The New Inn

This is a food-led pub: you know that because the staff were always asking if I enjoyed my food but no one asked if I slept well! The food was delicious and the service was generally friendly and efficient. A special shout-out go to the breakfast team who were really attentive both mornings and nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast chef was also excellent. I stayed in room 3 which was a mistake. Although it's a large comfortable room with a walk-in shower, it's directly above the bar. They play music downstairs until the bar shuts at 11pm. I don't think it's particularly loud but the age of the building probably means the beat from the music resonates around more. They play seemingly interminable songs which means you hear the same beat for absolutely ages. I think it would be more reasonable to stop the music at 10pm than 11pm to let their overnight guests get to sleep at a more reasonable time. It is after all, a village pub and I didn't expect music to be pumping out so late! I'd eat here again but if I were to stay, I'd ask for a room in the annex.

We absolutely loved our stay at The New Inn at Coln. Choosing this place instead of staying in one of the more crowded tourist hotels nearby turned out to be one of the best decisions of our Cotswolds trip. While it’s only about a 10-minute drive to busier and more lively areas where you can spend time exploring, dining and enjoying yourself, coming back here in the evening was a real pleasure. The atmosphere is calm, the surroundings are beautiful, and you truly get to rest your mind and enjoy the village feel. Our room was wonderfully arranged — cosy, stylish and very comfortable, with great attention to detail. The breakfast was excellent, fresh and well prepared, and the evening bar had a fantastic, warm atmosphere that made us want to stay longer each night. Overall, the setting, the comfort, the food and the peaceful environment made this stay truly special. I would definitely recommend The New Inn at Coln to anyone visiting the area. For us, it was without question the best accommodation choice we made during our trip.

We stayed at The New Inn the night before and the night of our wedding, booking around 10 rooms for ourselves and our guests – and everything was just perfect from start to finish. Everyone had nothing but lovely things to say about the rooms, the staff, and the pub in general. My family are already talking about coming back again! A huge special thanks to Mason, who was absolutely fantastic in helping me organise a reservation for an area in the pub the night before the wedding. He went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. The food was incredible – honestly one of the best burgers we’ve ever had, and everyone agreed! Breakfast the next morning was also delicious – so, so good. On the morning of the wedding, in the rush of everything, I accidentally left my room unlocked and forgot to bring my key. Halfway through the day, I saw Mason arrive at the venue – he’d come all the way over just to drop off my keys! I couldn’t believe it. Such a kind gesture and a perfect example of how passionate he is about hospitality and making sure guests are looked after. He truly works so hard, and it really shows. Thank you so much to everyone at The New Inn – you made such a special time in our lives even more wonderful. We can’t wait to come back!

We hosted our Christmas work meal here and it was fantastic! We had a semi-private room which was perfect and beautifully decorated with a roaring fire. The food was delicious, every dish executed well with the front of house team coordinating the service seamlessly for our large group. Everyone was really friendly and nothing too much trouble - we will definitely be back.

Booked at last moment and what a pleasant surprise. ||Great pub with a good selection of real ales. Barman on the 12/11/25 was very friendly as were all the locals both young and old. All spoilt our two retrievers, and helped us find the right local walk. ||Staff in the restaurant were really friendly and particular thanks go to Amber. We both had the ‘Smash n grab’ burger which was fantastic as was the cheesecake. ||The full English breakfast in the morning was perfect. ||We were both made to feel so welcome by all staff and the dog friendly room no. 8 was great. ||We will be back I am sure.

Boxing Day Flop Lovely Pub Good Food Terrible Service To sum up our experience: We booked a table for 1pm boxing day 2 months in advance, sent our pre-order and paid a £100 deposit. We didnt get a reply to our pre order email. When we arrived at 1pm the staff seemed confused and said they hadn't received our pre-order and asked us to resend. I resent the email, at which point they seemed to find the original pre-order. Halfway through eating our meal a waiter to came to tell us they would need the table back at 2.30. We reluctantly agreed (original email said we would have 2 hours). At this point service seemed to stop and we were sat with dirty plates on the table for 30 minutes after we finished eating. The waitress finally arrived at 2.15 to rudely ask if we'd finished eating because we needed to leave in ten minutes. We asked about dessert and she said you dont have time. She printed the bill (£400 including £40 service charge). When we told her we had paid £100 deposit she rudely disagreed, went off to check and said although a deposit of £10 a head is usually taken she could find no record of it. Things were getting a bit heated at this point so we paid and left. On returning home we found confirmation of the £100 deposit paid so we're now £500 down with only a rushed meal with rude service to show for it.

From the moment we arrived, Sophie— at The New Inn—made our experience absolutely exceptional. Her warm welcome instantly set the tone for our visit, and throughout our stay she went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Sophie’s professionalism, genuine kindness, and attention to detail are second to none. She handled every request with a smile and made us feel more like valued guests than customers. Whether it was helping with local recommendations, ensuring our meals were just right, or simply checking in to make sure we were comfortable, her dedication truly stood out.

Stayed for two nights to attend a wedding nearby.|Reception was very friendly despite the staff being busy with bar and restaurant service. The rooms are well decorated and spacious.|This is clearly a well frequented local establishment. I would say that parking is an issue as the car park isn’t large and lots of cars are parked on the road.|The food was typical pub style but was very good. I had the burger which was substantial and good quality. The restaurant was booked up but there was seating outside under umbrellas and the area was heated.|Breakfast was excellent with good quality sausages in particular. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.||Overall it was a very pleasant stay and for a weekend break I would be very happy to recommend it.

This inn offers plenty of outdoor seating (covered) as well as a refined indoor dining area and casual indoor dining area. Service is friendly. Recommend: treacle sponge and custard

Neat and well presented pub with rooms in the chocolate box village of Coln. My room was on the small side but clean and comfortable. As with many similar inns , room access can be a bit difficult so it's perhaps advise able to check that if problems might arise. Parking is good behind the inn which iis easy to find on the village Main Street. Cosy bar and a cooked breakfast with additional buffet items available.
