    Relaxing romantic stay in the Costwolds

    Staff and service was excellent. We got a flat tire one night and they were able to assist us with booking AA the next morning. The property was gorgeous and tucked away in a quiet town. The room was spacious, warm, and clean. We were able to drive to our room to drop off/pick up our heavy luggage. Breakfast was delicious and they served generous portions. We enjoyed our walk around the property and the garden tour.

    Because of the public access laws in the UK, random people come through the fields on the property with off leash dogs that they don’t clean up after and one who I narrowly escaped from (thanks to a side gate) when it tried to attack my service dog. This isn’t a discredit to the hotel, which is fabulous. Unfortunately they are saddled with having to allow everyone through the main fields on property, and I’m sure that’s more of a pain for them than it was for me but it was scary to have to run away from a large, aggressive dog whose owner wasn’t even staying at the hotel, especially given how much it cost us to stay there ourselves.

    The food is beyond fabulous!! Our room was very comfortable, spacious and well done, great shower and bath. The baa bar lounge is lovely, the property is so beautiful and everyone who worked at the restaurants/ bar were so kind and attentive.

    A little too many stuffed sheep and rams around... the wall paper was a bit overkill in the bedrooms everywhere. Service from the younger waiting staff in the restaurant was passable - the older members of the team made up for them though.

    The estate is modelled to perfection, tastefully designed and furnished with mostly excellent service. Rooms were balanced in design and lighting, it was a truly lovely space to be in.

    Fanastic stay in the countryside, 2h from London

    It's not cheap but you're paying for stay and experience vs the actual room you're staying in. Soundproofing in the room is not good (we stayed in a room in the Lodge cottage) so you end up hearing people coming and going. Hopefully not a log of guestes, and certainly all very respectful ones.

    Fantastic stay in the Cotwolds - the estate is simply gorgeous with lots to explore around. Long walks surrounded by nature, fresh air and animals grazing while coming back to a warm fireplace, board games, seasonal drinks and snacks. The property is so well decorated and maintained, I am sure a lot of work goes into each detail and it's worth it.

    The Baa Bar wasn’t always staffed which was slightly frustrating for guests.

    Fantastic few nights away as a couple and we received a room upgrade which was a real treat. Everything about Thyme is done perfectly and the staff are wonderful. The dinners in the Ox Barn were superb and the Baa Bar was quirky and a comfortable social space. We had the most amazing massages in the Spa so that it highly recommended too.

    Beautiful hotel in the picturesque Cotswolds. Room was lovely and bed was super comfortable. Loved the extra touches of homemade snacks in the room, negronis and hot water bottle at night. Restaurant was also great and staff were very helpful.

    Baa Bar was not open, but that was possibly linked to universal staffing problems post coved.

    Food was great especially breakfast. The staff were helpful and friendly and we particularly have praise for Tim who was helpful, friendly and informative. (My wife wanted to bring him home!)
