Convenient overnight stop

Easy overnight stop on way to Somerset. Easy to find, though parking wasn't that easy. Comfortable bar area and lovely service, all staff encountered were very pleasant and the food was good. Location was convenient for Hartlebury Castle on the way and The Firs (Elgar's birthplace) on the onward trip. Will bear it in mind for future trips.

A great find

We were welcomed into the Inn and a polite and friendly young girl took us to our room. The room was clean and cosy and we were very happy to find we had a fridge in our wardrobe which is unusual. The bed was firm but very comfortable and had a large walk in shower. The only negative was that although the large overhead shower worked well, but as I didn't want to get my hair wet I had to use the smaller shower head which didn't work very well. The breakfasts and evening meals were all excellent.

Modern Room in Country Pub Location

We stayed here as a couple and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Our room had clearly been newly refurbished – stylish, spotless, and thoughtfully finished. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, giving us a great night’s sleep, and the modern bathroom featured a large walk-in shower with excellent water pressure. A lovely touch was finding fresh milk in the fridge for tea and coffee, which made it feel more homely than the usual hotel experience. The accommodation is part of a charming village pub that’s full of character, yet peaceful and welcoming. Breakfast in the morning was a highlight – freshly cooked to order with quality ingredients and generous portions. The staff were friendly and attentive without being intrusive, which added to the relaxed atmosphere. Another bonus is the location – just a short drive from the Edward Elgar Birthplace Museum, which made a perfect outing for us. This place really struck the right balance of comfort, style, and warm hospitality. We’d happily return and would recommend it to anyone looking for a restful break in a lovely part of the countryside.

Calling all travellers! If you’re wanting the English Pub/Inn experience coupled with an awesome beer garden, friendly, knowledgeable staff and access to incredible food & bar service this location is for you. Perfect driving distance to all the Cotswolds have to offer this stay was a standout for us.

Perfect in every way. Would highly recommend this property. Evening meal and breakfast were stunning, staff extremely helpful, room very clean and had everything we needed. Only suggestion was that room layout meant the bed was at 90 degrees to the bed so impossible to watch comfortably. Not enough to make us not stay again though.

Extremely friendly team and the property was very functional and well priced for our needs. We didn’t send too much time there but we enjoyed what we experienced. Breakfast was very nice but choice was limited. If you didn’t have what they wanted you to have there was an extra additional charge. This was a very minor niggle for us so hopefully that emphasises how satisfied we were overall. Would certainly recommend.
