From the moment we arrived at The Vale Hotel, we were made to feel completely at home by the wonderful young owners. Their warmth and genuine hospitality set the tone for a perfect stay. Our room was absolutely gorgeous—beautifully designed, spotless, and incredibly comfortable. Every facility was impeccable, clearly cared for with pride and attention to detail. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we will definitely be returning. A truly fantastic stay from start to finish!

Bathroom too small, no space for our toiletries even soap in a shower . Bed was very uncomfortable. It seemed to be on an uneven floor and felt like one side of the bed was higher.

I was very happy with my stay. First it was good value and although there’s no on site parking, there was a free car park just around the corner. The staff were friendly and my room was a decent size, temperature and with a comfy bed/pillows. It was well equipped and had good water pressure in the shower. It was also clean. I also ate my dinner here and the steak was excellent.

Small but clean and friendly

We were only here 1 night for a party but the experience was a good one. Room was small but enough room to spend a night and was clean and comfortable. Loved the garden out the back and a good range of drinks were available. Cricklade is pretty and would definitely stay here again.

A quirky place. Mark is very friendly, but keeps a tight ship. It is small and he seems to be the hotel staff, so check in is exact: not before17.00 unless by asking. It is dog friendly, but only in 2 rooms. The highlight was the superb restaurant Jambo with a strong Kenyan influence. Outstanding There is also by repute an excellent Thai restaurant out the back, but unlike Jambo not dog friendly.
