I cannot comment on the rooms as have only visited for breakfast. Beautiful country pub with wonderful, warm and welcoming front of house staff. Dog friendly which is very important to us. Excellent breakfast and refreshing to find an establishment that provides decent food at fair prices. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for their new 'go to' breakfast location! Oh- and they've got parking!

I booked this as a surprise night away for my parents. I chose it for the modern rooms and horse pictures and they have been put in the most outdated room imaginable. There are no photos on their website of any other rooms other than the modern ones. I would not have booked this if I knew they would be put in a crap room for a high fee! To add to this they had a huge party in the evening until 12.30pm so my parents could not sleep. They also overheard the staff complaining about work in the morning and the chef not being there so the would have to find a replacement soon for breakfast. When breakfast time came around the said was a hour long, bad quality and orders incorrect. Overall a shambles and I will be requesting a refund!

Stumbled upon this pub when some friends and I were exploring the Cotswolds. Had a fantastic meal in a wonderful pun. The staff were very hospitable and even put up with our Australian senses of humour. Would highly recommend!

Just had Sunday lunch which was mediocre at best. Starter still frozen in the middle (breaded brie), main course only average with beef quite tough and vegetables pretty tasteless. What really took the biscuit was when I queried the bill, one pint san Miguel and one pint of lager shandy charged as two pints san Miguel. When questioned I was told that is correct and it is what it is, thinking about it afterwards do they actually charge a pint of lemonade at the same rate as a pint san Miguel?, I suspect not, so surely the shandy should be cheaper with its lemonade content, just hoping she was just too lazy to sort it out rather than actually trying to rip me off! As my wife pointed out: there is obviously a reason we were able to get a table at short notice when all other pubs in the area were fully booked. Shall not be returning.

Sadly a rather over priced and disappointing experience. |The staff were welcoming and were trying to do a good job.|The room was disappointing. Clearly it had had some gloss paint done; The fumes were very strong and it gave me a headache. The bed was hard and uncomforatble, and the 4 poster seemed wobbly and when you sat on it it banged on the wall. Could have done with more pillows or cushions as it was uncomfortable leaning against the wall and bed frame. The bathroom shower was very much in need of replacing, the tiles were cracked and the shower old and dirty looking. Splashes of paint were on the floor. |The food seemed very overpriced for what you got. My husband had lamb which was vert tough and overly rare. I ordered trout but what I got was salmon. It was tasty...just odd. Breakfast was OK. |Would not recommend.

Had lunch here the other day, which was very poor. I ordered a simple salad with ham and crusty bread. The salad arrived without the ham or bread, so then had to be brought out separately,.. not quite the same. The bread had been ripped into small chunks rather than left as a piece of bread, which looked unappetising. The table next to us were complaining that their burgers had been served cold. Would not recommend I'm afraid !!

We stayed for two nights in the cottage that sleeps six. We had a great stay with everything we needed. Although the cottage could do with a deep clean in the living areas, the bedrooms were clean, and the beds were extremely comfortable. I would definitely stay there again. The food was amazing and nothing was too much trouble. Having two coeliacs in our group who were more than happy with the selection of food, lots of gluten-free meals it made for very relaxing meals, and because of this, we ate all our meals here.

Arrived out of the blue and were made to feel very welcome. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the roast beef was absolutely delicious! Highly recommended. The lovely garden is also dog-friendly, which was a bonus.

Staying here for a 60 mike bike ride. This place is excellent, there are lots of lovely little touches dotted around the place. The rooms are great, though the paint on the walls is a little too dark for my liking everything else is perfick ! Food and ales are top notch and all the staff are lovely. I'll be back next year if not before

Lovely English pub in the heart of the Cotswolds. If you are seeking cask ale and updated English fare in an excellent example of an old school pub you should stop here! We were lucky to happen across it on our road trip through the area. Enjoy!

Great pub food, absolutely delicious fish and chips, tried my friend's. Crisp batter, tender mild and flaky fish, I had the mushroom macaroni and buttered greens. Nice wine list with a good house selection, and imports.
