Sarah
We have been here a few times now over the last 4 years - usually for a birthday getaway - I have to say this time we weren’t overly taken by the experience. The room was really dusty and lots of cobwebs - the floor still had stains on by the bed. The flannel wasn’t clean as I went to use it and I could smell soap which was supplied in the bathroom. There wasn’t hardly and sugar cubes in the room and where the fresh milk was stood in the fridge there was mould growing - I don’t think the fridge has had a good clean for a while.
On arrival the manager didn’t ask if we were staying for an occasion, just felt like there was no interest and was too busy saying if we booked direct we could of got free breakfast but as we booked via Hotels. Com it’s not included - again this didn’t capture me as good customer service - I think as a returning customer even if he offered one breakfast free as we were staying for 2 nights…. Just the small things keep customers returning!!
Such a shame - I don’t think we will be returning anytime soon, I felt like you could really see corners being cut.

The Bower House property is truly a gem.
Clean and beautiful property at a reasonable rate. Nobody around on Monday and Tuesdays to check you in just a lock box system, but it works well.

Great location for exploring the Cotswolds and Oxford - beautifully maintained, spacious, comfortable well equipped bedrooms. Dinner was excellent but the lack of sit down breakfast facility apart from weekends may put some people off but we found somewhere a short walk away that was good so not a big deal. Very attentive staff too.
Warrick
Very nice place and great staff,room was perfect and bath and shower were excellent.the only thing I would recommend is a mattress topper as the mattress was a bit lumpy.

Andy
Beautiful place, oustanding service and staff
Room was huge with an extremely comfortable king sized bed. Beautifullt decorated. Large bathroom, again fitted out to a high level and with lovely products. Freshly baked cookies provided in the room on arrival, which was also a lovely touch. Staff from reception, to waiting to kitchen were engaging, attentive and friendly. One of the best hotels I've stayed in

Night away
Wonderful spot. Beautiful room, well appointed. And the restaurant is lovely. Highly recommended.
Richard
Our second stay at the Bower House and it was lovely, the added air con units were a bonus. Very disappointed however to find out that the cooked breakfast options are not included in the week only on weekends.
SHAUN
Hotel was beautiful and in great location but room was not clean, dirty tissues behind radiator and food crumbs on mat. Room was also extremely hot and air conditioning unit was ridiculously loud. Service was also terrible, no one available in a morning
Courtney
Charming Weekend in the Cotswolds
I had a wonderful stay! The room is wonderfully appointed, quite large and very cozy. I was thrilled at seeing it. I'm still thinking about the amazing claw foot tub! The food at the Bower House below is absolutely delicious and the staff are incredibly kind and service-oriented. I hope I get to stay here soon again. The downtown area that the restaurant and rooms are in is so charming with many shops, restaurants, etc. I loved my three night stay
Fionnghuala
Our stay was very good and the rooms were very clean.
Wayne
Amazing little find. Five star all the way.
Paul
Nice, quirky little hotel with good food. Great for a 1 night stay as Shipston is a bit limited beyond the hotel itself.
Joseph
We had an absolutely terrific stay at the Bower House! We were delighted by the welcome gifts and daily service. I have been visiting Shipston for many years and the BH is a welcome addition to the area.
Laura
A very friendly welcome on arrival. Lovely room, beautiful bathroom. The area was very pretty with lots of coffee shops and bars, though not much more. A relaxing stay. Only criticism was the room was a bit cold. We were told we could turn our radiators up, but they never warmed and there wasn’t anyone at night when we got back to ask. Otherwise lovely.
Sharon
The room and breakfast were fantastic!
Heather
We had just the one night stay at The Bower House as we were breaking our journey home. The accommodation was lovely and we had a very tasty breakfast the following morning. We were disappointed in that the evening we booked to stay the restaurant was not open as it would have been good to have dinner there and there were good reviews online.
Verified traveler
Our stay at The Bower House was perfect. The room was beautiful and the staff were welcoming and helpful. We are in the restaurant and the food was delicious. Highly recommended.

Wonderful place!
We stayed for two nights and we loved our stay at The Bower House! Beautiful and spacious room was a welcome surprise. The bathroom was also huge and very nice. The decor was well done and the surprise welcome cookies were a great treat. Sadly we stayed here when the restaurant was closed so we didn’t get to try it but we had dinner at their sister restaurant, The Howard Arms, and it was fantastic! I would definitely stay here again!
Scott
Only stay Wednesday through Saturday
If you plan to stay at this charming hotel do not stay Sunday through Tuesday as the hotel restaurant is not open- so check in is difficult and no food/ bar options
We did love George townhouse to eat both nights we were in shipston in stour

Beautiful characterful bedroom with a stunning bathroom [The Pink Room], and a lovely meal in the restaurant. To top it off a fantastic breakfast too.
Kimberley
Absolutely amazing stay, the room was a dream 😍 decorated to such a high standard, everything you could wish for! The bathroom was huge, the bath was the perfect way to start bank holiday Monday! Cannot recommend it highly enough, we are already looking at dates to come back! Thank you so much ❤️

Perfect room ~ missed opportunity
The Bower House Restaurant and Rooms is in an ideal position on the Main Street of Shipston on Stour. Our room was large, comfortable and decorated with style. The en-suite was equally large with a perfect walk in shower and separate bath.
An amazing place to stay ~ it would have been better if there were someone there to meet us and ~ had I realised that the restaurant was closed from Sunday evening until Wednesday morning. Disappointingly, this was the length of our visit and so we only sampled the food at breakfast as we were leaving.
Luckily, the high street had other places we could eat in. We regret not having the opportunity to enjoy the restaurant’s evening offerings.

Great room, amazing food and wonderful staff. Had a great atmosphere.

Fantastic experience in the Cotswolds
This place was amazing! One of the nicest rooms we have ever stayed in! Kids had their own separate room with bunk beds which they loved. The main bedroom was stunning with a fabulous bed and facilities. The bathroom had a massive bath which filled in minutes. The separate shower room was fantastic. Cannot recommend this place enough.
Rachel
Really lovely hotel. Perfect decor, huge bathroom - felt like a treat! Nice touches of fruit and biscuits on arrival, and still and sparkling water. Very polite staff.
It’s quite noisy outside as the hotel sits in front of a small parking area and strip of shops, so bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper. Floors are quite creaky but that sort of adds to the ambiance if you don’t mind it. Doors are a little hard to lock and are quite heavy. We were in a room next to the staff cleaning cupboard (I think) so from quite early could hear them coming in and out of it.
Food very nice in the restaurant downstairs.
Overall, a lovely place to stay and will definitely return.

Best hotel in the Cotswolds
This is an amazing little hotel that is very deserving of a 5-star rating. They truly understand how to give a 5-star experience to their patrons.
My wife and I stayed there for one night on our way from Scotland to London to fly home after a 2 week vacation in Scotland. Wow! What a way to end a vacation!
The rooms are very nicely appointed and comfortable, the food and service in the restaurant is spot on, and the entire staff goes above and beyond to make you feel special.
We had to leave for the airport in the morning before their restaurant opened but the chef offered to come in early to fix breakfast for us. We were very touched. Need I say more? I can’t recommend them highly enough.
