The Mousetrap Inn

We booked b&b. Room was lovely, warm and clean. Breakfast was excellent and we decided to have our evening meal at the inn also, which was very nice indeed. Bourton is a lovely place to visit and the Mousetrap Inn is very close, just a 4 minute walk.

Breakfast was very good, always lively, Toni was an excellent host serving us well and giving us local info, places to visit, we were able to add some indoor info to her list of places as weather was challenging, a lot of rain… Excellent 801 hourly bus service between local villages meant we could leave car parked at Mousetrap and explore local markets and villages Enjoyed couple of main meals here, good quality tasty food, Rich was our host in evenings, also checked us in on arrival and was brilliant at squeezing us in for last minute food table, keeping us entertained and after referring with Michelle, accommodating us with a table to sit and relax for the evening twice with just a drink when weather turned against us. Thank you everyone for making our stay a good one on our second visit with you! Albeit our last one was approx 20 years ago, different set of staff and owners but same ambience exists, had another great week

An easy and flat 3 minute walk from the village centre, this pub is a beautifully refurbished, traditional English pub. The food is delicious and we each thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal and breakfast. However what stood out was the customer service. It was exceptional. The staff were welcoming, helpful with advice, friendly and very hardworking when it got busy. We booked this last minute in an attempt to break up our drive home and didn’t expect much. Yet this turned into an incredibly memorable stay and I’d recommend it to anyone!

The positives were the great staff and food, the location was great for everywhere we wanted to visit such as Hawkstone brewery, the car museum and the model village. The negatives, for us, the room wasn't particularly clean. Specifically, the floor hadn't been vacuumed or mopped,it was gritty and dirty. But our main concern was having a member of staff sitting directly outside our ground floor room, next to the front door, smoking, and the cigarette butts being left on the floor. Obviously, if you have a room above the bar and restaurant, this wouldn't be a problem.

Great location, a short walk into town. We did a lovely circular hike in the area, beautiful countryside.
