My room was in an annex accessed across the car park, the route was somewhat circuitous along a gravel path to the rear of the building to the entrance, there were other rooms in this annex. My room was on the ground floor, the building felt warm, and I was very impressed with the standard of furnishings, especially high quality blinds and door curtain, coffee and tea, and kettle provided, also TV which was challenging to use! The bathroom had an excellent variety of bath and handwash products, also kleenex tissues. Towels were luxurious. I felt very happy with the accommodation, there was access in better weather to an outside table and chairs. The only problem was that once the blinds were open, you would be in view of others using the footpath. There was a grassy area with plenty of tables and chairs. The inn had a wonderful atmosphere, very casual, log fire, very characterful. Very welcoming staff, especially the waitress/housekeeper, very friendly. A cooked breakfast was on offer. In summary for me travelling alone, the Colesbourne Inn had just the right blend. I assume there was accommodation in the main building also, I stayed just one night, and really enjoyed my time there and would definitely consider staying again, maybe next year as I visit the snowdrops in various locations. Good location for Cirencester and Cheltenham and plentiful snowdrops to see in the area, just go on line for details

Quick stopover en route to Herefordshire - our 5th stay on & off over past few years & never disappoints. Fire always lit in winter, good food & comfortable inviting rooms. Yes, there are a few jaded bits of paintwork & not pristine anymore but perfectly suitable for a nights stay with all the comforts you need. Will be back probably later in the year for a race day. Thanks

Another good evening.

Stayed here with friends many times, always a warm welcome and a great place to spend an evening/overnight. Beer is good, real fire is great, comfortable well appointed rooms, good food and wine and staff are always accommodating. Splendid breakfast as well! Will return again soon!

Small uncomfortable bed and lumpy pillows No hairdryer and when I asked for one I was told they’d run out as they keep blowing up! Nice cooked breakfast but more fruit and yoghurt please!

Rather average

The Colesbourne Inn is located on a very busy main road although it quietened down around 9pm so my sleep was not disturbed by the sound of constant traffic. I received a warm welcome from the young Assistant Manager who pointed me in the direction of my room for the night – back outside and last door of the small accommodation block. Quite a pleasant room although the quality of housekeeping could be better (a constant complaint of mine). On a positive note, the room had a folding rack for my case. I get so annoyed with hotels where there is no facility to open your case except on the bed or desk. The bathroom had a bath with a shower which worked well unlike the tv that could only receive BBC1 & 2. My evening meal was ok: typical mid-range pub fayre. Nothing freshly prepared and little in the way of healthy options. Breakfast was disappointing compared with most hotels I normally stay in. To answer to big question of ‘would I stay at the Colesbourne Inn again?’ I think it would be unlikely.

Beautiful couple of nights in a lovely, cosy Inn. We stayed here 7 years ago and really enjoyed returning and will no doubt stay again some time.

This is a quaint little place with only a few rooms which are tastefully decorated. The room is warm and comfortable with tea/coffee making facilities and fresh water. Parking is available and free. I had dinner at the pub and it was tasty (expect to pay £25-30 pp.). Breakfast is include and cooked to order (takes a bit of time). My only issue is with the unreliable wifi which impacted me in a negative way because I was on a work trip. Otherwise this is a nice place to stay.

Perfect location for our two day trip. Great accommodation in a wonderful English country pub. Our superior double room located separately from the main building was ideal and very quiet. Highly recommended especially the staff.

We appreciated the historical feel of the Inn. There could be attention paid to cob webs and spider on the ceiling in the bathroom and perhaps some areas may need a paint touch up. Otherwise we enjoyed the accommodation.

We had a great stay for 4 nights. Used the Colesbourne Inn as our base to explore the Cotswolds. It was in a central location. The rooms were big with modern bathroom and plenty of storage space. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellent.
