Fantastic hotel to explore the beautiful Cotswolds
We stayed for 2 nights in a lovely room. We arrived on Sunday and sampled the Sunday lunch - which was so good, so we were looking forward to the breakfsdt the next morning. We was not disappointed - the full Cotswold breakfast was delicious. The breakfast room was such a joy and the gentlemen who was there each morning, made sure our breakfast met our expectations! The Inn for all Seasons is a really gem and we will definitely be returning.

Brilliant gift
Lovely delicious tasty food and very well presented by Kanishka's chef. Also all the staff were friendly and finished the meal with a lovely birthday gift of a walnut cake with a candle and a happy birthday written in chocolate sauce.

Lovely place to stay.
The guest house was very clean and tidy with tasteful decor. The owners Mel and Trish are lovely people. Unfortunately Buyagift took 30% of the worth of the voucher away from the original price which was a voucher for £100. The business owners had to take a £30 payment from us which is poor, especially as the voucher was a gift! I don't think we will use Buyagift again!
