Quirky, old renovated inn. A small number of bedrooms makes the Ragged Cot a great short stay destination. Rooms are not large but more than adequate. Coffee/tea in room. Nice toiletries, crisp cotton sheets. We had Sunday lunch which was excellent. Breakfast included also very good. Good Wi-Fi and lots of on-site free parking. The only small issue that we encountered was that on this occasion we had a ground floor room. Unfortunately, we were disturbed by the guests upstairs moving around.. we have visited on a number of occasions and will return soon.

We have lodged at numerous hotels in the area. The Ragged Cot beats them all…Excellent staff, excellent location, excellent food.(especially the free breakfast).Excellent value. Nice warm room. Safe free parking. Good free WiFi. The restaurant menu is excellent. However, I would recommend that the management consider adding a “lighter bites” menu…The portions on the main menu are large! Well done to all the staff.

Very cosy but modernized historic property! Had its own pub and restaurant serving delicious food and drink, and our hotel room included a cooked to order hot breakfast. It’s in a quiet countryside but with easy access to towns for any needed supplies. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

The hotel is a busy pub with the accommodation down a corridor to the back of the hotel. The room was very small, especially the bathroom and although fairly clean had a cigarette/musty smell. Breakfast was good and staff friendly. We were in the area for a wedding so just needed a place to stay near Minchinhampton, but I wouldn’t stay there again.

We needed accommodation after attending a wedding nearby . We were able to drop by in the morning and collect a key to let ourselves in later on as we were going to arrive late at night after reception closed. The lady who showed us how to let ourselves in was also working in the breakfast room the next morning and was very friendly and efficient. Breakfast was delicious and perfectly cooked and presented. We had a very comfortable night's sleep and a lovely shower with nice thick fluffy towels. Will definitely come back next time to try their lunch menu as the outside gardens looked lovely

I came back at 11 and couldn’t get in . I contacted the hotel and left 5 messages asking for help . The areas around hotel are unlit and after about 30 minutes of blundering around in the darkness I found a way in . The food was good at breakfast but there is only one station for tea and coffee and toast so only one person can attend at a time . If you want just a room for the night it’s fine but don’t go out in the evening as you may not get in or hurt yourself trying to get in .
