    A charming and unforgettable stay in Stow-on-the-Wold

    Everything about our stay at The Kings Arms was absolutely wonderful! Staying here feels like stepping straight into a tale. The building is full of character and charm, with such a warm and cosy atmosphere, and the location couldn’t be better, right in the heart of beautiful Stow-on-the-Wold. A special mention goes to the chef with the magnificent moustache, who made us the most delicious scrambled eggs for breakfast! Such a lovely little detail that made our stay even more memorable. We truly enjoyed every moment and would absolutely love to come back. A wonderful place that we wholeheartedly recommend!

    The food was the best we have ever had, the history and ascetic was everything we could have hoped for and staff were am

    The character of the place was amazing

    I couldn’t fault it…even during renovations, they still looked after the hotel guests with dinner and breakfast
