A pub in the Cotswolds is always an experience that takes the best parts of traditional and contemporary hospitality and brings them together with Gloucestershire’s own particular brand of magic. From a 17th century inn on the banks of the River Coln to a converted malthouse and award-winning restaurants-with-rooms.

From a pub that’s been at the heart of the local community since 1781 to an exquisitely stylish coaching inn dating back to the 15th century. Spanning five counties (Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire and Worcestershire), the Cotswolds are perhaps best known for its honey-coloured stone buildings, marvels like Blenheim Palace, and for being an outstanding natural beauty. Hospitality here is about blazing fires and vast stocks of real ales and wines, chocolate box views and lots of little luxuries, such as stylish fabrics, antique furnishings and toiletries. Spend days tucking into superb food and working up an appetite wandering in the tranquil countryside surroundings.
