Cotswold Visit
Pros:

The room on the ground was very nice but no air con other than a Dyson Fan which was not great.
Also there was a bad smell of drains most of the time so had to open the window on a regular basis.
Breakfast was excellent as were the staff.
Parking in the yard next to the Hotel/Pub was not very good as it was quite small .It was pot luck before 1800 if you got a place as lots of visitors to the town parked here for the model village. I think that they should have reserved places for hotel guests who stay.
Well located for the village and although it is on the main road there was good sound proofing/secondary glazing to stop the noise from the traffic.
Would stay at the New old Inn again when visiting
Although it was high season thought that our stay was a bit overpriced for this type of accommodation.

Cons:

They don't serve meals in the evening on Sunday.

Fantastic staff, room, facilities and breakfast!
Pros:

The pub is centrally located, slightly away from the main high street and the huge numbers of tourists - it therefore felt more relaxed. Staff were all amazing and so was the breakfast. It was served on crisp table linen, china plates with sparkling cutlery all within a beautifully decorated dinning room. Christina greeted us every morning with a warm smile and gave us fantastic service. Our room was amazing too!

Cons:

Nothing!

It was a great location.

Cons:

The rooms were dirty. There were dead bugs everywhere. It was extremely hot when we stayed and they only had one fan to accommodate us after asking for more fans.

Cons:

We stayed on a Sunday night for my wife's birthday but couldn't get a drink at the bar after 9pm, even though we had a lovely stay it would have been nice to have the opportunity to make the evening longer!
