What guests think
At The Swan Inn, travellers describe a warmly run country pub-hotel with stylish, comfortable rooms in a quiet Cotswolds setting that feels relaxed and welcoming for short getaways, couples, and dog owners.
Reviews frequently praise the genuinely friendly, attentive service alongside attractive interiors and gardens. Common downsides include noise from other rooms or the kitchen, very warm top-floor rooms in hot weather, and some rooms offering only baths or showing minor wear. Food is widely enjoyed at dinner and breakfast, though full cooked options may cost extra and parking can be limited. Expect a charming rural inn stay with character and a few practical trade-offs.

We booked a one night stay in the signature room. The room was beautifully designed and presented with a fabulous en suite having a separate large shower and bath. We had dinner in the beer garden which had a relaxed atmosphere and lovely furniture. Food was restaurant quality and all staff were friendly and professional. We easily parked for free on the quiet road outside as the swan car park was full. Nothing to dislike about this place, would highly recommend.

Great location, limited car parking, lovely looking exterior and tasteful interior decor. Excellent service, friendly and helpful staff, well proportioned room with good facilities. Good selection of beers and wines, although found the wine list extremely pricey (£32 is the cheapest bottle). The evening meal, again a bit pricey, was very very good. The continental breakfast was also very good. We had the room with the bathtub but unfortunately didn’t have a shower. Overall a very good stay and would recommend.

Room was spotless, and the whole place was beautifully decorated. Comfy bed and nice products in the bathroom. Breakfast was delicious, the free continental selection a nice touch - Marta looked after us well. Room could benefit from a wardrobe or even some hangers; description said robes in the room, this wasn’t the case; our room could have also benefited from better soundproofing from upstairs & next door.

We stayed here less than 12 months ago and it was lovely, which prompted us to book again, but it appears to have deteriorated very quickly. The room was really quite poor; wallpaper peeling, repairs to the toilet door not repainted, stains on both sides of the headboard, a ripped bedsheet and the bath leaked. We must have been directly over the kitchen due to the constant fan noise. The staff were pleasant though, but probably not one to revisit.

I loved this hotel. The room was beautiful and very comfortable and I slept well and felt welcome. Breakfast and dinner were also outstanding. The room felt immaculately clean. My only tiny issue is that the stand alone bath is the only bath/shower, and with no shower curtain, the water was going everywhere. The bath is also in the bedroom so you'd better be comfortable with whoever you are sharing with, if anyone! I loved my stay here and thought it was outstanding value for money. Would love to come back again!

This is a great pub with v good food and stunning gardens to sit in the sun BUT do not stay in Room 6 (has bathtub) it’s top of the pub and like a furnace. Only one small window opens and all heat from pub gets trapped in the stairwell and into the room. Staff put a fan in there made no difference - even gave us bucket of ice but still horrifically hot - it NEEDS an aircon unit.

Really enjoyed our 1 night stay- lovely room, toiletries, great breakfast, staff were friendly and the outdoor area was lovely in the sun. However we were surprised that the hotel/ pub closed up at 11pm on a Saturday evening so when we got back from dinner we found ourselves locked out. Turns out we hadn’t been given a side door key on arrival. All was resolved but was a little surprised! We also found the rooms to have very very thin walls and floors.. so we were woken up by other guests very early

Very pretty property. Staff were very friendly and helpful but unfortunately there just wasn't enough of them and therefore service was slow both at dinner and breakfast. The room was lovely but up in the roof with no air-conditioning or windows that opened, it was sweltering beyond belief on a hot day. They brought 4 fans in an attempt to make it bearable to sleep in. Staff were very helpful but room not really habitable in very hot weather...

A weekend break for myself, my wife, daughter and her fiancé. Lovely traditional bar and restaurant. Service from entire staff was second to none. Having a bath and no shower wasn’t ideal. Overall very happy with our stay, my only gripe would be considering what the weekend cost us, not having a full breakfast in the price was a little mean.

The remodel of this Old English Pub leaves much to be desired. There is little to no parking. But most importantly the staff are not friendly. Although breakfast is allegedly included, I was charged about $10 USD for coffee. For the price, I would expect a little more hospitality, especially for a spot in the Cotswolds. For me, the experience of staying at a Pub vs a hotel with much more amenities is the opportunity to interact with the folks managing the Inn. Sadly, this Swan Inn needs a lot of work to become more hospitable for guests.

We did have an issue with the bill whereby the full amount we had pre-paid was not deducted from our total but this was resolved.

The property is in a quiet location. The room was tastefully decorated, with a very comfortable bed and an excellent bathroom. Service was brilliant, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious.

Staff were friendly, place was clean. Only issue i could say was when booking it started i had breakfast, but when having breakfast only Continental was option for room rate.

The remodel of this Old English Pub leaves much to be desired. There is little to no parking. But most importantly the staff are not friendly. Although breakfast is allegedly included, I was charged about $10 USD for coffee. For the price, I would expect a little more hospitality, especially for a spot in the Cotswolds. For me, the experience of staying at a Pub vs a hotel with much more amenities is the opportunity to interact with the folks managing the Inn. Sadly, this Swan Inn needs a lot of work to become more hospitable for guests.

Very comfortable room with en-suite and small kitchen area. Excellent dinner in the lovely pub itself - staff were polite and friendly (especially Maggie). Hard to find any fault at all. Make sure to wander across to the local church and the tree lined avenue

A lovely couple of days stay. Our room was upgraded which was very comfortable. Staff very helpful, friendly and accommodating. Only downside was our meal on the first night. We ordered steak which really wasn’t up to scratch for the price we paid. We did however really enjoy the sourdough pizzas the following night. The continental breakfast which was included was an added bonus too. The only other thing I would say is the room could do with a full length mirror or a mirror at least in the bedroom area.

Really pleasant one night stay. Really enjoyed the quiet beer garden after a long journey, and the vegetarian full breakfast was delicious.

A weekend break for myself, my wife, daughter and her fiancé. Lovely traditional bar and restaurant. Service from entire staff was second to none. Having a bath and no shower wasn’t ideal. Overall very happy with our stay, my only gripe would be considering what the weekend cost us, not having a full breakfast in the price was a little mean.

We only stayed for one night but had a great time. The evening meal was both excellent and good value for money. The breakfast included in the room price was also good. Would highly recommend the Swan.

Great location, limited car parking, lovely looking exterior and tasteful interior decor. Excellent service, friendly and helpful staff, well proportioned room with good facilities. Good selection of beers and wines, although found the wine list extremely pricey (£32 is the cheapest bottle). The evening meal, again a bit pricey, was very very good. The continental breakfast was also very good. We had the room with the bathtub but unfortunately didn’t have a shower. Overall a very good stay and would recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely inn. We stayed in the family room, which worked well for our family of four. One thing to note is that the shared bathroom is in between the two bedrooms so it does not offer complete privacy for bathing and you might need to send others downstairs to bathe. We enjoyed both breakfast and dinner at the Inn. The staff were wonderful—particularly the manager. The only negative is that the fabrics on the sofas in the family room could stand to be deep cleaned or replaced, but this did not affect our overall enjoyment of the property.

Lovely Cotswolds inn. Nice decor, quiet location and gorgeous garden for food and drinks. Great menu, friendly chef and nice staff. Breakfast is continental, but served to the table - we recommend having a little of everything! Comfortable bed and nice toiletries.
