New Inn

The Cotswolds


The jasmine-clad 16th-century New Inn, 2.5 miles southeast of Bibury, offers 15 spacious and atmospheric bedrooms divided between the main pub building and a neighbouring cottage. Idiosyncratic contemporary stylings include bold colours, fluffy throws, smart furnishings and the odd free-standing bathtub, while the pub itself, with its exposed beams, is great. Weekend rates soar in summer.
