We highly recommend The Lamb Inn in Great Rissington. We were a guest for 5 nights. Our room was extremely clean, the bed very cozy and comfortable. The entire staff very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was great with healthy options, and the dinners we had at the Inn were delicious. We were told The Lamb Inn was recently bought and the new owners have done a great job in the upgrades and furnishings. Thank you for a wonderful stay in The Cotswold's! The Worthington's from GA

Great stay

Enjoyed our one night stay very much. Check out was 11:00 am not 10:00 plus a free continental breakfast was included which was quite substantial including tea, coffee, juices, fresh fruit, overnight oats, toast, jams, cheese and ham. All the staff were very welcoming, kind and helpful. We would definitely stay here again. Thank you.

We had a beautiful room separate from the Inn (Witney) which made it feel like a little cottage on its own. The room was spacious and clean, the bed comfortable and the shower clean. We ate breakfast and dinner at the hotel and both were great. The staff are very friendly and welcoming and happy to help on all occasions. We would definitely stay here again.

I have been going to the Lamb for 30 years and would like to think there is another 30 to go, although a stairlift may be needed by the end. All you could ask for, good food, a comfortable bed and quiet.

Very cramped room (4).

Unfortunately, the room we were given (4) was very small, no room for a seat anywhere, so even if you wanted to watch a bit of TV we had to do so in some discomfort on the bed, the staff were extremely helpful and friendly it's in an idea location, on busy evenings the car park got full & if you get back early evening you may need to park on the road.

Good

Overall the stay was mediocre. The room (classic suite) was suitable for an overnight stay (I would switch out to sliding doors for the wardrobe and bathroom). The pricing of the food \ drinks are expensive even for the area Circa £4 per dish Circa £1 - 2 per drink Hospitality was a bit "cold and icy". Not entirely sure if this was down to us, however we were greeted coldly and when having breakfast were not asked for another cup of coffee when other tables around us were offered coffee 3 times.

Sjarmerende i idylliske og landlige omgivelser

Lav tak fordi huset er gammelt, skeive gulv og vegger, men svært sjarmerende innredet, rent og fresht bad. Veldig hyggelig personale, og svært god mat på restauranten. Idylliske og rolige omgivelser, men ikke noe servicetilbud i umiddelbar nærhet.

Nice little inn in the middle of the Cotswolds. Great place to escape from the city. Ample free parking. Dinner was good at the restaurant. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Be aware if you do have luggage, it is quite a climb to your room. The manager was very kind to help us bring the luggage.
