    There was mothing we disliked.

    The staff were very welcoming and friendly. The location was beautiful, it was a shame we didn't have more time to explore the area further but hopefully we will be back again. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom facilities were good. The plug on the basin needs the chain attached again as it made it almost impossible to remove it!

    Room 4 is very hot as it is above the kitchen but if you open the widnow you are just above the extractor fan, so it's either too noisy or too hot.

    Great staff, lovely food, tastefully decorated and comfortable. Just lovely!

    The only downside was the hot water seemed to run out quite quickly.

    This was a lovely stay. The room was a really good size and clean and tidy. The food in the pub was great and the team were lovely.

    Maybe a small fridge? (Not a deal breaker.)

    The locations, the atmosphere, the food was top class, the family suite was the best I’ve ever stayed in especially with a dog. Spotless accommodation.

    Beautiful inn in a Cotswolds village
    • Leisure trip

    • Double Ensuite With Shower
    • Stayed 1 night

    We stayed in an old building, and unfortunately sound isolation wasn't the best. Our neighbours had a room upstairs and we heard every footstep and every word. But they went to sleep early so at the end it wasn't too big of a deal, but I definitely recommend bringing some earplugs.

    It's a classic inn with a beautiful pub and beer garden attached to it, we absolutely loved the atmosphere. The buildings are made out of beautiful stone, the room was very nice and comfy, we had good wifi, great food. We definitely had a lovely time.

    The little window on the door needs a blind or suffer as the sun shines through first thing in the morning straight into the bed

    We stopped in the Cobb room ,which was located down the side of the property, with its own entrance. That was great for us as we took our 2 little dogs The room was perfect good bathroom and a bonus little room where the dogs slept

    We loved everything about the Inn, located in a beautiful village, nearby Oxford and the Cotswold villages we wanted to visit. We had a lovely, cosy 'cottage' for our family, with private entrance, in the 'beer garden', actually a very nice terrace to the animated pub. Staff was friendly and accommodating, also toward you children. We had a very agreeable mini-break!

    the bathroom / wet room felt a little impractical as the entire floor got soaked headboard was a bit tired looking the interconnecting door to the next room meant we could hear every sound from the people next door to us.

    staff were excellent. breakfast was lovely. the atmosphere in general was very pleasant. bathroom products lovely. really nice towels and bed sheets

    Wish we could have stayed longer!

    The Swan Inn is a beautiful Cotswolds pub with rooms. We stayed in the family room which was a duplex with 2 bedrooms upstairs. The rooms were cosy and we loved the bath tub with a window above so you could look up at the sky. We had a fantastic dinner in the pub by the fireplace and a lovely breakfast again by the fireplace.

    It was our second stay at this Inn. Every room is different and we loved both our rooms. This room was very spacious, with a big, comfy bed and a bathtub. It was bright and friendly and tastfully decorated. Staff was friendly and food (dinner and breakfast) was delicious. Breakfast was simple and continental, but that was ok for us.

    Can't think of anything....

    Everything! This was a last-minute decision to take a rest on a long journey. Pretty much our ideal stay. Excellent service, room, food, and great beer. Stayed in the top attic room, old beams, huge bath, blackbird in the morning outside the window. Beautiful old Inn, tastefully restored. We will be back.

    • Deluxe Double Room with Bath
    • Stayed 1 night

    It was not made clear on the booking that the included breakfast was continental only and that a further charge was payable for a cooked option. The cooked option is quite expensive. The venue allows dogs within the breakfast room. Its not particularly pleasant trying to enjoy breakfast with a strong dog aroma and yapping. Although the area is quiet there is limited parking so cars need to be parked on the road overnight. Comfortable room (No 6) but no separation between the bath and bedroom.

    Friendly and helpful staff. Pizza and risotto both very good and food generally is of a very good standard.
