The family room was perfect for our family and it is right in the heart of Cobham. Yet, the restaurant and rooms are slightly off the road which provides a bit more privacy and it is not noisy.

Liked: Cleanliness
Nice property and perfect location. Very good food, though a bit expensive. Owners were very nice. Parking easy and accessible. We would have love to stay in the main house; not on the side appartments. Did no enjoy arriving at 21hs (still daylight) and finding the place dark and closed. We had to phone called to have a person drive to the hotel and check us in while waiting outside. Room was very nice and convenient. Also comfortable, though the smaller room had a smell to it.

We loved everything about the Dial House. Its location in the center of Bourton on the Water made it easy to get around. We had 3 different rooms due to making reservations at different times & they were all comfortable & charming. The breakfasts were delicious & filling. I highly recommend The Dial house!

A reasonably priced property that is quaint and central to the village. The room was tiny and smelled musty, especially the bathroom. There were also big cobwebs above the wardrobe. It was fine for one night and we had an excellent breakfast. If I was staying longer than one night I would pay for a better room. The communal rooms were lovely. We were able to keep the car in the car park for a few hours after checking out which was much appreciated. The staff was friendly, kind and helpful.

Nice old place that you would be looking for in the country side of the UK but be aware .. no AC and that was disappointing since there was no mention of that in the description. In summary, high end cute place with no AC which I found surprising.

Overall pictures online is not what we received, rooms were very small, right next to the bar so was alot of noise, mould on sealent around bathroom, marks on walls and marks on carpet, then the expense of it all, the rooms are not worth the price we paid for them and no breakfast included in price either and price they charge is way overpriced. We paid £10 for a pot of tea which is shocking especially seeing as we were staying with them like at least give us a discount. Then £21.50 we was told breakfast was even though online I read it was £23 but either way again way overpriced when we went to another hotel up the road and paid £15 and got an amazing breakfast including drinks and cooked food and buffet. We wouldn't return. The only positive really is the free parking they have and the staff were all very nice and seemed helpful. But just feel it's abit of a tourist trap and they know they can over charge because they have good parking facilities and in a good location.

Super cute, but terrible bed

Incredible location in a super cute historical building. Charm to spare. While the room size was really small, it was manageable. The inexcusable thing was the cheap, hard, and painful mattress. I’m so happy we only were staying one night or I would have needed a full body massage.

Fantastic location, really good it has parking, garden area really nice, staff were very friendly. Only negative was we were on the ground floor of the coach house and the noise from the room above and the slamming doors wasn't good and prevented a good sleep.
