This is such a beautiful B&B. Bridget is an excellent host and made us feel very welcome. The room had everything we could need and a very comfy bed! Had such a good night sleep with no noise from outside and big thick curtains blocking out the light. Everywhere was very clean and to a high standard. Breakfast options in the morning were great and the full English was delicious. Can’t recommend enough! Thank you for such an enjoyable stay ☺️

WOW! We have just returned from an amazing weekend at The Old Kiln House, which is a superb high quality B&B, situated ideally for visiting the Cotswolds. It is beautifullyfurnished to a very high quality. Our host Bridget was very welcoming and friendly. Her breakfasts were beautiful made from locally sourced produce and also included homemade bread and jam, which were beautiful. Bridget has also got a wonderful knowledge of the area and is happy to make suggestions on where to visit or where to eat. All in all, we had an amazing first visit to the beautiful Cotswolds, which we thank you for. We look forward to returning again soon.
