WHAT WE LOVE...

A good-looking country inn neatly updated for the 21st century, this honey-stone sanctuary sits in its own sweeping grounds just off the centre of Lower Slaughter, one of the Cotswolds' most famously beautiful villages. With a picturesque river skirting its ample lawns, it's a perfect English retreat. Stepping inside, there's an equally mellow vibe. Curl up by one of the stone fireplaces in winter or sit out on the generous terrace in summer - The Slaughters Country Inn is very much an informal venue. Child-friendly and dog-friendly, it exudes both down-to-earth charm and a great sense of welcome.

Style & Character

Everyone will love this hotel - especially families with young children, who have generous space to run around in. The big fireplace at the end of the rambling bar area is magnificent.
