Nice hotel but overpriced

We stayed here for 2 nights after reading mostly good reviews. The staff were nice but not very helpful, nobody explained to us that breakfast was included etc. The hotel was clean, but the rooms were stuffy and hot. The pillows were really uncomfortable!!! The little touch of a milk delivery in the morning was nice. It’s a quick drive into Cirencester, so the hotel is in a good location. Overall, I think this hotel is overpriced and the staff should explain things better to new guests about their stay.

Perfect cotswolds stay

This is my second stay at wild thyme and honey, this time with my mum and it was just perfect. The service is great and they go the extra mile to make you feel welcome. The food is delicious too.
