King’s Head Inn

The Cotswolds


Overlooking a peaceful green 4 miles southeast of Stow, this stylishly revamped 16th-century pub blends old and new to perfection, holding a dozen subtly luxurious, individually styled rooms plus a good restaurant. The six cosy rooms in the original building burst with old-world character (exposed beams, check-print rugs), while the quieter courtyard rooms offer sumptuous contemporary design.
