The Stag at Stow

Stopped in for drinks. Friendly service . Sat in the bar which was very charming and warm. Ordered the pie for two. It was Steak and Ale pie that was accompanied by vegetables and mashed potatoes. It was fabulous. Best I’ve ever had. Then we decided to have the Sticky Toffee pudding. Also wonderful. This by far is the best place to eat in Stow.

Very pleasant meal and friendly staff , we’ve been here before and always enjoyed our visits , I had the venison and it was cooked to perfection , my wife had a selection of starters and sides as a main course and all were delicious , in particular the carrots with a creamy type dressing , the flavour was amazing , well done to all the front and back of house staff , a credit to the Stag

I was so looking forward to the experience of staying here. We had two rooms (1 for the adults and 1 for the older children) GOOD - Upon checking into the adult's room I was concerned as we were near the main door/laneway but it was very quiet and peaceful. - The kid's twin room in the next building was lovely and a good size. They loved their room and took plenty of selfies. - The Staff were welcoming and pleasant. - WIFI stable. - The pub was small but very pleasant AVERAGE - Maybe a shelf or somewhere to put a large suitcase. - Supply conditioner would be nice. - The venue's photos are like the rooms but there is some wear and tear you don't see and the rooms are quite small. - Neighbour bins were in the way of the carpark entrance. - Difficult to find rear carparks and def would not try in the dark. QUIRKY - Doorway and floor were all on an angle. - Short doorway SUGGESTION - Would have to have known more about the history of the buildings. Maybe a tour or history session or wall could be added.

Dirty room and so small, paid extra for another room, slightly bigger but still not worth the money. No storage for clothes and bathroom grubby, and very low water pressure for showers. Will never stop or recommend this hotel. Their excuses it's a old building is a poor response.

We book the potting shed every time we stay when we can we have stayed 8 times in all and always have had breakfast included. This time although at check in we were told breakfast is included, they failed to mention only continental was included! We Didn’t know until we checked out . We were over charged for the dogs , double charge and to be honest the cleanliness of the room was well under par ! The bathroom was dirty the carpets gritty and the tables chipped and dust and cobwebs all around. They seem to have neglected that room and at £180:00 a night it’s not good! We have decided not to return there so an average weekend of £700:00 has now been lost!

It’s the first time i have paid £250 per night for a room and been forced to have dinner elsewhere as the dinning room was fully booked?? No alternative offered & apparently no priority for residents. I have stayed at this hotel on business with colleagues on 6 separate occasions, there will not be a 7th
