Lovely grounds and staff. Room was large but dated and not as luxurious as I would expect for price point $450 -500 per night. Breakfast was great.

If you’re traveling to the Cotswolds in the summer time it may be difficult to stay and enjoy the rooms at the Slaughters Country Inn when the sun is high because there is no AC or central air. Fans will suffice to circulate the air and you can ask for more with reception. The property was lovely, the staff was great and the ambiance was wonderful.

Had a lovely couple of nights staying here. Staff and food were 5 star all the way. My only criticism was that as someone with mobility issues the stairs to access our room were hard. If we came again would explore the opportunity to stay in one of the downstairs properties

My wife had a lovely 2 night break here in the Cotswolds. The Slaughters Country Inn more than met our expectations. Beautiful setting and excellent service from all the staff. Our room was spacious and clean and the food was outstanding. Recommend visiting Bourton on Water, and for beer lovers the Hawkstone brewery tour is worth doing, only a 10 minute walk away.
