/ pub closed up at 11pm on a Saturday evening so when we got back from dinner we found ourselves locked out. Turns out we hadn’t been given a side door key on arrival. All was resolved but was a little surprised! We also found the rooms to have very very thin walls and floors.. so we were woken up by other guests very early

Beautiful Cotswolds stay

This is a very special place to stay. Wonderful welcoming hosts, and exceptional food. It’s very traditional but also luxurious and the open fires in the restaurant and individually decorated rooms are such a treat. I would highly recommended this hotel.
