Wonderful

Very helpful reception staff very welcoming and informative. Room was very clean and ready for us. Bar and restaurant staff were also excellent attentive. We had an excellent meal, the bill needed a bit of sorting out as the system had difficulty sorting out the normal menu and the offered special but got there in the end. We were with friends ( who used to be in the hospitality industry) and overall we were impressed. Thank you to all at The Bear we will be back

Have stayed here several times over a number of years - staff are lovely, food tasty and rooms comfy… stayed in the main house for the first time and although the room was lovely, it was directly above the bar so there was some noise - maybe worth considering if wanting an early night! Otherwise a perfect stay x
A lovely character venue with a great location to drive to the various Cotswold gardens that we visited.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Lovely room, very clean. Tasty evening meal, but shelves and window ledges in Library restaurant clearly hadn't been dusted for some time. Staff friendly and helpful.
Hotel was bustling when we arrived. Receptionust was fruendly and check in was smooth. Room was well furnished, if a little tired. Its in a great location and we had access to everything we needed. All in all a great stay.
We had the warmest welcome ever from reception here which was lovely.
They had kindly moved us to a better room to avoid being disturbed by a wedding they had.
The room was very comfortable and relatively recently refurbished.
Good and efficient breakfast.
Another good stay. Food was great. Just need to be aware that when weddings are on certain areas are out of bounds (particularly the outdoor seating area)
My stay at this property was comfortable and enjoyable. The hotel is large and has lots of classic country hotel character, plenty of parking with some excellent views across the Nailsworth valley.
