The Lamb Inn

Beautiful cosy, warm room. Very comfortable bed with fabulous linen. Lovely spotlessly clean bathroom with nice shower gels etc Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was exceptional! Next to all amenities in Burford. We will definitely visit again…..loved it!

Strongly recommend this beautiful old Cotswold inn. Wr were welcomed very warmly and were all impressed by excellent meals in a truly historic setting. Beautiful log fires and armchairs and authentic hospitality. Most of all we will remember the simply exceptional friendliness and outstanding service of the whole teal led so ably by Jessica.

Room lovely, bathroom spotless, excellent shower, dinner fantastic, surroundings v old English, lots fireplaces, (with fires!), great ambience, helpful staff. Breakfast OK, not up to the standard of everything else. Pricey but FAB!!

We stayed in the Allium Suite for three nights in October for my partners birthday, he is 6'6" so needed a room with a king sized bed and a shower he could fit under. I choose this hotel based on location and prior reviews. We were not disappointed. Our suite was a delight, breakfast was high quality and supper was stunning with a world class wine list. Prior to arrival, I made a special request for our first evening in the restaurant, which was confirmed ahead of time and did not disappoint. We found a convenient parking space each evening right outside the hotel without the need to use their sister hotels parking facility. The Lamb Inn has a beautiful garden and has an old world charm, cozy fires, great service and staff give you a sense of belonging, nothing is too much trouble. We are well travelled people. If something is "off" we call it out. We ate there every night because it was so good! We went to Clarkson's Farm, Clarkson's Pub, Burford Garden Centre (this was incredible on every single level), The Royal Oak Pub (on Whitney Street, they serve Wadsworth Bitter), fantastic barman and great prices. He recommended the Carpenters Arms in Fulbrook. We had a stunning lunch there and beyond fantastic service. We walked to the top of the high Street and took our time walking down the hill, took in the river Windrush by the Priory, which was a delight and took a left after the river to find the Carpenters Arms. We popped into the Burford Museum on the corner of Sheep Street which was really interesting. The countryside is beautiful; the people are sincere, interested and interesting.

Without doubt a beautiful Cotswold stone pub, the bar is brilliant. Unfortunately we were put in the restaurant, which is a bit soulless. We ordered 2 Roast Beef Sunday lunches. It was a bit underwhelming. 2 roast potatoes that were undercooked and very hard, a tiny amount of cauliflower cheese, small amount of cabbage and some rather chewy beef, Yorkshire was overdone. The gravy was the best component, it was delicious. Great building, mediocre roast which took ages to appear. Rather disappointing

Lovely traditional pub going from 1700s with history back to 1400s. We had a very small ground floor room overlooking the central courtyard, but well equipped. Burford is a lovely, if touristy, Cotswold village with its road being very busy at times. We visited in Sep on a wet night, but had the weather been better, the table and chairs in the courtyard just outside our bedroom window (see photo) may have proved an issue with the bar being open until 11pm Evening dinner was good (duo of pork) although service was a bit patchy. Breakfast wasn’t great considering the overnight cost of £220. One sausage, one small mushroom, tomato were all just about warm. Cheap streaky (heavily smoked) bacon. Poor service from very young staff who needed direction. Kept disappearing and made errors in the order. Seemed to like being in the kitchen. Used tables slow to clear. Overall a lovely village to stay in, but this pub/ B&B needs to do better for the prices it charges
