Fantastic Stay - You won’t find better value.

Fantastic, went above and beyond. Went for my partner’s birthday and she loved it. They couldn’t have done enough. The personal tour around the premises was the most in detail one I’ve ever had. Breakfast being included for the price is unbelievable value and the little extras they surprise you with make it all the more special. Thank you.

This hotel is gorgeous for a peaceful getaway. I stayed for my birthday and in the room was a card and some complimentary chocolates. Also complimentary sloe gin! The room is cosy and with everything you’d need. I was most impressed by the food here! I couldn’t believe the breakfast was included, you get a cooked meal from the menu as well as fruit and pastries from the buffet. I’d encourage everyone staying to book dinner at The Crown! The food was incredible and the staff very accommodating.

An honest review!

When we first arrived, it took 20 minutes for someone to come to the check in desk. I was told that we could have the room from 13:00 if I paid a £25 fee, which I agreed to. On arrival the room wasn’t ready until 15:00, but there was no early payment charged thankfully. We were shown your room, and told that we had Netflix available in our room, and to help ourselves to their pantry if we needed supplies of anything. We went out for tea and returned back to the hotel. When we tried to click on Netflix, it said network error. We watched ITV so weren’t too fussed that Netflix wasn’t working, but to some this would be an issue. The pantry was code locked, and we weren’t left the code to access it. We went down to reception and nobody was at the desk so returned to our room, where we tried to call reception 20 minutes later and no reply. We also called the night porter in case he has started his shift and no reply either so we couldn’t access this for towels / teabags. Overall the room was clean and warm, but let down by small things that happened on our stay.

Lovely location and cosy place

Really lovely stay at such a beautiful b&b: beautiful rooms and amazing views. Perfect for a weekend to just stay in and do nothing! Breakfast was really nice and the pub attached has really good food too. Staff were lovely too, overall a really nice stay.

Great couples' getaway

My husband and I stayed here while visiting the Cotswold's and it was a fantastic stay. It is close to all the main little towns you would want to see (all within a 45min drive) but, it is also completed secluded which is so nice too. The hotel itself is lovely- warm, cozy, modern, clean. They have a beautiful outdoor terrace, opened even in the winter. The restaurant is great too, when we came it was very busy and they ran out of a lot of their menu options which was a bit annoying but, we it didn't affect our trip at all. The people working there were very helpful and kind. I would recommend this hotel to everyone!
