The Fish Hotel

I recently stayed here for my birthday with my two young children and our dog, and it was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The hotel was spotless, the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere was both child- and dog-friendly. We immediately felt welcome and comfortable, which made our stay so enjoyable. The hotel goes above and beyond for dogs — with beds provided both in the room and at dinner, water bowls and treats available throughout, and lots of useful information about local walks and activities. We enjoyed the on-site nature trail and were lucky enough to spot deer along the way. There were lovely touches for the whole family, from the pick ’n’ mix station that delighted my son to the wine vending machine for adults. Overall, a beautiful hotel with excellent attention to detail. We are already planning to return next year and I would highly recommend it.

Wow! From the moment you enter the long drive you known you’re in for a treat! Every member of staff we spoke to were so friendly and helpful, our dog was made as welcome as we were! The room (stable block) was beautifully appointed with everything both we and our dog could need. The wine tap Outside our room with credit was a real treat! The grounds are beautiful and we really enjoyed following hen nature trail around it and our dog had fun in the agility course! Lunch, dinner and breakfast was had and all Meals were delicious with plenty of Choice. We loved it here and are planning our next visit already.

We want to take a moment to express our sincere appreciation for the unforgettable experience we had during our four-night stay at the “Fish”. The hotel offers its guests a wide variety of dining options, spa, and an activity catered to the four seasons. ||It was a wonderful surprise when the staff offered to escort my mother with mobility issues to breakfast to and from her room. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. They went out of their way to ensure our stay with our moms was comfortable and enjoyable. ||Overall, our experience at the Fish Hotel exceeded our expectations, and we will be recommending the hotel to our colleagues, friends, and family. ||We will cherish our time and look forward to returning to your hotel in the future. Thank you again for making our stay with our moms so memorable. || Cheers-

A good 10 min, 2 mile drive from the main road (I'd not want to do in the winter) it has a variety of accommodation. Reception is a lounge where you sit down with a receptionist, although we would have welcomed knowing what was where on site apart from you can probably see your accommodation out the window. We had a very clean and comfortably furnished room though. Lots of nice touches - lovely toiletries and free sweets! Communal facilities were a walk away. Breakfast was ample and well cooked. Room could get cold and you could not control the temperature, but immaculately clean. A good stay a bit pricey what it was.

Stayed 3 nights in a coach house room as our “Minimoon”. HUGE room and bathroom - loved it, really comfortable room, great facilities and extras / snacks (The Fish beer was welcome) slept really well. Loved the location - albeit, it is a drive off of the main road - but it does make it quiet and lovely there.|Check in was relaxed and informal, bar area was lovely (you can eat there too) although be careful on where you sit as some of the lamps are hung quiet low and I did manage to hit my head every time 😀|We ate in both the main restaurant and within the bar area and enjoyed both meals, with the main restaurant being much more formal and pricy.|Depending on where you stay within the grounds, you do need to be mindful of where you stay because there can be a lot of steps.|Overall the stay was great, and would give it a thumbs up 👍

The Fish is really special and every aspect of the experience was exquisite. We spent the night but wish we had booked for longer. The place is stunning and the nature and the surroundings striking! We were visiting as a couple and celebrated our anniversary and the staff were incredible in making this time really special and memorable for us. Everyone we interacted with was so lovely, welcoming and helpful. The stay felt like a retreat and so peaceful. The restaurant and the main hub area have everything you need and each part of the estate has amazing views and nature walks. Our suite was gorgeous, furnished and decorated with great attention to detail. The bathroom was spacious and very modern, tastefully furnished but still functional. the food was so tasty and fresh - a generous breakfast buffet in addition to an a la carte menu. All local ingredients too! We loved everything about our stay.

Sometimes I wonder if I only ever give good reviews….perhaps it’s down to luck or great research…who knows 🤷‍♀️. However, I do know The Fish absolutely deserves our 5 star review. ||We stayed over the August bank holiday weekend with Cooper, our rather excitable cocker spaniel. We only experienced excellent friendly service and beautiful food (the breakfast and the mussels were particularly good). The cocktail menu is a bit different and there was a delicious and thoughtful acknowledgement of our birthdays waiting for us. ||Our Hideaway hut was perfect. There are two which are dog friendly and Cooper was totally safe in the outside space. The huts are really well appointed with so many little touches like cows and alternative milk in the fridge, complimentary nibbles, a fan and beautiful toiletries. The shower room and toilet area is very small but hopefully most people aren’t sending too much time in there!||The Fish is genuinely dog friendly if that is important to you. He was spoilt rotten, a dog bed already in place by our table for our evening meals and a sausage (or 2) at breakfast (subject to approval from the human parents 😀)||We have now stayed at Foxhill Manor and The Fish and can say with confidence that we will be back very soon.

Amazing place, Amazing service, Amazing Food. As you have guessed, we've really enjoyed staying here. The environment is lovely, staff very friendly, so many little details offered and taken care during our stay. We'll definitely be coming back.

We go to Europe every couple of years, and the kids won't let us stay anywhere else! The grounds are breathtaking, the service is wonderful, and the feasting deck is unforgettable!

The lounge at the Fish has the most amazing, undiscovered pastry chef. Her name is Abbey, and she is completing her apprenticeship. Her Lemon Meringue is worth flying from NYC to London and traveling to Fish to taste. In my 45 years I have never had a better dessert and that is saying a lot! Brilliant!!! Abbey is a talent - the world should be watching.

Great location just outside of Broadway but close to everything. Fantastic setting and amazing views in the sprawling Farncombe estate. A regret of our trip was not having enough time to really explore the grounds more. Small but smartly decorated suite that somehow managed to be modern, cozy, luxurious, and evocative of the rural throwback fishing theme. Excellent amenities including Cotswold woolen blankets in the rooms and high end soaps and shampoos. Great, hearty breakfast service. High quality of food and service at dinner too. Impeccable service at the front desk. Sadly, with all they're doing right, there were still a few rough spots: Iffy wifi that only worked in the lobby. Activities that were highly touted on their website and were a main reason for our staying there, only to be booked solid all weekend. (They had slots for a paltry six individuals per hour, limited hours, and some of them were age restricted. Maybe some extra capacity could be added on busy weekends?) Rooms with no closets, and very little storage at all. (That was common for the rooms we booked on our trip, though. This would not be a concern for a couple on a weekend getaway, but it was challenging for a family on a longer vacation.) Overall, however, we loved our stay here, would recommend it and would return ourselves.

Incredible hotel. Food was amazing​. Stayed in one of the ​the shepherd's​​ huts and it was beautiful inside very clean and everything you could need. Staff were lovely​ and in a great location.

Very friendly staff, impeccably clean, sophisticated cocktails, beautiful decor.
