Old Crown Inn

The Cotswolds


A romantic vision of the English country pub, nestled on the village green with whitewashed walls and a snug interior, the Old Crown serves old-fashioned meals – ham and chips, steak and ale pie, ploughman’s lunches – at old-fashioned prices, plus a fine selection of local beers and ciders. It also has four simple en-suite rooms upstairs (double including breakfast from £75).
