A nice and pretty place to stay for a night, but we were there for 4 nights and that is why we have rated it so poorly. Our room was small but nu

2.0 / 10.0

Whilst the food was nice and the waitress lovely, there were some really disappointing elements to our stay…our bathroom had some unsightly grimy areas…we stayed during a heat wave and whilst no one can control the weather, the room was unbearably hot despite the use of two old and not very effective fans…we had a very poor night sleep for this reason! The path to the outside garden area had an area that looked very unsightly with rubbish and various other items. Absolutely not worth the money for this stay and would not recommend or return.

The smallest room was excellent! Soft plllowsn and a vestibule to capture all of our travelling bags well.

Great hotel...thought it was pretty cool that it's the oldest inn in England. We had dinner at the hotel one night and food and service was very good. Breakfast also delicious and made to order!! The location is very convenient to shopping and other restaurants. There is not hotel parking available, but paid parking is nearby. Our room was on the second floor and no lift in the hotel. A staff member carried our bags up the stairs for us. Everyone was very pleasant.

3.0 / 10.0

The hotel is very old and quaint, however, a lot of the decor looked very tired and worn out. Couldn't tell if it was tired or just needed a good cleaning. The bathroom was not equipped well. No tissues or wash clothes. Window shade in the room was not working well. Bed was comfortable and sheets seemed fine. The access to the room was difficult because of some very narrow and low ceiling stairs. Staff wasn't overly friendly and they seemed frazzled and under staffed. We did have a very good meal in the restaurant.

It was truly a pleasure to stay at England’s oldest inn. We loved our room, the history and the restaurant. We brought our dog as well, and it was just such a lovely weekend. Can’t wait to come back.

This was the cutest inn on the Cotswolds! And the food was delicious!

My wife and I chose The Porch House for our 2 night stay in November becuase we perceived the common areas to be comfortable places to spend some down time in the Cotswolds. We were not disappointed. The Inn is very comfortable and the bar was great. The rooms were clean and comfortable but a bit small. Overall I am glad we stayed theyre and would definitely stay there again if searching for a room.

10.0 / 10.0

I had an amazing experience at the porch house. The staff was phenomenal. Very friendly and willing to assist as needed. The room was very clean and the bed was pretty comfortable. I even ate at their restaurant and the food was delicious. There is long-term parking down the street that is easy use. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone.

This is a lovely historic property with a great restaurant. The only thing that could be improved is the WiFi. It was non-existent in our room and in the public areas we were required to give personal information and allow our phones to be tracked to use it. We chose not to.

The staff, food and surroundings were wonderful. Who wouldn’t want to sleep in a building built in the 10th century. Would definitely visit again

The Porch House was a comfortable choice for a one night stay. The staff were friendly and the room clean and bed really comfortable. The inn is very old and has lots of character, but the bedroom and ensuite bathroom were quite small.

5.0 / 10.0

As a lover of history, you cannot find a better place that a spot that has been operating for a thousand years! Clean, comfortable where the staff are super friendly and welcoming. If you want to immerse yourself in the Cotswolds, start here! The food at the restaurant was amazing as well!

Black mould was found in numerous areas of the room, quite unclean also

3.0 / 10.0

The staff were lovely and the food (breakfast and dinner) were fantastic! The room unfortunately was just average (especially considering star rating), with a comfortable bed but tiny bathroom, no control of heating and the only small window opened onto patio/parking, meaning was quite noisy. Also no service during our stay meant we ran out of basic amenities on 2nd night.

10.0 / 10.0

Great England experience in a 1000 year old inn. Central and authentic. Loved the room over the entrance with views all around. Didn’t mind banging my head on the door frame too much, but I am 5’7”! Great pub downstairs. Not modern but that is what we were looking for.

Exactly what I would expect from oldest pub/inn in England. Lot of character, but well kept!

We loved the staff and the character of the Porch House. The building wraps itself around you and feels very old and welcoming. We were sad not to encounter the ghost that some people have encountered in our room! The bed was comfy and the pillows a delight. We would come back again and next time hope to see the ghost!

Only a one night stay but stay was great. From check in staff, bar and restaurant staff and the cleaners we met when we arrived and departed were all great, friendly and welcoming. The hotel is excellent for a real taste of the Cotswolds and our meal in the restaurant in the evening, and breakfast in the morning were great also.

What a charming inn! We loved our stay at the Porch House. Though the original charm is intact, the room was clean and comfortable. The bathroom, though small, was updated. We enjoyed the very convenient location to sites in Stow-on-the-Wold, the lovely pub and restaurant and the hospitality of all of the staff. There is a lot of interesting history at the Porch House. As a bonus, we arrived late and were allowed to stay in our temporary parking spot for the night. We were the last guest to check in and other available parking was scarce. That was very kind and very appreciated.

Room ridiculously small for the price. We were supposed to be in a comfort room but were actually in the tiny Snug room.Also noisy at the front of the hotel with poorly closing non double glazed windows.
