Rooms at the Crown & Anchor

Pared back, properly comfortable

Our five rooms and the Stables combine pared-back style with honest creature comforts: excellent mattresses, fine linen sheets and luxurious bathrooms with 100 Acre Apothecary products, made locally in the Cotswolds from the very best natural botanicals and essential oils.
Each room is individually decorated with antique desks, stylish lighting and pictures, and each takes its name from a local farm.
