We had the most amazing time at The Dial House. The hotel was amazing, beautifully decorated, clean, very friendly & welcoming staff where nothing was a problem. In the evening it was cosy & welcoming with a roaring open fire. The tipi tent was beautiful & such a great idea. We will definitely be visiting again. Thank you for an amazing time The Dial House, we can’t wait to return

6/10 Good

No thanks
Tiny room. Couldn’t swing a cat. Tiny shower closet. No space for luggage. Overwhelming smell of air freshener, triggered my wife’s asthma. No service to speak of. Staff went home at 6pm and left guests to fend for themselves. No food anvail in evening although receptionist did recommend an excellent Italian restaurant. Eyesore of a rundown tepee in the garden totally not in keeping with the rest of this pretty village. On the plus side, a lovely building, central location, nicely maintained. The breakfast was very well cooked and waitresses have amusing Del Boy posh accent imitations. Overall, the smallest room I’ve stayed in for a very long time plus the lack of service and high price charged lead to 3/5 at best. I wouldn’t return.

The family room was perfect for our family and it is right in the heart of Cobham. Yet, the restaurant and rooms are slightly off the road which provides a bit more privacy and it is not noisy.

8/10 Very Good

Room a little too small
Only criticism we had was that the room and the bathroom were very small. A larger person would have had trouble being able to fit on the loo or in the shower. Also we would have liked two chairs in our room as we stayed for two days and it would have been much more comfortable to watch the Olympics not from our bed. Sitting up on the bed wasn’t very comfortable. We realise the room was too small for two chairs but we thought we had paid for more comfortable room than it turned out to be.

Nice hotel great location
Nice hotel. But could have done with some drawers in room and a decent hair dryer. Also would have been nice to be offered a hand woth luggage as the stairs were quite uneven.

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely old building, tastefully updated to serve as a good hotel. Excellent kitchen; both dinner and breakfast were tasty, imaginative and well served. Parking was tight but manageable. Despite numerous posted warnings in the bathroom about "VERY hot water" and "Towel rail will be HOT", the towel rail stayed cold throughout our stay and the basin water ran no more than warm. The shower was good, though, with plenty of hot water and pressure although it was very cramped for space. We still enjoyed our stay very much; this is a lovely property, very central, within easy walking distance of everything yet far enough from the main road for traffic noise not to register.

We loved everything about the Dial House. Its location in the center of Bourton on the Water made it easy to get around. We had 3 different rooms due to making reservations at different times & they were all comfortable & charming. The breakfasts were delicious & filling. I highly recommend The Dial house!

Fantastic stay and highly recommended
Location was fantastic. Located in the heart of Bourton-on-the-water, near a pharmacy, supermarket, restaurants and right by the River Windrush. We stayed at the Oscar Room which has a great view of the town and the river. Bourton-on-the-water was also a larger town with more amenities. The other town to consider staying in is Stow-on-the-wold. There are other nice little towns in Cotswold but will have to drive out to get anything else. The only thing is, the Hotels.com website indicated breakfast was included so we didn’t pay for a room with breakfast because there wasn’t this option. Overall, thank you for the lovely stay. Service was excellent with friendly staff.
