“Expensive and rude service”

Reviewed June 15, 2013 NEW via mobile

Didn't stay here so can't comment on the rooms, but was charged close to two pounds for a half a pint of lemonade! Straight out of a Schweppes bottle too. When questioning the price of this the barman was extremely rude and bluntly told me the price again. Won't be visiting anytime soon.

Problem with this review?

Firstly from the bottom of my heart may i sincerely apologize for the rudeness of my staff which I genuinely hope was just a "bad hair day " because normally we receive lots of compliments about our happiness to communicate with people. From the point of view,about the price of the lemonade, I think there are a couple of points.In... More

We stayed at the Fox Inn for 2 weeks in the Bridal Suite on honeymoon, the room and en-suite shower were both excellent size and comfort. The food was wonderful quality and tasted amazing; the portion sizes are very good, all the food is produced locally and is all very fresh. Paul the landlord and his staff couldn't do enough... More

“Well worth a visit (and stay!)”

We have just returned from a 2 night stay at the Fox Inn and would definitely return in the future. The Fox is situated between the 2 small villages of Little and Great Barrington and is located right on the river Windrush. There is a surprise when you go to the rear of the pub....a huge beer garden which has... More

“Lovely Meal in the heart of The Cotswolds”

Reviewed May 15, 2013

When we arrived at The Fox Inn, it was raining dark and cold so we were hoping for some lovely food in a warm establishment. We weren’t disappointed at all and one of the great things about The Fox Inn was the log burning fire in the main bar area which gave the place such a homely feel. Both the... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review, we are really happy that you enjoyed your Meal with us and thank you for uploading the photos of the food.

“Great place to stay.”

Reviewed May 6, 2013

Had a brilliant 2 night stay on a KGB deal. Room excellent; beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Food good especially breakfast. Grest spot for exploring the region with Little Barrington being a delightful village.

Thank you we are so pleased you enjoyed your 'Fox 2013 Pub experience' . All still being a Great British Pub whilst offering 21st Century facilities and service in a 17th century Cotswold Country pub is my personal ambition and I thank the staff for helping me fulfill that aim. More

“Superb spot, great centre for the Cotswolds”

Reviewed April 16, 2013

If you want a great pub, with very comfortable accommodation and good food, from which to base your Cotswolds exploration this has to be it. Pub is all slightly shabby chic but the bedrooms are straight chic; very spoiling. Breakfast and service (throughout the two day stay) couldn't be faulted. Four stars simply reflects the 4 out of 5 that... More

Thank you for your nice review and a thank you from me Paul to my staff for helping your stay be memorable.
