Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Limes enjoys a fantastic location, putting guests within a short walk of Stow-on-the-Wold's town centre. Guests often appreciate the clean and well-equipped rooms, which include fresh towels, toiletries, and tea/coffee facilities; some rooms, however, may require a stool to get into bed. A highlight for many is the included breakfast, while the gardens with fountains are often mentioned as a tranquil space to relax. The convenience of on-site parking is also a plus for exploring the surrounding area.

Wonderful Stay!

free parkinghelpful hostsconvenient locationwell thought breakfast

The free parking was super convenient! I found the location ideal for visiting the local area. The hotel was very clean! The hosts were friendly and helpful. The breakfast room was well thought out! I thought breakfast was more than what I expected. Our room was on the ground floor. I found that the interior design was just right. I was able to use the comfy lounge! The beautiful garden was a plus. I found a very short walking distance into the market square. Helen and Graham are lovely friendly hosts.

The garden was well maintained. Though there were many mosquitos, it was not a big deal!
