My mom and I stayed at Dial House for 2 nights in June. We both loved it so much and felt right at home! The place was so cozy, the Sunday roast was divine, and the staff were welcoming and helpful. We would 100% recommend this place and would love to return someday!

The most beautiful area to stay and amazing food options available. The hotel was very quaint and stylish and the restaurant was fabulous. Staff very friendly and available when needed. My only feedback would be that a fridge in the room would be a great thing to have access to.

Nice property and perfect location. Very good food, though a bit expensive. Owners were very nice. Parking easy and accessible. We would have love to stay in the main house; not on the side appartments. Did no enjoy arriving at 21hs (still daylight) and finding the place dark and closed. We had to phone called to have a person drive to the hotel and check us in while waiting outside. Room was very nice and convenient. Also comfortable, though the smaller room had a smell to it.

There is nothing we didn’t love about this place! Carl and Adam greeted us and helped with luggage. Dinner and drinks were fabulous. The interior is beautiful. Breakfast each morning was delicious. Walking distance for the town. This is my favorite place we stayed on our 2 weeks around the country. Would love to go back.

This is the perfect location to explore Burton-on-the-Water as you are right in the center of town. Check-in was easy and so was parking. The staff are very friendly and the gentleman that makes the drinks has a great sense of humor. Our room was large and the bed was comfortable although the location of our room was very noisy as it is right where all the deliveries occur for the hotel so we could hear vans driving on the gravel and opening doors during the night (Room 10). I would stay here again but would request not to be in this room as our friends were upstairs and said it was quiet.

What can we say from booking this hotel to the end of our visit, we have found everyone has been very quick with responses to queries leading up to visiting, on arrival every member of staff has been very friendly and helpful, the location of the hotel is ideal, just set back enough from the busy street. Our room was super (we had the garden room) lots of room and then to finish it off a nice private garden space to sit in (nice weather did help), we had breakfast included in our stay which was lovely, the black pudding was one of the best I’ve had in a long time. We also had a lunch & a dinner- every dish we had was very nicely presented and was very tasty, quality ingredients used. I’d book this hotel for hubby’s 60th & definitely felt he was rather spoilt. Thank you so much for a fabulous stay.

The property is right in the heart of Bourton on the Water. I loved the hotels proximity to the other villages in the North Cotswolds. I stayed in the family room which was 2 bedrooms and one bath, which was great for 2 teenagers and 2 adults, loved the space and privacy. Breakfast was also great. There is onsite parking which was convenient for this popular destination.
