In an area where there are countless little country hotels, this is a real gem of a find. The staff are incredibly kind, warm and welcoming; food is served all day and is absolutely delicious; the bedrooms are incredibly comfortable and well thought through; and the breakfast buffet is simply delightful!

Our stay was lovely. Couldn’t fault the service the only downside was the bed and pillows were not comfortable and the rooms are hot, so could each do with a fan in at least rather than having to get one from the pantry

Nice hotel but overpriced

We stayed here for 2 nights after reading mostly good reviews. The staff were nice but not very helpful, nobody explained to us that breakfast was included etc. The hotel was clean, but the rooms were stuffy and hot. The pillows were really uncomfortable!!! The little touch of a milk delivery in the morning was nice. It’s a quick drive into Cirencester, so the hotel is in a good location. Overall, I think this hotel is overpriced and the staff should explain things better to new guests about their stay.
