This place was just charming and perfect for our first stop in the UK. I do recommend changing out the beds. Mine was uncomfortable although I slept quite well given the jet lag.

Great home base to visit the Cotswalds. Very clean, comfortable and spacious room above the really cool pub. Staff was excellent as well. Free parking too. Th e only issue was that the pub got loud on Friday night. It really didn’t bother us but I could see some early birds getting a bit annoyed. Otherwise great place and a great value
