Great location. Great staff. Very helpful and friendly.Gave good advice.

Colin United Kingdom

The location was perfect for us as we had a kayak. Nice walks along the river too. The food and service was also very good.

Samantha United Kingdom

The food,comfy beds and great attitudes of the people working here. We were there for an event which we stretched into a girls weekend. Perfect riverside location and beautiful surroundings. Lovely village too

Olivia United Kingdom

The photos don't do the room justice. The twin room in the annexe was lovely- tastefully decorated,clean and comfortable. Breakfast was too late for my daughter so the chef made her a gluten free sandwich the night before so that she could take it with her for breakfast

Jayne United Kingdom

Fabulous staff, very friendly and helpful. Lovely beds and surroundings. Great laid back country pub atmosphere. Excellent breakfasts!

John United States of America

Food, Stay, Live music, Staff were friendly and the scenic view

Jennifer United Kingdom

Very good breakfast - full English or anything else on the menu. The dining area overlooked the Thames. Rooms were in separate building from the pub so no noise from the bar.

Ken United Kingdom

The location is beautiful, the room was big and very comfortable and all furnishings were very good quality. The biscuits were epic👍, staff were very friendly and helpful.

Anthony United Kingdom

Clean location, excellent staff and facilities. Nice in house beer with amazing country side set up ;) One of the best experience so far in England

Pushpak United Kingdom

First time to the cotswolds and chose the Riverside as our base. Location … right on the river with very happy ducks. PERFECT ! Accommodation… surprisingly lovely and much more than we expected ( fluffy towels, pillows & beds very comfortable, lots of thought behind the decor, wonderful bathroom with walk in shower etc…and ‘self heat’ controlled. … so lovely and warm in November. ) I cannot begin to praise the staff enough and the lovely family that run the Riverside. Everyone is so beyond helpful and friendly. May I add… the manager has a truly happy team of staff behind him as it really comes through in the service and attitude. I would love to keep this place a secret but rather think that’s impossible! To sum up…. It’s a pub with food and accommodation… Set in a perfect location .. right on the waters edge… in a gorgeous Cotswold village BUT… keep it quiet 🤫
