“Perfect position”

Reviewed 14 Sep 2019

Had a fabulous week. The location is perfect, just sit by the river and watch the world go by or take a 2 minute walk and your in bustling Tewkesbury high street. Also perfectly situated to go further afield to the Cotswolds, Cheltenham or Worcester. The stairs are a little steep if your not so able but my 85 year old mom managed them. I would definitely stay again. Not sure why we didnt qualify for a bottle of wine like everyone else but the eggs bread and butter were appreciated.
