Perfect base for a tour of the Cotswolds.
Great place to stay. The accommodation is full of character, the staff are really friendly and welcoming, good food and the town is really nice. Excellent little coffe shop opposite. Give it a try.

Stayed in this lovely accommodation for a couple of nights with our 3 year old son. Our family room was spacious, clean, tidy and comfortable. Just a tiny issue with the size of our bed only because of my partner being 6'2", maybe it's just something that the inn can consider looking at. The area was really good in terms of shops if you need some basic supplies, café and some good options for food. Not too far to drive to other villages in Cotswolds and nearby areas. Our breakfast here at The Old Crown Coaching Inn was brilliant. We all enjoyed the quality of the food. The staff were lovely and friendly. Will definitely recommend this place..

Great place, shame about the staff
A great property with a great owner/manager. One of the best places we stayed at during a 15 night road trip. We also had the added bonus of arriving on Folly Festival day and enjoying the courtyard DJs. We had an excellent evening amongst the locals. Rather sadly though, the owner was let down by his young bar staff who couldn’t care less or find it in them to offer meaningful assistance when we arrived to find roads closed and no parking. Having seemingly been blamed for not knowing and been spoken to as though we knew the area, it was left to us to find somewhere before we paid to park and lugged our baggage across town in 30 degrees heat. The two barmaids do not seem to have accepted the validity of our disappointment because later that evening in the bar we were pointedly made to wait to be served as they continued their conversations and then when we were served we were overcharged. £5:50 for a pint is acceptable, but £7 for half pint of apple juice straight out the carton? Really? Feeling unwelcome we avoided the bar for the rest of the evening rather than expose ourselves to the rest of their repertoire.
