Lower Slaughter Farmstay

Lower Slaughter is currently my pick for most picturesque village in England that I have seen so far. It is a very small village in the county of Gloucestershire located in the Cotswold District. Through the middle of the village flows the River Eye and from the flower covered banks you can watch the trout swimming in the crystal clear water.

At one end of the village next to the river is The Old Mill which is has a working (not all the time) undershot waterwheel. There is a small museum, craft shop and tearooms which are worth a visit. It is not as busy or touristy as the nearby popular Bourton-on-the-Water this is because there is no parking for the large tour buses which I think help keep the village's charm.

Top Lower Slaughter Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express Cheltenham by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, friendly staff"

Mollie's Motel and Diner

10/10 Excellent

"The room was great and cosy but what stood out most was the immense, incredible and unique service from the hosts - especially Daryl, who catered to me in desperate times of need. I was there with my production team, as we were shooting for a TV Advert and Daryl went out of her way to make sure we were accommodated and had everything we needed and more in abundance. We had an emergency situation with our kit, which was my error, but Daryl went out of her way to deal with the situation with a last minute contingency - she then helped me print out documents that I needed, which again I should've had sorted myself whilst also maintaining hospitable qualities through offering me drinks and checking I was okay. I couldn't have possibly asked for more. I know exactly where I would recommend myself and others if we were in the area. I would like to thank Daryl very much - what a absolute gem of a person."

De Vere Cotswold Water Park

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in one of the lakeside rooms which had a beautiful view. Room was slightly cold because of this but reception did provide us with an extra heater. It was my husbands birthday so they provided a gift and prosecco which was lovely. Food was great, lovely staff and clean hotel. Book ahead for the spa to avoid disappointment. "

The Slaughters Manor House

10/10 Excellent

"Most Wonderful Experience! Beautifully cared for and renovated manor house. Superb grounds, excellent breakfasts, bar with a nice feel and aesthetic. Our room was incredible. Unbeknownst to us, management upgraded our room to a garden suite, which took our breath away. The suite was huge and gorgeously appointed, as was the bathroom. We had a private patio with a firepit. Gracious staff ensured that we had firewood, tea, snacks…anything we needed. We will definitely be staying here again!"
