Perfect location to explore Bristol's Gloucester Road shops and restaurants. Friendly pub with good food options and beer selections. Room was large and bed was comfy. Bathroom is small, but you get use to it.

Clean rooms but surprised my room was not en suite, with a private bathroom up the corridor. Excellent staff. Dodgy door for access after 11pm. I was locked out and had to knock on the window. Also no breakfast available. Good beer in the pub itself.

Highly recommended

Friendly welcome, clean room (most important), comfortable bed (also important), nice view over park, excellent food and good choice of beers. Easy walk to Southmead hospital (saves a taxi fare, which was one of the reasons I chose it). What's not to like?

Comfortable family friendly

Nice family pub. It can be a bit noisy during pub open hours but my family were very comfortable and had a great nights sleep. The bar below sells nice selection of beers and the play area kept our daughter busy so we could relax.

Great beer garden and food

This place is a pub with rooms and my feeling is that the rooms are generally rented by working men on short stays. Not couples in their 70s like me and my husband. For example there was a clothes rail but no coat hangers. And no hair dryer but plenty of USB points. The bed was large and very comfortable. The main plus of the Crafty Cow was the staff. They were all lovely and couldn’t have been more helpful. Especially the brilliant Graham who did source me a hairdryer. I’m a smoker so the large beer garden with a covered area was a big plus. The food was fabulous and on a Friday evening it was very busy. They don’t do breakfast but there are various choices about 15 minutes walk away. Also a shop 5 minutes away. We stayed there because it was near friends we were visiting and would definitely stay there again if in the area. Another plus is that residents get 10% off all food and drink purchased there. What’s not to like!

Perfect to get your head down

Perfect accommodation for our needs. Two refurbed doubles were big and good with en suite. The twin room was small and bathroom not en suite, should be priced a lot cheaper. No facilities for breakfast in the morning although lidl a 4 min drive
