It was alright for one...

Disliked: The rooms weren’t that clean and the whole breakfast setup is a little strange, the breakfast itself was not great, uncooked sausage and black pudding, and clearly poached eggs don’t exist.

A hidden gem providing a...

Liked: Wonderful room. Spotlessly clean. Very comfortable bed. Decent amount of hangars. Good quality toiletries. Nespresso machine in the room. Good wifi. Very friendly and attentive staff. Great restaurant, with an excellent breakfast. The restaurant has a collection of very cool framed record album covers on the wall - a highlight (for me) amongst some classic gems being PWEI’s “Karmadrome” 12” single cover: very, very cool 😎
Disliked: Nothing. Couldn’t have been happier.

Very good

Disliked: Everything was perfect 🙂

Cozy quiet Inn near the...

Liked: The hotel was placed in a very convenient location to explore the best areas of the Cotswold. We had a "garden room" which was very convenient to come and go as we pleased (as the pub shuts after a certain time of the day with restricted access to certain rooms) and it was super quiet, despite being one of the busiest period of the year (Easter). The king size bed was very comfy, the bathroom had double sinks and a big shower/ bath. Breakfast was served a la carte (no buffet) but it was very tasty! We had both English and Continental breakfast options and both were very good! Ample parking, very friendly and helpful staff, cozy pub / conservatory area. Overall a very positive stay. :)
Disliked: Regulating the temperature of the hot water in the bath / shower took some adjustment, but got there in the end! :)Minor light bleeding through the curtain, but that did not cause major issues.

Pleasant but not 5*

Liked: Breakfast was excellent .All staff very pleasant and helpful
Disliked: Says 5 * not sure if self rated . Bathroom large two sinks,large bath , need new bins all tarnished ,both taps in sink move side-wards and very hard to switch off . Plastic toilet seat loose ,mould in bath grout . Luckily we were not paying full rate would have been more disappointed if had . Pub tired think seen better days .

Great overnight stop to break...

Liked: Well insulated, nicely decorated garden rooms, friendly staff. Beatiful garden, convenient location for our overnight stop on the way up to Yorkshire. Lovely short walks through the village and surrounding countryside. Good breakfast with informal relaxed atmosphere, combination of self service drinks and served meals.
Disliked: Could have been more attention to detail in the restaurant for dinner - steak ordered rare came out medium, fries missed off the mussels dish (but this was quickly rectified). Venison ragu was delicious but could have been paired with a more interesting pasta shape than penne to make it more special. However, it was nice to see enthusiastic young people working together to create a friendly atmosphere.
