Horse & Groom

A stone pub on the hill above Bourton, the kind where dogs come in as a matter of course and nobody thinks twice about it. The cooking leans into proper pub classics, generous in portion and flavour, with desserts that earn their keep. Rooms upstairs make it a natural base for the Cotswolds, and the Michelin Guide has handed it a Bib Gourmand, which explains the locals filling the bar on any given evening.
