The spot was spot on and the staff’s eye for detail blew me away. I couldn’t find anything to complain about.

Thyme stands out among boutique countryside hotels, with a stunning entrance that instantly relaxes you. The staff strike a friendly yet professional tone, and every corner of the property is arranged so guests feel secluded in their own space. Even over an August weekend, the place never felt crowded, thanks to its thoughtful design, room count, and layout. The pool resembles something from southern France, while the houses capture quintessential English charm. The meals are exquisite, reflecting meticulous ingredient sourcing and a genuine, authentic menu—a rarity in the hotel scene. However, the Swan pub linked to the hotel fell short; the service was subpar and the food mediocre, especially considering the price.

The pool is lovely, the grounds and overall vibe are gorgeous, but the rooms are small and lack a shower—only a bathtub is available.

The old buildings, freshly prepared, sit in a small, idyllic countryside village. Service is good, breakfast is fine, and the walking paths through the fields to nearby villages are pleasant.

The location is fantastic, the best spot in the Cotswolds. The restaurant is superb, staff are efficient and helpful, and the stay was delightful. Nothing to add.
