A favourite of ours. On foot it’s probably just over 30 minutes’ walk through the countryside, or about 5 minutes’ drive by car, in Bourton-on-the-Water. Much more of a pub feel, and great food (though worth booking a table if you wanted to eat). They are also currently offering click and collect service on their food menu!
