The new name signifies the start of a new, exciting chapter. Whilst the new owners, Butcombe Brewery, will ensure it remains a ‘proper pub’ for locals, it has many new features that make it a destination for visitors from across the UK.

The pub boasts 16 guest rooms with ensuite bathrooms that have been transformed with beautiful, decorative panelled walls, tasteful historic and equestrian-themed art, and are lit by dramatic chandeliers and statement wall or pendant fittings.

A new, purpose-built bar is very country-esq with its wood panelled bar front, copper gantry’s and tiled back bar. It sits next to the new snug which has all the classic elements of a cosy nook - a wood burner, extra-large and cosy chesterfield sofas and comfortable armchairs. For maximum cosiness and to add to the rustic feel; rugs, paint finishes in warm colours and reinstating original beams all come together to create a warm and inviting space.

Adjacent to the snug is the reconfigured reception complemented with an original piano and shutters which close off the area when not in use. Even the bathrooms have dramatically changed with wallpapers, mirrors, feature tiles, panelling and decorative lighting.

Outside, visitors can expect to see a covered pergola and large decked area. This classic pub is complete with a wonderful new brand identity seen on its classic swing sign and signage package.

This 18th-century coaching inn combines Cotswolds country house tradition with boutique hotel touches and delicious food...

Behind its stone façade, a major makeover has delivered Cotswolds country house trappings with a dash of boutique-hotel cool; many convincing fake plants large and small, church-window mirrors, white clapboard walls, Arts and Crafts-style wallpaper and crimson banquettes.
