The Horse & Groom in Upper Oddington is marvellous! I'd first visited about 6 years ago for dinner and was wowed by the food then. Returning in May 2023, with my husband, plus dad and his partner from Australia, I wanted to give them a great British pub experience and H&G more than delivered. There's new owners who thankfully were able to keep it open despite having just taken over when the pandemic hit (no mean feat given how many pubs/inns are closing in the UK). And they've retained everything that made this place great, whilst also bringing their own touches. We stayed two nights. Rooms are fully kitted out with great treats and amenities. The shower in Room 1 was small but the BEST shower I've had in years of hotel stays - great water pressure, temperature, and lovely smelling shampoo etc. Bed was super comfortable (a little small but nothing to complain about). Breakfast is included and it's delicious - hearty, good quality products and lots of choices. They even very kindly accommodated us being a few minutes later than usual because we had an early start visiting a nearby racehorse trainer's yards. We don't have a dog but it's dog friendly and there were a few in there at night, so worth dog owners considering a visit. Definitely worth eating (and drinking!) in the bar. The bar team are friendly, and most of clientele are locals with good recommendations for things to do and see in the area. The food was fabulous - again, great selection. One of our group loved the pork chop so much she had it two nights in a row! My highlights were the Asian duck salad starter, and the Burger which is huge. Horse & Groom Inn in Upper Oddington was a wonderful place to stay. I only wish I lived closer and could use it as an escape more regularly!
