The hosts were very friendly and loved our dogs which was a bonus.
The accommodation and food were excellent and it was money well spent by ourselves.
Loved their friendly dog Bertie and will recommend it to my family and friends.

Lovely old building lots of history. Superb Sunday lunch and excellent fresh cooked breakfasts. Andrew and his team were very pleasant and helpful and the room was nice in a glorious area for walks and some good local pubs and restaurants.

We initially booked one night at this hotel and enjoyed our stay, including dinner and breakfast the next morning, as well as our discussions with the owners so much, that we extended our stay to include a second night. The property has wonderful ambiance and character, both breakfast and dinner were excellent. The owners provided very helpful recommendations as to local towns and villages to visit, which saved us time during our tour of the Cotswolds. We highly recommend staying at this hotel - plus they have a very friendly dog.

Food was amazingly, Sunday roast was the best ive ever had. Owners, Ann and Andrew went above and beyond to make our stay really enjoyable. Ollie and Tess were also amazing. Nothing was to much trouble for any of them. Made you feel so welcome. Really enjoyed our stay and will definately go back again. Good location for exploring the Cotswolds. 10 out of 10 all round. Thank you all for a fantastic stay

A stunning building and courtyard with beautiful decor and the most welcoming staff - including Bertie the Labrador who was so well behaved.
Breakfast was a delight with healthy options as well a good quality full English choice.
Parking is secure to the rear of the building with a charming cut through to the main building.
We stayed for two nights and will definitely return. Thank you all for a lovely stay.

Stunning hotel
We stayed at The Crown for 2 nights whilst we visited sights around the Cotswolds. The hotel is stunning. We stayed in the chapel room which was enormous and breathtaking with high celling, original features and beautiful furniture. Comfy beds and great shower. We ate breakfast and evening meals and the food was delicious again in a beautiful setting of the dining room. The court yard is beautiful and there is plenty of parking space. We would highly recommend this hotel.

We absolutely loved this cozy countryside inn! The property was full of character, room wad super clean and really comfortable. The lounge area was so relaxing and inviting — we ended up sitting there for ages just unwinding. The hosts were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. It had everything we needed after a long day.
Our kids said their happiest moment of the whole trip was staying here — we’ll definitely be back!
Highly recommended for families!

Stay was lovely, bit disappointed we had a sofa bed as description did not list this in a family room. Property was nice as was the room overall, bathroom could do with a bit of TLC.
Room was clean, breakfast was good, staff were friendly bar a woman we met in the hall who questioned why we heading that way when we came out of our room, she was abrupt even when she realised we were guests- bit of a strange encounter.
Location is good and walkable to a decent pub or 2.

Beautiful hotel- log fire, cosy pub and amazing staff. I accidentally lost a very sentimental piece of jewelry down the sink plug hole and the manager very kindly took apart the sink to retrieve it- definitely above and beyond the call of duty! Would definitely recommend.
