THE SARACENS HEAD INN

The location of the Inn and the friendly staff. So kind of Rob for helping us with phone calls and letting my relatives use his phone to contact me. I had Cell phone issues. The Inn had a local feel to it and provided walkable and enjoyable outings. Especially the Memorial Gardens across the street. The breakfasts were large and we enjoyed the traditional English fry up! There are also some nice restaurants near by within walking distance. The courtyard is cute and it was nice to sit out there for a bit when the weather was good.

Firstly, the location is great. Right in the centre of the old town. Full of beautiful, old, charming buildings. The Saracens Head Inn is a wonderful, traditionally British pub, complete with low beam ceilings and classic British pub bar, stools, chairs. We haven't been back to the UK for more than 5 years and we absolutely loved staying in an old Inn, reminiscent of growing up in rural Gloucestershire. The actual pub area brought back memories of working in a pub a few decades ago, cleaning the brass, washing glasses, clearing the beer drip trays. Love that smell. Full of friendly locals having a pint and chatting about their day with staff who were engaging and happy. The room we were in was very spacious, lots of space for a good size double bed, a couple of comfy chairs, full length mirror, place to hand your towel, wardrobe. Coffee machine as well as a kettle. Good size teacups, plenty of supplies and absolutely delicious biscuits. Everything thoughtfully put together.Good size showerroom with full body size towels and complimentary toiletries. We were very late to breakfast, and realised we've probably missed it. However, the chef made us a delicious bacon and sausage sandwich and plenty of tea, coffee and orange juice. Very grateful he still made sure we had a good breakfast. I forgot to ask his name, but he was very friendly, helpful and clearly a hard worker.

A lovely and quaint Inn. The pub was small and cosy, great choice of lagers on tap! Bed was comfortable and the place had a lot of history to it. Our room was on a slant due to how hold the infrastructure of the building is, which I thought was amusing and added a lot of character! Breakfast was also great and staff were friendly and welcoming.

Nice old fashioned pub serving real ales with parking on main road outside. Breakfast available from 7am so good for contractors needing an early start. No Food Monday evenings but a good Indian Restaurant virtually directly opposite. Underground station 0.7miles away with cheap car parking available in multi-story.

Really friendly welcome, great staff, good food and beer in the pub. Large and clean room. Rooms around the courtyard of the pub, so expect a lively atmosphere. I did not mind this at all but if you like to go to bed early and have silence, this might not be the right choice for you. After closing, very peaceful night. Fabulous location. You could stay here and not need to leave the building!
