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.

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.

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 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

Stunning Location, Fab food

Overall the stay was good, however the bed was a big letdown for us as the individual pads that made the mattress moved and we ended up sleeping in a hole.

Brilliant, would come again!

Hosts were super friendly and helpful. Pod was cosy but had all the facilities necessary for a fab couple of days with 2 adults, 2 teenagers and 2 dogs. Only downside was TV signal was weak so couldn't rely on that for entertainment...

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.
