The service was excellent, and the ambiance--both stylish and inviting--felt like a hidden gem. We had the gnocchi, Sunday roast, drinks, and panna cotta--everything was delicious. The panna cotta was a bit overwhelming on the lemon flavor for me, but I think that is how its intended to be. The boutique hotel setting adds to the charm, with a spacious front and back patio tucked away from the crowds.

Gayle and I recently enjoyed a pleasant Lunch on the Patio at the Dial House Hotel. The weather…read morewas warm and sunny, and best of all our table provided a buffer from the Bank Holiday crowds at Bourton-on-the-Water. We can't recall what Gayle ordered, while my choice was some sort of tandoori chicken dish. My pint of local beer and her class of chardonnay were also at the table. Everything tasted good, even more so with a relaxing atmosphere and interesting table neighbors. Service was pleasant, but oddly fast on the food coming out, while slow for the drinks. Rest rooms were available inside the hotel for customers, which is kind of a big thing when you're within a very crowded downtown.

This is a brilliant place and is like stepping back into time.  It has terrific ambiance, and the food is great.

We chose Stow Lodge in Stow on the Wold for our stay in the Cotswolds in part because it had ground…read morefloor accommodation available, in a cottage across the lawn from the main lodge, which was formerly the Rectory of a well-known church, and partly because the lodge was set back from the main square, yet near shops, restaurants and pubs. Our cottage, No. 30, was about 180 pounds B&B, VAT included. It was larger than most rooms, with a living area, sleeping area with king bed (a bit soft), a small sitting room and a front patio overlooking the back of the lodge. Stow may not be the quaintest or most charming of the Cotswold villages, and the main Square is being taken over by a larger and larger parking lot. However, it is handy to be able to easily walk to attractions such as the medieval St. Edward's Church, Grade I listed with its remarkable door flanked by huge yew trees, and to places to shop and eat and drink. Stow is handy to visit other nearby villages, if you have a car or can spring a pretty penny for a hire taxi. As to Stow Lodge, it is the kind of places that just looks and feels very, very English. Indeed, although it was high season for tourism (August 2023) nearly all the guests appeared to be British. Besides us, there was one apparently American family and one evening a group touring in vintage Bentleys stopped for the night (one of the Bentleys, a 1929 4 1/2-liter, was owned by an Australian.) This Bentley surely would bring 300,000 pounds or more if offered for sale. Most of the guests, like us, were, shall we say, older? Nearly everyone staying the the small lodge had dinner in the very English dining room (think roast beef on Sunday, fried whitebait for appetizers, and roast lamb). You could have a drink in the bar or the in the sitting room with overstuffed leather sofas, but dinner started exactly at 7 pm. The room came inclusive of a full English breakfast, with eggs either fried, scrabled or poached, served promptly at 8 am. Service at this family-owned inn was friendly, cheerful and efficient. Everything was very clean, and the lodge is well run.

The room was clean and well appointed, the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom seem to have been updated. Dinner at the Hotel restaurant was delicious.

Hotel also has a bar and serves afternoon tea that you can enjoy in the fireside lounge. I definitely recommend the Stow Lodge Hotel.

However, overall hotel room comfort did not meet expectations. When we checked in, our room was very hot due to the sun coming in the windows. The AC didn't work properly and the front desk was very slow in finding someone to solve the problem. Because we faced the street, it was too noisy to have the windows open at night to get fresh air. Perhaps I would have felt differently if given a room in the back with a view of the gardens. This was our least favorite hotel out of the six we stayed in during a 7-day walking tour.

Quality, Service, and Experience definitely worth more than 22£ per person.
