Just had a three Night stay at the Thames Head Inn and really cant fault it. All of the staff were cheerful and friendly from book in, bar, chef and waitresses. Our room was very cosy and ultra clean, and the the biscuits and tea and coffee facilities were very much appreciated. We visited Tetbury, Cirencester and Bath. All were very nice. The food is good also. We know from experience how disappointing and hit and miss accommodation can be but not The Thames Head. I would fully recommend it

Property was very pet friendly ( Monty even had his own sausage for breakfast free). Small caravan/ motorhome site adjacent to pub, only four letting rooms but excellent value for money,so book well in advance to secure your room, will definitely be returning.

Nice traditional pub

This venue is a good old fashioned pub. The food was amazing. I had an evening meal and breakfast. The price is competitive. The only reason i marked it down slightly was the room having really thick sone walls felt a little damp. I think in summer it's bliss and once winter starts and the heating is on it will be fine.
