Less than 50 meters away lies little brother the BULL. Originally, the BULL was a 'coaching inn' - a place where tired horses could rest for a while to prepare for their next journey. Not that much has changed, because nowadays the BULL is a hotel where working horses can rest before they have to go back to work. This is perfectly possible in the comfortable and beautiful rooms. Powder colours on the walls, soft beds and rain showers. When booking, check whether the room you want to choose is really pet friendly is, in some rooms animals are not allowed. In the rooms where they are welcome, a bed and dog biscuits are provided.

At The Fish Hotel guests feel like fish in water; completely at home. Whether that place is a tree house, hilly hut, hideaway hut or 'regular' room does not matter. Staying at The Fish feels a bit like staying in a fairytale village. The village (the term hotel is not comprehensive enough for this place) is located on the Farncombe Estate near Broadway. If you are done with the clay pigeons, bow and arrow or axes (no shortage of organised activities) you are back in the civilised world in no time. Those who prefer to hang out in a zen bubble can do so in the Zen at House Spa. Fishing is not possible, but eating fish is; at restaurant The Hook. Hot dogs are served at the bar, and instead of afternoon teas they serve savoury tipsy teas.

The Old Stocks Inn is located in the heart of Stow-on-the-Wold, on the village green where convicts used to be punished. In 2024, things will be a lot more pleasant in this village near Upper and Lower Slaughter. Also in the recently renovated 17th century coaching inn, which is run by a family who have thought of every detail and, together with a number of friendly staff, keep things running. The inn has two restaurants where you can dine and have an even better breakfast. English Breakfast with all the trimmings. If you don't like that, there is also a continental option.
