My Wife and I just had a three night break at The Bear booked through offpeakluxury.com.We had a pleasant enough room-smallish but very clean and obviously refurbished fairly recently.The food in the restaurant was fine but the room lacked atmosphere mainly due to the lack of customers.Also,the carpets could have done with a good vacuuming.All the staff seemed pretty indifferent... more

Easy to find and with great views on the drive to the hotel, we checked in to this luxurious old-English inn at the start of the annual Easter Beer Festival. No lager louts here, though - this festival was a celebration of all things English, with great local food, beer, music (folk and jazz) and friendly patrons and staff. We... more

Booked the Bear for a birthday surprise, guided by TA reviews. This is the closest we have had to its own description, have learned to manage our expectations from experience! The Bear is beautiful - clean, charming, 'olde worlde' and a lovely atmosphere. We booked on the website for one night with dinner and a supplement for a Deluxe room.... more

I suggest to drink a few glasses... more

The Super Sunday Saver is great... more

We stayed at this hotel for two nights from the 3rd & 4th January 2008. The hotel is quite hard to find, However if you follow the signs for Minchampton you will eventually get to Rodborough Common and easy to find from there. Situated, high in the hills and with beautiful scenery (weather permitting) There is ample car park space,... more

Have just returned from a two day New Year break at the Bear at Rodborough. Our room was large, warm, quiet, well furnished and spotlessly clean. Staff were extremely friendly, helpful and well trained. Special mention due for the General Manager, Donna (restauant manager) and Natasha (receptionist). Food was good too, and very well presented. Met many really nice people,... more
