“This freehouse hotel offers more than just a convenient stay; it's a charming slice of Cotswold life, dating back to 1638, where dogs are as welcome as their owners. The hands-on owners foster an atmosphere where the menu is a highlight and the bar is more than just a place for a drink. I found this place to be more than just accommodation; it's an experience rooted in genuine hospitality.”

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Pettifers Freehouse Hotel is often praised for its convenient location for exploring the Cotswolds and its proximity to attractions like Westonbirt Arboretum, just 15-20 minutes away. Guests frequently mention the comfortable beds and spacious bathrooms in the rooms, with family rooms offering three beds. The on-site restaurant, serving Indian cuisine including a popular salmon sizzler, is a highlight for many, though some have noted that allowing dogs in all areas, including the restaurant, was off-putting. the full cooked breakfast, including options like eggs benedict, receives positive feedback.
