The Fuzzy Duck

This was our second stay at the Fuzzy Duck. |Staff were polite, helpful, friendly and made us feel welcome. |We stayed in the cosy Indian Runner room which was spotless, tastefully furnished, comfortable bed and lovely soft pillows. No need for 8 cushions on the bed though, they don’t add any benefit!!) |Thought the food pantry a great idea, well stocked with every variety of tea, coffee pods, cake, biscuits and water and milk in the fridge. |Food was excellent both breakfast and evening meal and as I had previously subscribed to their mailing list received 15% off the food which was a nice bonus. |The Fuzzy Duck is well located for the attractions of Warwickshire and Cotswolds.|Can recommend a stay here!

A Perfect Stay at The Fuzzy Duck, Armscote From start to finish, our stay at The Fuzzy Duck was absolutely perfect. This charming little hotel, tucked away near the beautiful Cotswolds, is a true hidden gem. The food was exceptional — every dish was beautifully cooked and full of flavour, making each meal a real highlight of our trip. Our room was equally impressive: the bed was genuinely one of the comfiest I have ever slept in, offering a perfect night’s sleep in peaceful surroundings. What really stood out, though, was the service. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for — friendly, attentive, and professional in every way. If you’re looking for a cosy, luxurious escape with fantastic food and outstanding hospitality, look no further than The Fuzzy Duck. We can’t wait to return!

Top quality stay in this boutique country pub with rooms. Comfortable well appointed room with fab toiletries. Excellent restaurant for dinner and superb breakfast. Car park with free electric charging. |Location great for visits to local attractions.

We enjoyed an overnight stay in Indian Runner and found it just prefect. Indian Runner is a compact room with very little storage so good for a short stay. The room is quite beautiful with a very comfy bed. We liked the ensuite shower room with a roomy walk-in shower and big soft towels. The pantry situated alongside the bedrooms is a great idea with everything including fresh milk for your drinks - nice cake too!!||We had dinner in the restaurant which was excellent and breakfast the following morning was lovely served in another very stylish room. Finally the staff a fairly young team excelled and ensured that there is nothing “fuzzy” about the running of this great place. Check the excellent website and book on line direct I’m sure you will enjoy.

Really disappointed with the restaurant. Had driven an hour to get here because of ratings, had asked to be seated at a quieter table as one of our party has sensory issues, was slap bang in the middle. My side plate was dirty with a chunk of dried on food, service was ridiculously slow with dirty plates left for over ten minutes at a time and waiting staff were slow to ask if we wanted further drinks. Food was okay, enjoyed the oysters, but the quack and chips which all 3 of us had was average at best. The room itself was really cold, with several older patrons sat in their coats as they ate. It really wasn't anywhere near as good as I expected, and for the money we paid, I expected a much higher standard. This was a special meal for my mum, feel like I let her down by taking her here as it just wasn't a great experience.

The Fuzzy Duck - A Mixed Experience of Flavor and Value We recently dined at The Fuzzy Duck for lunch and left with mixed impressions. The food was undeniably tasty. The duck confit boasted rich, well-balanced flavors, and the rack of lamb was cooked to perfection. The chefs clearly have a knack for crafting tasty dishes, which was a highlight of the meal. However, the experience was marred by a few drawbacks. It took 50 minutes for our order to arrive, which tested our patience. Also the value for money was questionable. The rack of lamb portion was surprisingly small—only three tiny pieces for a premium price. Similarly, while the duck confit was flavorful, its portion size left us wanting more. Overall, The Fuzzy Duck is a bit of a mixed bag. If you prioritize taste and don’t mind waiting or paying a premium for smaller portions, you’ll likely enjoy your meal.

A lovely peaceful place to stay. Staff all very welcoming and created a very calm atmosphere. Room was clean and very comfortable if on the small side. Food was excellent and very good value. Great breakfast included in the room price. Garden looks like a good place to sit once the summer comes. We will be back.

Wonderful pub with rooms a few minutes off the main road. Tastefully decorated room, bed and pillows offered a wonderful night's sleep. Service was exceptional, nothing was too much effort. Food was tasty, well presented and well priced. Lovely little area by the fire for pre meal drinks.highly recommended

Best roast dinner in the cotswolds. Loved finding this cosy pub on our visit to the cotswold. the drinks, food and team were outstanding

A real gem! The food is phenomenal, rooms are excellent and the service is absolutely spot on! I would highly recommend this place.

Food was absolutely fabulous. Desserts were spectacular. Highly recommend this restaurant!!

The Fuzzy Duck! Doesn't the name alone give you warm-and-fuzzies? The silhouette of a mama duck and several wee ducklings are displayed in several spots at The Fuzzy Duck. And, although just opened in 2013, there's a feeling of roundedness, of permanence and history here. The balance of modern-with-tradition is a tough one to strike, so it was nice to see this so well-mastered at The Fuzzy Duck. Double perk: it's a way to take in Stratford-Upon-Avon without having to stay too long in the tourist hubbub. Escape to the land of gravel driveways and local ales and (in the chilly months) mulled wine, my friends! I would absolutely come to The Fuzzy Duck again, with its Hunter boots on offer for stay-over guests (even a teeny weeny pair for mud-loving toddlers) and thick-knit wooly blankets. The dining room is done in "Farmhouse chic" with neutrals, but also some punchy edgy touches - see: Madonna (the cone-bra-one, not the religious one) captured in art in the women's bathroom. The bar area has some big chairs, a fireplace, and a bar on tap from the local 'shire. I can strongly recommend the coffee (it's Monmouth from London, which brews especially nicely into an americano). "Best of beef" was a delicious entree including some perfectly cooked sweet breads. The burger was bizarre; mayonnaise-y and with a raisin-studded apple compote on the bottom. It suited me just fine, but if I wasn't one to love the combination of fruity toppings with protein the lack of forewarning about burger toppings would have been an (unpleasant) surprise. Pork belly was perfectly - and deliciously - cooked, and sitting aside it a crispy fried ball of black pudding. Desserts include the option of made-to-order financiers; I didn't opt for one, but it's top of my list when I return. Yelp note: leave some time to enjoy this pub leisurely, and be sure to make time for a walk 'round the charming Armscote afterwards.

A very beautiful, quintessially English boutique Inn! If you ever get the chance to visit this quiet little gem of a place in the Cotswolds for either dining or staying - you won't regret it. The current owners have recently taken over and renovated and it feels like a 5 star luxury hotel in the quaint English countryside. I travel a lot for both business and pleasure and I am lucky enough to stay in the most luxrious hotels around the world and I have to say, this little place is right up there with the best of them for dining, accomodations and attention to small details. I even received a late night "hamper" full of breakfast goodies when they knew I would be up early to catch a train. The food was absolutely delicious and they even have Hunter boots and cozy woolen wraps at your disposal in case you feel like taking a walk around the Hamlet. My room was beautifully made up with all the latest amenities, as well. I loved everything about it!
