    The cozy double room had a uniquely inviting charm, perfect for unwinding after a long day. Enjoyed the scenic outdoor dining for meals that offered quality local fare.

    Navigating the narrow country lanes to get there can be a headache, especially in the dark or during heavy rain. Limited parking spaces were a hassle. The inconsistent breakfast service had us confused about what to expect, as on one morning we received the wrong orders. Noise from the bar can seep into the rooms on busy nights, so light sleepers might want to keep that in mind. Lastly, the presence of a few cobwebs indicated that cleaning could use a bit more attention.

    charming atmosphere
    impressive breakfast
    limited parking

    This quaint inn nestled in a peaceful village offers a wonderful atmosphere. The bedroom was beautifully appointed with cozy furnishings, perfect for relaxation after a long day of exploring. Breakfast exceeded expectations with a great selection, including a delicious full English and freshly baked pastries. The staff were very welcoming and even treated my dog to an extra sausage, making our stay feel personal and enjoyable. I faced some inconvenience with parking due to its limited availability, which made arrival a bit tricky. On the second night, the room was not cleaned, but fresh towels were promptly provided upon request. There were also no evening dining options available as the kitchen closed early on Monday and Tuesday, which was not communicated in advance. These oversights marred an otherwise lovely experience, but I appreciated the charm and cleanliness of the inn.

    lovely stay but some details need attention

    The garden view from my room was a true highlight, providing a serene atmosphere to unwind. The staff were incredibly attentive and went out of their way to ensure I felt welcome throughout my stay. The beer garden was beautifully kept, offering unique seating options that added charm to my evening.

    Parking can be quite tricky, especially during busy times.

    delicious dinner
    hearty breakfast
    missing shower

    We had a fantastic two-night stay with amazing dinner experiences. the food was some of the best we've had! Breakfast was just as delightful, setting us up perfectly for our hikes. Just a heads up, the room varies a bit from the photos. while cozy, it lacked the promised shower, but the charm made up for it.

    charming atmosphere
    friendly staff

    narrow lanes
    evening dining options

    Charming atmosphere with friendly staff who ensured we felt welcome throughout our stay. The delicious homemade marmalade served at breakfast was a delightful touch, and the cozy room provided a snug retreat after a day of exploring. navigating the narrow country lanes was challenging, especially at night, and parking availability was limited. the lack of evening dining options left us seeking alternatives nearby on weekdays.

    good meal options
    difficult parking

    Our stay was fantastic! We enjoyed the nearby Kelmscott Manor and loved the good meal options. The cozy room and friendly vibe made our family getaway nice, especially for our little one. Those squishy carpets were a treat after a day out!

    For dads, it would be great if parking was easier.

    great atmosphere

    plough inn is an absolute gem! the atmosphere is enchanting, and the standard double room was super cozy. the staff are so friendly and welcoming, ensuring you feel right at home. being just 24 km from the steam museum of the great western railways makes this place even better for exploring the cotswolds.

    great location
    powerful shower
    delicious breakfast
    limited parking
    early kitchen closing

    the shower was super hot and powerful, breakfast had a great selection at a good price, and the location was perfect for my needs. I also really loved how the staff communicated updates and their offers for restaurant bookings.

    but there were some issues as the parking was tricky and the evening kitchen closed earlier than expected.
