The Masons Arms is a delightful country pub with rooms that is a charming example of Cotswold tradition and tastefully updated rooms. The pub itself serves very good and reasonably priced traditional pub food in a traditional and quaint setting. Service is friendly and efficient. The inclusive traditional Full English Breakfast was generous and spot on. We would certainly return. A special mention of Kate who was very helpful and friendly.

I had a pleasant stay. The beds were comfortable, and the breakfast was enjoyable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The only issue was that the blinds and window seals were a bit dusty, which triggered my allergies and caused frequent sneezing.

It’s a small, family-run hotel with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff personally walked us to our room. The dinner set was reasonably priced and incredibly delicious. Breakfast was great too—everything exceeded expectations. Highly recommended! And don’t forget to have dinner there!

Brilliant Stay & Brilliant Staff

We stayed at the Masons Arms for a wedding at the Cripps Barn and it was a short 10 minute taxi to the venue from this wonderfully quaint little stay in Mersey Hampton. Parking was free and easy, and the staff were SO incredibly helpful with finding us a taxi last minute and letting us check-in a little early to get changed. The room was great, water and shower extras provided and the breakfast the next morning was brilliant. Couldn't recommend any higher, but just make sure you book taxis in advance where possible as the companies usually have to travel from Circencester to pick you up!
