The atmosphere and ambience was wonderful in this historic old inn and staff were very friendly. The pub was gret but no food is available because they are no longer running the restaurant. Conveniently located for touring the Cotswolds and Stratford on Avon by car Biggest issie is very poor wifi in rooms except on phones, ipad connectons dropped off as soon as you leave the main pub area

Friday night at the Mary Arden Inn

A lovely village pub with ample parking. Flag stone floors in the main bar and plenty of seating front and back gardens. Only a couple of letdowns were the shower didn't work (slight dribble) but amazing water pressure in the bath made it a bit difficult for someone used to shower-this would be a simple fix. The room was spacious and clean and clearly some effort has been made to spruce up by the new owners. This would be a fantastic destination pub if food was available and could possibly turn the future of this vital village asset into a blooming business. and we really wish them luck.

Nice village, close to Stratford

Admittedly the cellar was flooded but it was also very tired, no shower curtain or fitting for head or toilet roll for example. Due to flooding (from storm) there was no bar/food or coffee area. It is handy for Stratford and Landlord was a lovely guy

My stay was ok. Took over an hour to check in when it didn't appear the pub overly busy. They did provide a complimentary drink at the bar for the inconvenience, so that was good. The room was dated, but clean. The mattress was very firm and squeaky, but on the whole the room was ok. If you are looking for a cheap and cheerful stop off near Stratford then this would be an option.

Made a booking to stay overnight, as I was working late and did not want to travel home. Received confirmation of booking and travelled to location, to be told that there were no rooms available! Ended up paying twice as much trying to find alternative accommodation at 9.30pm. Not happy.

Mary Arden Inn

The first thing you must remember is this is an INN not a hotel. On arrival we were greeted at the reception desk and everything was explained re Dinner Breakfast etc. We were shown to our room (Merchant of Venice) which was very spacious and warm. If anything a little too warm even though the heating was not on. Found out later we were above the kitchen. The room was clean, the bed comfortable although you couldn’t lay on the bed and view tv as it was on a stand too low down. Bathroom was okay although not the bathroom we thought we were going to get as in the pictures of the room I’d booked it had a jet spa bath. This one had a standard bath with shower. Shower was okay. Breakfast was cooked to order and there was plenty of choice of cereals and teas. Overall score 3.75/5
