Always have a pleasant stay . Food at inn lovely , staff friendly , nice room . Would recommend . Due to the change of weather twin room a little cold as the radiator next to one of the beds didn't really throw out the heat. On the plus side the red hot water from the bath was a welcome bonus .

An excellent stay at the Thames Head Inn!
I stayed in one of the four rooms at the back of the pub. Nice rural location with plenty of parking. Room was clean and comfortable, but the best aspect of the stay was the friendly staff and excellent food. Portions good, and the pub has a great atmosphere. Breakfast was freshly cooked to order and good quality. Would definitely stay again

This was our 3rd stay at the Thames Head, and as usual, we had an excellent stay. The staff are really friendly and chatty, the food is wonderful, with a large choice of dishes. Our room was very comfortable and quiet, good nights sleep. Would highly recommend a stay at The Thames Head anytime. Thank you.

We arrived about 4.30pm on a Friday in early October; a large car park with plenty of spaces free of charge. The staff check us in for friendly. Overall is a fair stay, I did feel cold throughout the night as believe the rooms were previously a barn conversion and heating was turned off until in the morning with the auto set up time. The shower over the bath was ok but could do a holder for the shower head as could not do anything unless put down the shower head and the tap water is not clear as that’s probably due to the pipes - maybe host can introduce something to prevent the lime scale coming through the taps? The room smelt clean- nice set up making your own hot drinks - I was glad there was a bottle of water to use as would not be happy if I had to use the tap water ( as mentioned above !) overall just a bit dated in areas requires repainting but otherwise is an okay average stay with my youth daughter in a double bed room with the bathroom for a night.

Reasonably priced, very pleasant accommodation
Thames Head is a characterful and welcoming place to stay. Our room was warm, clean, peaceful and comfortable. The food is unpretentious, but well-cooked very generously portioned. The pub is close to Kemble station, and it is only 10 mins drive from the splendid town of Cirencester. The shower-in-the-bath might be a bit tricky for the elderly or less agile, but it is very clean. An extra socket or two for phone-re-charging might be a good idea, but overall it’s a good choice for a stay.
