We enjoyed our stay very much. We did have an issue with the water in room Harrington but the staff were very quick to move us to another room for our 2nd night. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food is good too.

Comfy bed!

The hotel was absolutely wonderful! A perfect stop along our Cotswolds journey! The staff was super friendly when we checked in and was sure to let us know of timings for food and drinks! We had supper there which was a little above average. Perfect for an easy night. The patio out back was beautiful too! The bed was SUPER comfortable which made for a great night sleep!

Excellent team who made us feel very welcome. Great dinner and breakfast (normally stressful for a dairy-free and gluten-free person). Excellent service, which was quick but not intrusive and very well informed. A lovely pub in a great location with a superb team working there. Thank you

Convenient for M4, great food and drink.

Very friendly welcome by the landlord. Lovely rooms and surprisingly quiet given that they are above the bar & restaurant. Also, surprisingly quiet given that they are on an A road. Really nice bar and restaurant - food is amazing! Very convenient for the M4 - I had a 9.30am meeting in North Bristol, left and 8.45 and got there easilly.

Great few days …..

First class service provided by management and staff, nothing too much and they clearly enjoy what they do. Restaurant of a good standard, breakfast offer should be reviewed, needs to be more ‘homely’ in keeping with the premises e.g. get some back bacon and grill it. Great place to spend a couple of days but rooms need refurbishment
