Good location, 5 minute walk into Bourton. Room was clean and cosy,, bed was comfortable, slept really well Breakfast was delicious Had a Sunday roast and it was superb The staff were all really nice and friendly and helpful

Their pictures show an open fire lit and chairs so you could sit by the fire, which was the main reason i booked the Mousetrap as we love a real fire so was disappointed to find out the bar area is not like that at all its more of a restaurant and the fire was never lit even though it was February and cold. Probably would have sat in the bar in the evening if it had been cosy with the fire on The room was clean and tidy but a bit tired, could do with a makeover

We booked b&b. Room was lovely, warm and clean. Breakfast was excellent and we decided to have our evening meal at the inn also, which was very nice indeed. Bourton is a lovely place to visit and the Mousetrap Inn is very close, just a 4 minute walk.

Breakfast was very good, always lively, Toni was an excellent host serving us well and giving us local info, places to visit, we were able to add some indoor info to her list of places as weather was challenging, a lot of rain… Excellent 801 hourly bus service between local villages meant we could leave car parked at Mousetrap and explore local markets and villages Enjoyed couple of main meals here, good quality tasty food, Rich was our host in evenings, also checked us in on arrival and was brilliant at squeezing us in for last minute food table, keeping us entertained and after referring with Michelle, accommodating us with a table to sit and relax for the evening twice with just a drink when weather turned against us. Thank you everyone for making our stay a good one on our second visit with you! Albeit our last one was approx 20 years ago, different set of staff and owners but same ambience exists, had another great week

Rooms are small to relax in if wet weather hits only a small seating area on landing. However hosts are very good at trying to accommodate you with one of the tables in side room of bar, they did for us 2 evenings

It was an authentic stay in an old English cottage. The rooms were reimagined & converted into single rooms and were charming. Small, but expected. The town of Bourton-on-the-Water was our favorite in all of Cotswold. Restaurant was nice as well and the free breakfast was from the menu and cooked to order. Staff, which were different each day, were all professional and very friendly. Would stay there again

Parking was tough if returning to your room during restaurant hours. Just parked on the street until a slot near the room came open. Not really a complaint just a comment.

The positives were the great staff and food, the location was great for everywhere we wanted to visit such as Hawkstone brewery, the car museum and the model village. The negatives, for us, the room wasn't particularly clean. Specifically, the floor hadn't been vacuumed or mopped,it was gritty and dirty. But our main concern was having a member of staff sitting directly outside our ground floor room, next to the front door, smoking, and the cigarette butts being left on the floor. Obviously, if you have a room above the bar and restaurant, this wouldn't be a problem.

On arrival the greeting of the brambling brook was a very welcoming surprise. Mousetrap a cute as in the picture books. Staff very welcoming, happy and pleased to greet us. Comfortable, small but our picking and everything we needed. Delicious evening meals. Bed cosy ... breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The pleasant walk into city centre very beautiful, we lucked in for a sunny day and a very pleasant early morning walk for me was a special treat. Found a walkway that took me round the back of home with the water at my side all the way and out I popped in the heart of the city centre and the bridge over the brambling brook again. Magical.

Leaving ...

the pub is lovely, great location, wonderful food, we had evening meal and breakfast and both were great. The staff were all friendly and helpful.

When we checked in, the rooms were not configured correctly, had booked a twin and a double and they were both set up as doubles. It was sorted on request. But we were in the rooms behind the pub, by the car park and they felt rather overpriced. The rooms were small, tired and more like a cheap motel, with loads of cigarette butts all over the ground outside and the smells and sounds of the kitchen next door, for the princely sum of £150 per room 😳 I know the location affects the price, but I've stayed in home counties country house hotels for less.

Great location, a short walk into town. We did a lovely circular hike in the area, beautiful countryside.

Limited car parking spaces. The chair in our room was broken and you couldn't use it. The bathroom door wouldn't shut as the top hinge was nearly off the door frame. The lock to the room door was very loose and looked like it had been forced open at some time as the frame was cracked. It has a bar but no place to sit and enjoy your drink unless you have booked a table at the restaurant. You will need to take your drink upstairs to your room or drink outside.

Roast dinner was lovely as well as the breakfast very friendly staff was welcomed by a lovely lady who was very accommodating The mousetrap had lovely decor and was very inviting with a relaxed atmosphere would stay again , we stayed in room 11 which looked like it had just been refurbished to a nice standard that suited the character of the property

Parking was an issue as there is only a very small car park to the property which was full at the time , we managed to park at the British legion a bit further along the road which was assured by the mousetrap that it would be fine to do so until the morning , unfortunately when we went back to our car the following morning we was approached by a man from the British legion who wasn’t happy about us doing so we did explain that we was staying in the mousetrap and had payed the parking charge according to what it states , but he said that we shouldn’t have stayed overnight but would speak to the mousetrap about it , this incident did not in any spoil our stay at the mousetrap or bourbon on the water which is very enjoyable

Breakfast , room, and dinner all amazing, just one let down was the cheese board which sadly had a selection of two cheese , both of which were blue cheese ,one of which was was very salty. A slightly different selection would have been nicer. The crackers were lovely and a nice touch with shaped apple...very pretty.

The parking situation . If on the website you could put, where there is available parking it would take the hassle out of riding around. Not knowing the area and nearly every street having double yellow lines became a bit frustrating. The huge overnight carpark has plenty of parking, although it was a little expensive.
