We'll be back

The glamping pod was really cosy and the bed very comfortable for a good nights sleep. It was great to have an ensuite toilet and shower and the cooking facilities too. The pub staff were friendly and helpful, good real ales and tasty food. There's a good choice of local walks from the door too. All in all it was good value and we would definitely go back again.

Lovely pub and accommodation

Received a warm friendly welcome. The pod was great, exceeded our expectations. Luckily the pub had live music on the night we stayed, so a big bonus.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Was situated in a lovely quiet location, beautiful surroundings. Fully equipped pod and the resident little pigs kept my daughter entertained throughout our stay as she enjoyed watching them.

8/10 Very good

Although there was no one available at the promised 4pm check in time, we sat in the pub garden waiting for the pub to open. We assumed that the key left in the door in one of the pods was ours. We ate in the pub and enjoyed a very reasonably priced meal. The pod was ideal for a one night stay.

Great little stay

Great little stay at The Norman Knight - well sized and really well finished pods which have everything you need. Only downside was some of the local people were having a party on both nights of the weekend and the sound travelled quite a lot and was quite disturbing so something to be wary of. Cleanliness and location of the pods are great and all staff incredibly friendly.

Wonderful place to stay. I would just recommend the company to have more details in the folder about the pod. Wi fi code, Turning heating on Out of hours emergency number I must say the food and staff in the pub in front of the pods were amazing ❤️

Michelle, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Local area is beautiful. There was no communication re check in or check out. Only because we ‘bumped’ into a guy that was having his day off could we check in. POD was a little grubby.

Lovely stay, very nice people

The staff were very freindly, the pod we stayed in was lovely and clean and warm. The pub made tasty meals and had a cupboard with games in for kids

Great location for Cotswold Distillery Tour

We booked here as was nearest to our Distillery Tour and we were not disappointed. The Pod was superb and the Norman Knight was a great place to eat. We were warmly welcomed and as we were unable to book a taxi to our venue Emma offered to take us to the Distillery. We ate there in the evening and the food was great. Would definitely visit again
