Craven Arms Inn

Hidden away at the end of a village driveway a few miles from Cheltenham, this beautiful 16th-century Cotswold inn is full of warmth and character. Landlords Bob and Barbara Price have worked hard to build their trade through well-kept real ales and menus built on high-quality seasonal ingredients. You can cook your own meat or fish at the table on hot grill stones; or choose specials such as whole baked camembert to start, followed by pan-fried duck breast with potato purée and green peppercorn sauce. A beer festival is held in the summer.
