"Charming inn right at the heart of Bourton-on-the-Water. It was a short walk to the shops and pubs/restaurants of the town. Chose it because it had a room that would accommodate three ladies on our little tour of the Cotswolds. Our room had two separate bedrooms, one with a large bed and then another with two twin beds. Bathroom was updated and roomy with a full tub and shower. Would be perfect for a family also. The inn was built in 1698 and has historical charm, but was nicely renovated....

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Lower Slaughter?
The best area to stay in Lower Slaughter is within the village itself, particularly around the River Eye and Copsehill Road.

Lower Slaughter is a small, picturesque village known for its honey-coloured limestone cottages and the gently flowing River Eye, which meanders through the centre. The village is compact and easily explored on foot, with much of the activity centred around the historic mill and the area surrounding Copsehill Road, often cited as one of England's prettiest streets.

This village is ideal for couples seeking a tranquil and romantic getaway. The quiet lanes, historic architecture, and scenic riverside walks provide a peaceful backdrop for relaxation. You'll find a few quality guesthouses and a hotel offering a high standard of comfort and service, superb for a special occasion.

For those looking for a slightly more active stay while still enjoying the village's charm, properties closer to the walking paths that connect Lower Slaughter to Upper Slaughter are a great choice.
When is the best time to go to Lower Slaughter?
The best time to visit Lower Slaughter is during the late spring (May to June) and early autumn (September to October) when the weather is pleasant and the crowds are smaller.

Late spring offers mild temperatures and the countryside is in full bloom, making it ideal for walking along the River Eye or exploring the village's quaint streets. You'll find fewer visitors compared to the peak summer months, allowing for a more relaxed experience at popular spots like the Old Mill.

Early autumn provides comfortable weather for outdoor activities, with the added beauty of changing foliage. The summer rush has subsided, meaning you can enjoy the village's charm and the surrounding Cotswold landscape in a more tranquil setting. This period is particularly good for couples looking for a peaceful getaway.

While summer (July and August) is also popular, it can be busier with more tourists.
