Find the Best Cotswold District Hotels

Health and safety hazard. Very dirty with thick dust on top of velvet headboard…Urgh. Stayed for two nights. Both curtains hanging down on one side. Started to position curtain around the window to stop the light coming in and pricked my thumb harshly on one of the several large heavy duty staples sticking through the curtain fabric presumably where the pleat should have been. In the morning I noticed a small tear in my pillowcase. When I turned the pillow over there was a rip in fabric almost the whole width of the dirty pillow. I had a quiet word with the morning receptionist on our way out for the day who said she would inform management (I did not want to embarrass her in front of other guests)…although this was the same lady on reception when we arrived the previous day and who I took to be the owner/manager! On our return, whilst the bed had been made up and the pillowcase changed, the staples were still sticking through the fabric which is when I noticed the heavy dust on top of the headboard. On the second night the room was very noisy as if a fan was running all night (yes, I did turn the bathroom light off) and for the second night I hardly got any sleep! Very, very disappointed that firstly this room (41) was in such a poor state for the amount of money paid per night and secondly that my concerns seemed to have been almost totally disregarded. When checking out of the hotel, despite a lady in the office behind reception, nobody came to the front so I just left the key on the desk. I have taken numerous photos which show the disgusting state of the room in general if management care to see. This is a 3 star hotel which I am afraid would be hard pushed in reality to hold onto a 1 star and I hope the AA review their star system in the future before the whole system becomes meaningless!

This hotel is the only hotel in town, so the tourist season is very hot and the price is not cheap. However, in fact, in addition to the Arlington row room suitable for taking pictures, there is nothing to look at here. It may also be a few days ago comparing the hotels of Strauss and Chipping Campden. It feels like the Swan Hotel is more like the American country hotel, no matter the decoration of the house or the restaurant. Good service, breakfast is buffet + order, rich. Opposite the hotel is a trout farm that can feed fish and feed geese, as well as fishing and barbecue, suitable for bringing children to this pastime. It is also 15 km away from attractions such as Burton, Bird Park and Model Village.

We stayed at the Wheatsheaf for 2 nights for our wedding nearby. We hired the private dining room for a family dinner the night before the wedding. The food was delicious & service was great. The rooms are full of character & lots of special touches like the Dyson hairdryers & treats. The staff were so helpful & friendly. Would definitely recommend it. I’d love to go back in the summer to make the most of the beautiful garden area.

We arrived early in the morning, in the hope we could leave our cases while going to explore! We were welcomed straight away when we walked through the door with a big smile! We instantly felt relaxed. The attention to detail doesn't not go unnoticed from the decor inside and outside to customer care. The staff are a total asset, They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and enjoy our stay. Breakfast had a fab selection of cold or hot options and was delicious 😋 . Dinner at the Crown was divine. (Did not want to share the apple crumble with my partner🤣) Our room had the same cosy wow factor as the rest of the hotel. Little touches like having the pantry and getting fresh milk delivered every morning, all add to charm of Wild Thyme and Honey. Thank you for such a lovely stay. We hope to visit again. Would recommend this hotel to anybody. We stayed in room 23, Watermill!
