Room smelt of drains, noise from staff talking and laughing in rooms below from 6 am Sunday morning felt like they were in the same room. If you want breakfast they charge extra for tea and coffee and add a service charge. So a full English and 2 coffees is over £25 - that is taking the mickey as I would not pay that in a 5* hotel in London.

Perfect base for a tour of the Cotswolds.

Great place to stay. The accommodation is full of character, the staff are really friendly and welcoming, good food and the town is really nice. Excellent little coffe shop opposite. Give it a try.

We stayed two nights b&b in a dog friendly room. It was as we expected, an old coaching inn and busy bars. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was very good and the staff were attentive. Good value for money

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Despite calling to say I was disabled the “ground floor” room involved climbing very steep deep steps. Despite the rules being no noisy parties in the rooms we were above the band night. The noise was awful. No food served on Sunday night - with no advice ahead of time. Generally very unhappy with this property
