Really nice - apart from all the tables inside had reserved on them at 8.30 so we could sit and have a drink the bar staff said they would be occupied - but still empty at 10.30 ( meanwhile we froze & got bitten outside ! We told housekeeping we would be 20 mins but they never made our room up & replaced towels / teabags etc …

Nice retreat

The place is beautiful but the menu was a bit of a let down. Same menu day and night. Also our room was lovely except bathroom door opened up to end of bed so manuring was difficult! Overall lovely place staff were helpful and pleasant

Fantastic find!

We loved our night at the Stump! We had a nice pizza for lunch when we arrived and sat outside in the sunshine. We found the room to be comfortable and cozy.I opted for a light breakfast of toast and jam and really enjoyed it. Gotta love granary bread (can’t get in USA!) The home grown tulips on the tables were a nice touch too. Everything about the place was pleasing. I’d definitely recommend staying here. Thank you!

Excellent place to stay.

Excellent choice to stay. Room was very comfortable and quiet. Garden area was lovely in the sun and the freshly cooked Pizza was first class. Delicious cooked breakfast. The service from the staff was also very attentive and friendly. We immediately recommended this place to our friends for a short break.

We had a lovely one night stay at The Stump while visiting our son who lives in Cirencester. It’s very well located and just what we were hoping for. Our room was warm and comfortable and well furnished, the service was friendly. Breakfast was nice and we had an evening meal the night before which was delicious.

Excellent location, food and comfy bed

Excellent location between the famous places in Cotswold. Friendly staffs, outstanding pizza, ragu pasta for dinner, the portion of breakfast was big and tasty. Love the cosy pub restaurant with a pool table. It was quite busy already when we got there around 6ish, the restaurant was fully booked. At least we were able to sit down at the bar area. Do book a table in advance. Room is spotless and warm, twin double beds were comfy and enough for us 3 or fam of 4, basically with everything we needed.
