Your perfect place to stay
If you’re searching for the perfect base to explore historic Malmesbury, Cirencester and the Cotswolds, come and stay in our elegant country house. There’s a choice of five large guest rooms, and a two-bedroomed cottage in picture-postcard, riverside grounds.
The Old Rectory has been classically restored in every detail, yet modernised for 21st-century living. Even in a country house hotel, you get the sense you’re in an hotel. This is a chance to relax and unwind in a home from home – with all the West Country has to offer, right on your doorstep.
Relax and rejuvenate
After a rejuvenating sleep in your generously proportioned room, freshen-up in your en suite or private bathroom, then enjoy a sumptuous, locally sourced breakfast in the conservatory or dining room.
Watch kingfishers and otters from the drawing-room, terrace or riverside decks. We’ll be on hand if you need anything, yet in the background. Time moves effortlessly here. Savour every moment.
