The room was small but spotless! The breakfast however was disgusting! Waited more than 1/2 hr ! Bacon was like cardboard ! Sausage tasted awful , one bite and should have spat it out but swollowed . Poached eggs 1 ok 1 hard! Enormous amount of muchrooms. Butter for toast when opened was liquid !! Definitely would not recommend! - refund would be appreciated. Felt sick all morning. Husbands wasn’t any better - he had the full English.

We had a really lovely stay in one of the rooms above the pub. The location was very convenient for exploring the Cotswolds, and the pub itself had a nice atmosphere – great for a drink or dinner in the evening. There is no car park and only on-street parking. When we arrived around dinner time there was nowhere to park, although the road cleared later and we were able to park outside overnight. The room was comfortable overall, with a very comfy bed. However, it was disappointing that the room didn’t have the exposed beams or Cotswold stone that were advertised, which was one of the main reasons we booked. The bathroom was small but fine, although there was some discoloured mastic on the floor which was a bit off-putting. One bedside light was broken, and the other couldn’t be turned off without the main light being on. There were also several hairs left in the bathroom and shower on arrival. Check-in felt a bit rushed and unclear. We were shown to the room but weren’t given any information about checkout time, WiFi, breakfast, or what time the doors would be locked overnight. The staff member showing us to the room seemed quite stressed. On checkout, we weren’t asked how our stay was or given an opportunity to leave feedback. Overall, it’s a fine place to stay for a Cotswolds trip, but there’s room for improvement in customer service, cleanliness, and some maintenance. It would also have been much better if the room had matched the description when booking.

Everything. The staff are so friendly, the room clean and comfortable. Great breakfast cooked to order and evening meals we had were delicious. It’s a cosy little oldie worldly pub with 2 open fires, was nice and quiet when we went with a few locals in of an evening. Owner very helpful. Would recommend 👍

Wonderful stay! Very comfortable bed, cozy room and hot shower. We so enjoyed our stay, the morning breakfast is delicious. We had dinner one evening and enjoyed a set menu. As a celiac, I was pleasantly surprised that the majority of the menu was gluten free. We would definitely stay here again!

Had a great night’s stay. The room was spotlessly clean thanks to Tina’s hard work. And breakfast was delicious. Very impressed with the selection and the hot choices from the menu. Kate who was on breakfast service was great and recommended a lovely walk before I headed off.

A must!

This is a brilliant place to stay. Lovely ancient pub, very cosy. Food is delicious ! The waitresses are adorable and can't do enough for you. Our room was spacious with a good mattress. A bonus in the bathroom: ginger-scented toiletries! Only downside: deliveries at 6am, just under our window...

The Masons Arms is a delightful country pub with rooms that is a charming example of Cotswold tradition and tastefully updated rooms. The pub itself serves very good and reasonably priced traditional pub food in a traditional and quaint setting. Service is friendly and efficient. The inclusive traditional Full English Breakfast was generous and spot on. We would certainly return. A special mention of Kate who was very helpful and friendly.
