Lovely location well away from the city life! Recently modernised too but not to the detriment of the olde worlde bar & lounge effect. The open fire should be lovely in the winter. Good dinner and breakfast. Good sized, modern finish room with a comfy bed and decent lighting Good WiFi (needed as the local mobile service is rubbish!) There's a nice rustic feel to the place - just perfect for getting away from it all really - complete with ample parking

Sink and bath drainage needed fixing - partial blockage. Cistern full flush button leaking Kettle didn't switch off and the lid did not open easily. (suggest all issues should have been noticed by housekeeping??) One floor to ceiling window faces the road/pavement so minor privacy issue meant curtain partially closed whole visit... but notwithstanding the above we'd happily go back as these were minor issues.

From start to finish we couldn’t fault anything… starting with a warm friendly welcome to us and the dog, the fires burning away as we walked in from the cold making it so cosy. We stayed in the suite and it definitely didn’t disappoint, everything you could possibly want and need with the most amazing bath and a very comfortable bed. Dinner, breakfast and the service was excellent. Even the dog got a sausage for breakfast which she was happy about! Everywhere was immaculate and smelt so fresh… even the bar toilets! Honestly couldn’t recommend The Harcourt Arms enough, without a doubt one of the best places I have stayed for what we paid, we would pay more than we did because it’s worth every penny so thank you!

Beautifully renovated village pub.

The setting (on the edge of a small village) may not suit someone wanting local shops etc., but if you're wanting to stay someone that has a warm and welcoming ambience, great food and drinks selection and has fantastically finished rooms then The Harcourt Arms will be hard to beat. It actually worked out at £30 less for a 1 night stay with breakfast than the sterile Premier Inn I usually end up in when working in the Oxford Area. Callum was a great host and certainly knows his drinks.

Breakfast doesn't start until 8 am, so that does make it a bit of a rush to eat and get away in time to get into work for 9am.

The place is lovely. The pub and dining areas are cosy and warm. The staff are lovely. The dog was welcomed. We were given a room, Painswick, which was on the first floor but had easy access to a fire escape for dog toileting purposes.

I felt the continental breakfast selection was lacking. I would have liked some cereals other than overnight oats, but that's my personnel preference. We did eat in the restaurant but I don't feel my pasta was value for money and was still hungry after it. However, it was very tasty, if somewhat cool in temperature.

What a find! From the moment we entered the Harcourt Arms everything was perfect. We somehow found an amazing deal on here...not going to mention the price....but it was a steal! We had the suite with a four-poster bed and beautiful copper bathtub. There was also a separate rainfall shower room. Everything was spotlessly clean in the room and the premises generally...housekeeping are doing a great job. Breakfast was included in our rate and was second to none...I had a full English which was delicious and my girlfriend the avocado and poached eggs...both were superb and a great start to the day. The staff were excellent...on arrival we were explained everything very clearly and in a nice friendly manner a d check-out was the same seamless process. We will be back....thank you for a lovely if brief stay. Neil and Vitalija.

The Harcourt Arms is a hidden gem. I have stayed at many hotels and I had low expectations and was worried about booking in a place with a pub. However the Harcourt Arms exceeded my expectations. The room was behind the main building separate with parking right next to my room behind the main building. The room is very spacious, light modern and the decoration is of great taste. The bathroom products are phenomenal, the orange scent of the products made it even more memorable. The WiFi works great, never had any connectivity problems. The restaurant is decoration is impeccable. Great atmosphere to relax with lots of fires ideal for dogs. The breakfast was fantastic, I specially recommend their bircher muesli, it's by far one of the best I tried.

I would've liked carpeted floors.

Cosy internal decor with log burning fire. Breakfast was really good but did not top up orange juice. Im sure they would have if requested but my breakfsst was already going cool after waiting for brown sauce

Rooms were clean and modern but you cannot control the room temperature yourself. It is controlled by the hotel. Recommendation to staff -please put condiments either on tables or by the breakfast bar so that we donot have to wait for it to be brought

This was a wonderful place to stay, combining a beautiful pub with extremely comfortable facilities. Surpassed our expectations. Very clean, charming warm bedroom with very comfortable bed and stylish en suite. Lots of switches for lighting which was a nice touch and plenty of sockets. WiFi worked fine. We ate dinner in the pub which was very good. Breakfast was perfect. And all done with a smile by the staff. Very very happy with our stay. Thank you

Lovely restoration of the building coupled with the modern rooms, made for great atmosphere. Bed was large and comfortable. Room spacious. Plenty of free on site parking. Breakfast was good.

Prices for dinner were a bit steep (careful of the pricing on still tap water). It's a bit out of the way so you need a car. Only real complaint was the shower was blocked and flooded the bathroom. When this was mentioned to staff we were told "It's probably all the dog hair! Say what? That said, they came and rectified the problem with some drain cleaner reasonably promptly, so we had to vacate the room for a bit.
