I was driving home from Bristol and my sat nav took me through back roads to avoid several accidents on the M5, it was late and getting dark, I nearly got run off the road by a crazy driver and I pulled over in the parking lot of Morrisons in Nailsworth and got on booking.com to find somewhere. The Burleigh Court hotel came up and it was sort of close and looked safe so I went and man am I happy I did. Finding the property was hard but worth it. The coach house I was settled into was a haven and the lady at the front desk greeted me like family. I felt immediately cared for.

I had to leave and I arrived so late in the evening. I wish I could have stayed to enjoy the property more.

The surroundings are fantastic. We went for a long walk in the area and the hotel provided us with a helpful map. The food was very good! We were very pleased with our hotel room.

The cleanliness could have been better. Empty glasses everywhere. The pool was far from clean. A possibility to buy lighter snacks from the bar would have been appreciated since stores are far away. Also a heads-up that you need to pre-book taxis when leaving would have been good, it seemed like they weren’t used to people not coming in their own car.

Delightful welcome from very interesting lady at reception. Beautiful bedroom (lovely garden view), restaurant, lounge, bar etc. Astonishingly delicious, artistic evening meal - certainly Michelin standard, with excellent attentive service. Charming, cosy furnishings, wall art, etc. Welcome warmth throughout the hotel on a cold day. Sauna terrific (more lights please). Overall: excellent standards, very carefully thought through but with a light touch & consistently managed. Could hardly have been better. Thank you so much

Our stay at the Burleigh Court Hotel exceeded the (already high) expectations we had for our trip to the Cotswolds. The location is stunning, the staff was very friendly and helpfull with good suggestions for local activities and places to go to. The gardens and many places to sit are superb. We can highly recommend this hotel for your trip to the Cotswolds

Building is beautiful. Room was fantastic. Choices on furniture and decoration were very good. Staff were all very friendly. The food at the hotel was excellent, including the breakfast and dinner. The dining room is a beautiful wood-panelled room with lovely views over the local area. Very romantic in the evening.

Very little to NOT like.

The surroundings and views are superb, the gardens and different areas magical, the pool a little gem; there is great attention to details throughout the property, inside and out. I very much liked the Italianate theme and winks to the 1920s. Wendy, at front desk, and Jonathan (everywhere!) were very helpful and cordial. I enjoyed the food, and the gluten-free options were nice. Afternoon tea was a lovely a mix of traditional and ... Italian, enjoyed on the terrace with stupendous views.

Some of the staff were not so pleasant (at breakfast) and some were inexperienced, but nice. The location really requires a car. The taxi situation in Stroud, from the train station, is impossible. Wendy was most helpful, sending a very kind sous-chef to the rescue, otherwise I'd have been stranded. The train station is hard to negotiate with larger luggage, with two flights of stairs to negotiate to go up over the tracks and down on the other side in order to exit. I do not recommend going by train with anything other than light luggage, and do reserve your taxi well ahead of time. There are supposed to be some, but they are not always there, as happened in my case.

Fantastic hotel in the Cotswolds. Just what we wanted in a lovely location. The breakfast was great and the chefs were very accommodating to us being vegan. Spa facilities were good, however I don't think we realised that the pool was unheated till we got there!

Honestly nothing, it was just what we wanted for a weekend in the countryside.

A perfect evening, with inventive and delicious food, especially the crab on crumpet and the Cote de Boeuf, which was perfectly rare, very tender and it had the most wonderful beefy flavour. The service was quite exceptional and the servers had all the time in the world to help us and be friendly. We could not eat the whole mountain of beef, so our server put the remains in a waxed box and it was just as good the next night.

The bathroom was tired and the lighting for the sink- for shaving, etc- was very poor both in amount and in quality of light

The staff were amazing and the location was stunning. They were accommodating until the early hours and made sure everyone had an amazing experience. The rooms were beautiful and the wine and cigar selection was more than adequate

The plantbased / vegan options could have been much better. It was limited to one choice per course and they were quite rich. That was the only negative comment I have about the whole experience. Hopefully this gets better soon.

I didn’t have the breakfast. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The position of the hotel is amazing. It is very dog friendly.

There wasn’t a fridge in the room. The pillows weren’t very comfortable and I feel needed to be replaced. There wasn’t a usable plug for the bath, so only a shower was available. There was a large crack in the basin in the bathroom.
