We were warmly greeted on our arrival. Our room was very clean. The radiator was broken and they did warn us about that in advance. It was solved the next very next day. The breakfast was excellent with plenty of options.

Lovely character property, Lovely room very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was excellent. We ate in the pub one evening and the food was delicious. All staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was very good (about half an hour to a lot of the popular tourist places - Bourton on the Water, Broadway Tower etc). We will definitely stay again.

Upon check in the four poster room I had booked wasn’t available, was told they had a fire, this was untrue as the door was open and I looked in it was being refurbished with a new carpet waiting to be laid, totally lied to honesty is the best policy, we were give a dingy dirty room really horrible, how this has a 4.5 rating is beyond me I think they are fake reviews, my advice is don’t stay, the only plus side is that the breakfast was ok and really sweet waitress, I did receive 30 in drinks after questioning the price difference of the room, I feel it’s a totally fraudulent pub don’t book it

Quiet location in a pretty village near the church. The room was lovely with a comfortable bed, and the bar and restaurant were very welcoming.Excellent dinner and breakfast. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The only issue we had was with the very poor wi-fi connection in the room.

Yes, lovely locally sourced produce, we chose the venison pie for lunch, delicious, would recommend, meat platter later in the day, tasty too, “ off the hook ale “ a great ale and others to choose from. Breakfast hot, good choice, local produce and perfectly cooked, the comfort room was comfortable for our one night stay, no issues, lastly the staff were so welcoming and could not do enough for you, nothing too much trouble, a special mention to Jess also and the rest of the team such a relaxing beautiful place to stay, we will definitely visit again, also this is a perfect location if you are visiting the Cotswold Distillery as only a few miles away, Well Done to you all…Andrea & Carl

The staff was so lovely there, making sure everything was ok. The only reason i didnt give 5 stars, the room we stayed in was drafty and you needed to wrap yourself up a bit in bed. Could with double glazed windows. The food was lovely though, breakfast was lovely to.

We thoroughly enjoyed the cozy and clean room. The craft cocktails and cuisine on site are absolutely next level and far exceeded our expectations for this rural village hotel. Parking on site and all staff were helpful and so friendly. We would definately come back again, we already miss “The George!”

Lots of character, authentic, old inn. Good parking on site at rear with nice garden to sit in. Nice ambiance overall. Staff competent. Evening meal - we had the hake - was excellent. Good breakfast. The double room we stayed in overlooked the main street. It was sufficiently quiet although it was smaller than we would have liked. Satisfactory for one or two nights stay, and at the price point very acceptable. Would not rule out staying again if in the area.

A building full of character, good food, great staff and one of the best pints of Guinness I've ever had, and I've drank a few from all over the world. A very well sized full English breakfast sets you up for your day. This will be on my list of 'will go again' places to stay.
