Excellent Cotswold Stopover

fresh yogurtwonderful piespolite staffgreat bed
The breakfast was nice. It offered fresh yogurt along with many berries. I liked bread as well. The dinner was really good and the pies are wonderful. Mash potato was almost as good as mine, this is a great compliment. The staff was helpful and polite. I especially appreciated the staff greeting customers always with a smile at the front door and bar. The room was fully stocked with toiletries and refreshments. The bed was great.
The firedoor bedroom doors on the ground floor corridor needed to be quieter when closing. The noise affected several guests at night.
