We loved our stay at this hotel! The rooms were quaint and well made up. There was even a bathtub in our room, which was a game changer! We also really enjoyed dining at the property's pub, and the food was amazing! Very much enjoyed the fish and chips and the lamb special they were serving. The location is perfect if you're exploring the surrounding Cotswolds towns and don't want to stay in the center of the action. We would definitely return to this hotel when we come back to the Cotswolds in the future. Thanks for such a lovely stay!

Check in was super quick, inside the pub. The rooms were like Four little cottages, and it felt like you had your own little house, as you had a front door key. Each room had a table and chairs outside, so ideal if you smoke. The full English breakfast cooked to order, was excellent. Fresh, good quality ingredients, cooked perfectly. Parked in the pub car park, and had no problem getting a space.
