The Stag at Stow

Clean room and good breakfast. Had dinner there and was surprised to see a tip automatically added. Being on the second floor was a challenge as there isn’t a lift.

The staff were very helpful and understanding . Unfortunately the entire village of Stow-on-theWold was without water. So the room and dinner reservations were cancelled at check in

Can’t wait to come back. Beautiful hotel right on the town square. Really warm, friendly welcome when we arrived. Had checked in online before we arrived so were given our keys and shown to our room. Room was on the small side (we stayed in Fawn) but really not a problem as we were out all day. Great bathroom and shower, tea and coffee making gear in the room and fresh water and milk in fridges around the hotel so just help yourself and so much better than cartons of UHT! Continental breakfast was included and there was loads of choice, cooked alternatives available to order all freshly made. Everything is within walking distance, some amazing restaurants nearby. Was actually disappointed we didn’t eat in the restaurant as the menu looked fab, again with loads of choices to suit everyone. Stow is so pretty, loads of tea rooms, pubs and shops to wander around. We visited Bourton and Burford, both within a 10-15 minute drive so it’s a great base for exploring. Sad to leave and we’ll definitely be back. Can’t fault the hotel or staff, nothing was too much trouble for them.
