Hare & Hounds Hotel  

Nice old cotswold type hotel taht has been maintained well.in lovely countryside,but also convenint for towns. RESTAURANT STAFF EXCELLENT,SERVING WITH HUMOUR AND EXPERTISE. FOOD VERY GOOD PORTER ON THE DAY 6TH SEPT A LIFE SAVER FOR US AND VERY HELPFUL AND PLEASANT.HELPING CALM DOWN INITIAL VERY BAD ARRIVAL EXPERIENCE.

On arrival in pouring rain could not park and indeed told we could not park in an area by a car salesman who was working for a company showing its wares!! WE WERE FORCED TO CIRCLE THE HOTEL A NUMBER OF TIMES AND FINALLY SIT IN THE CAR DUE TO THE RAIN.A NUMBER OF OTHER GUESTS SUFFERED THE SAME TREATMENT! ON FINALLY GETTING TO RECEPTION A MISERABLE RECEPTIONIST GOT INTO A DISCUSSION ABOUT MY DINNER RESERVATION WHICH I REQUIRED CHANGING DUE TO MY GUEST ARRIVING EARLIER.AFTER ALMOST WALKING OUT DUE TO THE PARKING AND THIS GREETING.THE PORTER ARRIVED CALMED THE WHOLE THING AND SHOWED ME TO THE ROOM IN A PLEASANT AND PROFESSIONAL WAY

Travelling with my daughter and 4 years grand daughter we immediately felt at home - the staff were charming and had a caring attitude to their guests - our room in one of the cottages was very comfortable, well- designed with bedroom separated from bathroom by a dressing area - very clean and calm to the senses in the honeyed coloured mix of traditional and modern. The bathroom was spacious and modern with a large walk in shower and bath. Molten brown toiletries were welcome as were the little touches of johnsons baby bath and yellow duck! Food was excellent - the lounge areas were very comfortable - A fair few 'verys' here!! I stay in a lot of hotels for work and few come up to the mix of comfort, calm and excellent but unobtrusive service we found here - one small detail - the radiator in the bathroom was on - warm towels - essential in the UK summer :) and so thoughtful -

The food was very good taste wise but portions at dinner were tiny - nouvelle cuisine style which is a bit passé - my leek terrine starter with walnuts and apple was a 4cm side triangle with 3 tiny walnuts and 2 tiny apple balls - expectations from menu description were disappointed - on their side were the amuse bouche and sorbet 'additions' which meant in all we wern't hungry - but we are 2 women careful with our diets!! For the bigger appetite it would have been a mere snack - the side of veg consisted of 4 small potatoes and 2 of minature carrots, leek and celery - felt a bit ripped off - and the wine was expensive too - a real shame in an otherwise good experience -

Very comfortable and relaxing. Food excellent and staff very welcoming and friendly. Location superb for the arboretum, Tetbury and the wonderful Abbey Gardens at Malmesbury.

Lovely building, large room, very good food and excellent service.

The room was very spacious

Room had no heating was bit cold at night . Tv was a bit small to watch from bed . Plus when we ate are meal we had other family's children and dog walking up to are table which we found a but rude

Peaceful.

Very limited vegetarian 'menu'.

Overall a lovely hotel in a stunning part of the country. Could do with bigger cups in the room!
