As a seasoned traveler, The Bird in the Hand surpassed all expectations. Our check-in was seamless and highly efficient, with all facilities explained in great detail. We were offered and accepted a table for dinner before being shown to our rooms. The room was spacious, well laid out, and extremely comfortable. Dinner was a culinary delight, with a menu that met our expectations and food of excellent quality. However, it was the staff that truly made our stay exceptional; they were friendly, helpful, and courteous. A perfect 10/10 on all levels. Thank you, we will be back!

Building full of character and ideally located. Warm and friendly staff. Was just perfect couple of days away! Will definitely be back!
This property is located in the village of South Leigh, just 15 minutes' drive to Oxford city centre and a 20-minute drive from the Cotswolds.

Great location with easy access off A40 to and from Oxford and Bourton. The circular walk finishing up in the ruins of Lovell castle with it’s history shown on the site put it all in perspective. This part of the Cotswolds as with other areas has not changed down the years and that’s what makes it so special.

The location, style of the hotel, staff, amenities in the room and food and drink were all excellent.
Our feedback for improvement was that the spa we felt lacked a little personality (the tulip artwork could be replaced with a large photograph of the surrounding countryside, or historical building near by perhaps)? The spa outdoor garden area again a little lack lustre and tired/ a few customers had left a few empty bottles on the floor etc.
When we went walking in the beautiful surrounding estate countryside which we found very relaxing and pleasant.. we did come across a fair amount of litter and teenagers drinking by the river which is a shame.
Our tv aerial in our room wasn't very good.

A very small village, from which it's possible to reach the rest of the Cotswolds. Minster Lovell itself probably not worth more than a fleeting visit, but a nice place to stay overnight given it's quiet and not so busy, while arranging day trips elsewhere.

Not sure where to start but avoid booking this hotel if you’re looking for luxury. The room was too warm, fair enough it was a hot day outside but it was excessively too warm in the room with no a/c. Too uncomfortable to the point you could hardly breathe. We also had a dog and he was crying to be let out and constantly panting it was that bad. We were supplied with 4 fans and this still didn’t cool the room and could not sleep at all. We noticed a review left over a year ago stating the same thing that their dog was too uncomfortable with the heat. They obviously do not care about dogs wellbeing if they’re willing to put them at risk of overheating! Why hasn’t this been addressed? To make matters worse the hotel was advertised as being refurbished, our room certainly had not been refurbished. The toilet seat was disgusting with stains all over it. The mini bar was non existent, had 1 bottle of water in it and even that was warm from the mini bar not even working! The bathroom was dirty and one of the towels was dirty. They advertise that the rooms have Dyson hairdryers in, ours did not. While the hairdryer didn’t bother us it’s the fact that they falsely advertised this as one thing and we got something completely different. We would have got a better room if we have stayed in a budget hotel at half the price! It was supposed to be a relaxing night away but was ruined by the experience we had.
Beautiful accommodation. The location was within 30 mins of most towns we wanted to visit. The lodge was very spacious and stylish and I have never felt so relaxed compared to a hotel stay. The bed and pillows were comfortable. All the little touches were very thoughtful including milk and orange juice in the fridge. My friend and I were really impressed. We had ample space to do yoga in the living room after a day of exploring.
The accommodation was a great departure from the usual chain hotels. Loved the style & setup. Bed comfortable, tea/coffee making facilities, and a selection of breakfast snacks. Secluded & secure grounds, close proximity to car for moving bags/luggage. Really responsive & accommodating host.
Unusual property, near Minster Lovell. Went for a very interesting circular walk along the Windrush valley including The Old Manor near the church.
Enjoyed having our breakfast outside in the private bbq space. Great that we could sleep with the glass door open.
Great location for 2 friends attending a wedding in Minster Lovell. Clean and spacious stay for 2 people –we wished we were staying for longer to make the most of the shared garden area. Great breakfast hamper and welcome info. Wouldn't hesitate to visit again!
Dinner & Breakfast was great, staff were excellent throughout. The Old Swan Pub was an attractive addition and complimented the hotel and provided a relaxed atmosphere and the pie was beautiful. The location next to the river was fantastic.
I liked the location of the hotel it was very sweet and had a lot of comfy characters that i was looking for in a hotel stay. Although it was raining on the night we stayed the grounds looked amazing.
This is a fabulous hotel, right on the Windrush River. I travelled alone and felt very comfortable and safe. Oh and my dog loved walking around the gardens and adjoining land.
