This hotel is the only hotel in town, so the tourist season is very hot and the price is not cheap. However, in fact, in addition to the Arlington row room suitable for taking pictures, there is nothing to look at here. It may also be a few days ago comparing the hotels of Strauss and Chipping Campden. It feels like the Swan Hotel is more like the American country hotel, no matter the decoration of the house or the restaurant. Good service, breakfast is buffet + order, rich. Opposite the hotel is a trout farm that can feed fish and feed geese, as well as fishing and barbecue, suitable for bringing children to this pastime. It is also 15 km away from attractions such as Burton, Bird Park and Model Village.

We arrived early in the morning, in the hope we could leave our cases while going to explore! We were welcomed straight away when we walked through the door with a big smile! We instantly felt relaxed. The attention to detail doesn't not go unnoticed from the decor inside and outside to customer care. The staff are a total asset, They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and enjoy our stay. Breakfast had a fab selection of cold or hot options and was delicious 😋 . Dinner at the Crown was divine. (Did not want to share the apple crumble with my partner🤣) Our room had the same cosy wow factor as the rest of the hotel. Little touches like having the pantry and getting fresh milk delivered every morning, all add to charm of Wild Thyme and Honey. Thank you for such a lovely stay. We hope to visit again. Would recommend this hotel to anybody. We stayed in room 23, Watermill!

The town is quiet, the houses are beautiful, the vehicles are few, there are commercial streets and big supermarkets. The hotel has an independent courtyard, a private entrance to the room, ample parking space, complete facilities and cleanliness, sitting on a bench and watching the flower room 🦋🐝 flying. The restaurant is delicious in English and has a rich breakfast. The owner is enthusiastic and talkative: What is the weather like today? A cup of wine, a cup of tea, a wooden table and chairs outside the window...

The room layout pays great attention to details. There are complete facilities such as teapots and ironing boards. The breakfast options are also good. In the lobby, it is also a good pleasure to sit down and order a glass of wine or a cup of tea. You can find many kinds of food when you go out to satisfy your hometown appetite.

The hotel room, the bathroom and the breakfast would probably score a 4/5 but the basics let this place down. Day one - on check in the key card for the room wasn’t activated, down to reception to get sorted. Next it was discovered there were no bath towels in the room, back down to reception to get it sorted. Next it was discovered there were no pillow slips on the pillows, back down to reception to get it sorted. Bath is awesome, deep and copious amount of hot water. Had a good night sleep in a very comfy bed even though the room adjoins the lift shaft and there is a constant whine from the electric motor 24/7 (room 206). Day two - awesome shower. Down for very good breakfast; the only let down was a hair found on the plate. Mentioned to staff but didn’t make a big deal of it. It happens. On return to room late afternoon it was fount that the room had only been partly serviced. Beds made toiletries replenished but bin not emptied and no replenishment of milk, coffee and water. Back down to reception again to get it sorted. Could do this blindfolded by now. The staff have all been very kind and helpful in getting these issues sorted but these are basic housekeeping tasks that shouldn’t have to be ‘sorted’. It’s a pity as it is a big let down for us and the hotel. Still have tonight and tomorrow to go yet. At least I know the sleep will be good.
