Stinchcombe Hill House

My partner and I stayed at this B&B while attending a wedding at the nearby Berkeley castle. This is not a hotel, in my opinion it isn't really a B&B. This felt like we were at a family friends home. If you aren't after a truly unforgettable taste of life in a country manor then this isn't for you. We were greeted by a wonderful lady named Jane and two beautiful jack Russells who were very playful, hot drinks and cakes were offered on arrival and instead of being ushered into our rooms Jane sat with us and we chatted for a while. We were shown to our room which was very large and dated, no mod cons, just an extremely comfy bed and a beautiful view, needles to say we loved it. We stayed in 'The Blue Room' and so had a separate bathroom which looked recently refurbished, again with a wonderful view and a very extravagant bath. Breakfast was amazing, they offer a choice of duck or hen eggs, and we settled down at a very grand table in a truly beautiful dining room. The resident billy goat had free roam of the grounds and was extremely friendly, as were the cats. This house is old, creepy and dated. We loved it all, in our opinion this truly represents a Cotswold home with great hospitality, great food and an even better nights sleep.
