I was visiting my aunt who has lived in the village for over fifty years and so she has seen many different landlords of this pub. She hadn't been for a while and was pleasantly surprised. The Royal Oak is a good size pub, tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. We were warmly welcomed and attended to. We enjoyed our Cumberland sausage and mash and wonderful fish and chips. Everything seemed to be made to order (a nice change from some pub chains which seem to have a list of processed and microwaveable food) and was delicious. I had tried to look on TripAdvisor for this pub but I saw the food theme as Asian and Thai. This seems to be an old description and is no longer accurate. There is...
We stayed here for a week, using it as a base whilst visiting the Cotswolds. It was a lovely place, the staff were all so welcoming and pleasant by the time we left it was as though we'd been friends for ages! The breakfast was freshly made to order with a good choice. The evening menu was small, but we ate there a couple of times and the food was delicious. The only reason I can't give a 5 is because the room we were given was right above the bar and was very noisy until very late, and the outside lights were on each side of the window and weren't turned off til gone midnight! However when we asked to move they happily obliged without a second thought. So just request to not be given room 3...
Two of us called in recently for a pint and a spot of lunch following a walk around the Bredon countryside. The pub is a proper one offering a couple of pub games (darts and toad-in-the-hole). There is a range of good beers and the ones sampled were on form. The food was tasty and well presented and hit the spot. We were both impressed on how clean the pub was throughout, especially the toilets which can sometimes be a nasty shock, even in the nicest of venues. The young couple running it were charming and are determined to make the pub an important part of village life, with activities to entertain while you enjoy a drink. It's heartening to see a move like this against the trend of closing...
This hotel is a quaint old pub with a very bubbly and pleasant landlady, Sophia. She was a delight to talk to and was happy to help with anything very impressive for a young lady running a pub/hotel. The ales available were great for me, especially Rev James goes down very well! The bedroom was clean and with a big comfortable double bed. Plenty of extras and the shower was great. The breakfast was just wow! a big plate full and very tasty indeed. I didnt get to sample any other meals but have no doubt would be of the same high standard. You would not be disappointed when visiting this pub/hotel, either for a drink, meal or accomodation. I wish Sophia all the very best in her endeavors with...

We pitched up rather late for lunch but received a warm welcome from Nicola who was happy to offer lunch. The pub was fairly empty which was lovely for Crackers (our rescue Puli) who has been feeling a bit stressed this week. She was indulged by Nicola who spoilt her with treats. We had a simple but very well cooked lunch. My beer, Rev James, was really good, one I had never had before. See photo. The pub is large with a number of old pub games I had never seen before: the Frog game and Toad in the hole. If we lived locally we would patronise this pub. Thank you.
As it said ‘the warmest welcome’. The staff could not have been more helpful and hospitable. Arrived at noon with my wet dog. Was treated to a towel and biscuits (the dog) and good beer and a great gammon dinner. Recommend this place highly!!
Rooms impeccably clean, full English breakfast a work of art, although I was stuffed all day. Love the old pub games. Noise from the bar until late but all quiet after that. Can't fault the staff. All good.
We stayed here on our long trip down to Cornwall. Fabulous place, excellent value for money and Sophia the host was brilliant… can’t fault it..

We spent two nights here and the hosts Richard and Sofia could not have been more helpful. Great value for money.
Friendly, welcoming and good cooking. Sophia keeps comfortable well decorated clean rooms and a helpful team.
