The Thames Head Inn is a great gem. It's about a 1 mile walk from the Kemble train station, I walked alongside the road since taxi service is scarce and had no problems. There aren't any other businesses nearby, so I ate dinner there as well (delicious) and paid for breakfast the next morning (also delicious). I hiked to the nearby source of the River Thames, which was neat to see. The room was clean, had a blackout curtain, and a private bathroom. The area was quiet overall and I didn't have any noise from my neighbors or the campers. Overall a really great find and I would definitely stay here again.

A great place to stay with an excellent menu.

We arrived on time for a warm and very informed welcome. Booked in, key, restaurant booking and we were in our room in no time. The food and restaurant were excellent. Breakfast was entertaining as the chef was the waiter but that made for a warmer and more welcoming atmosphere.

Wow what little gem in the Cotswolds. The accommodation was cosy but very nice. Could do with a bit more airflow on hot days/nights but apart from that fantastic. The inn has a great menu. Serves great ale and very friendly. Food was superb! Breakfast was good traditional English cooked breakfast. Would recommend Thanks for a lovely short break

Simply beautiful surroundings of the Cotswolds! This little B&B is more than that. The rooms are so cosy and more like little cottages. The pub and restaurant attached to this place are an ideal addition to this great stay. Electric hookups for caravan and camper vans too! Fabulous!

No shower in the en suite bathroom was disappointing - just a shower head on the taps. But the food was perfect and the staff super friendly, helpful and professional.

The kitchen closes by 8:30 pm and I recommend that upon check-in the staff ask whether the guest would like to order breakfast for the next morning, because there is none if not ordered in advance. I haven't seen such an antiquated shower in years. A simple shower curtain would be a move in the right direction.

Perfect place for a night

I was hiking the Thames Path and stayed here prior to embarking on the trail. The place is charming with a typical pub aesthetic, comfy room, good food and drink and all well priced. What made it stand out was how friendly and helpful the staff were. I would definitely return!
