A good Cotswolds B&B is hard to beat. A stone farmhouse or village cottage, a proper cooked breakfast, hosts who actually know the area and will tell you where to walk and where to eat. The trouble with most “best B&B” lists is that they are years out of date, full of places that have since closed or turned into holiday lets. We keep this one short on purpose and only list B&Bs we have checked are still open and still taking guests.

Guiting Guest House, Guiting Power
A 17th-century Cotswold-stone farmhouse in the middle of Guiting Power, one of the quietest and most genuine villages in the northern Cotswolds. Under new owners since 2024, it is an adults-only B&B with beamed, individually styled rooms and a cooked-to-order breakfast. The village has two pubs, a cafe and a farm shop within a short walk, so you can leave the car and settle in. It also sits on the Guiting Power to Naunton walk.

Lowerfield Farm, near Broadway
A working farm B&B set in Willersey Fields, a couple of miles from Broadway, with views across to the Cotswold escarpment and Broadway Tower. Eight en-suite rooms, a licensed bar and a proper cooked breakfast, run by hosts who know the area well. Good for walkers on the northern Cotswold escarpment, with easy access to Stratford-upon-Avon and Chipping Campden too.

The Old Post Office, Adlestrop
A 17th-century house in the small village of Adlestrop, a few miles from Moreton-in-Marsh. Adlestrop is famous for Edward Thomas’s much-loved poem of the same name, and the village is as quiet and unspoiled as the poem suggests. The B&B has just two comfortable bedrooms, original features alongside modern comforts, and afternoon tea on arrival, so it feels more like staying with friends than checking in.

Mill Cottage at Ash Farm, Stow-on-the-Wold
A B&B room in a converted 19th-century barn at Ash Farm, a working farm just outside Stow-on-the-Wold in the rolling country towards Bourton-on-the-Water and Northleach. Private bathroom, garden views and a quiet, rural setting, with the farm’s own grounds to walk. Note this books as “Mill Cottage”, one room among several self-catering cottages on the same farm, so it is the specific one to link, not the farm generically.
