We stayed at the top of the field with friends for 4 nights. Perfect location, beautiful fields in view. The pub attached to the field was lovely. Amazing home cooked steak and on the Sunday we had the carvery. The staff were wonderful. The owner of the pub was so nice and friendly. We just can’t fault this location and the Cotswolds is just stunning.
