A very pleasant 2 night stay. Owners were very friendly and welcoming. Food in the restaurant was very good. Rooms had been updated and were done to a high standard. Our room did become a little hot due to a sunny day and just windows to allow in the air. Breakfasts were excellent but at busy times I felt for the staff as they were definitely stretched though they did their utmost to keep everything going. Well done to them. We would stay again for sure.

Gorgeous room in a comfy pub. Staff were welcoming and friendly, offering tips on walking routes and things to see and do in Winchcombe. The breakfast was excellent and a pint by the fire was welcome after a day's walking.
