I recently visited The Kitchen at Feldon Valley and overall had a pleasant experience. The food was really nice – well-prepared, tasty, and clearly made with care. The menu offers good variety, and the pricing felt very reasonable for the quality served. The environment is lovely, with a warm and relaxed atmosphere that makes it a great spot to unwind and enjoy a meal. However, the service was quite slow and at times felt a little disjointed waited 5 minutes between a diet coke and a glass of wine being brought to the table. Long wait for the dessert order to be taken I asked for one of port's however they did not have that one and was left to look at the menu to choose another however the waitress never returned and then deserts were brought by this time I had lost interest and this cost them the order of a further drink. While the staff were polite, the overall flow could definitely be improved to match the quality of the food and setting. That said, I would still return, as the food and atmosphere make it worthwhile.

We’ve stayed here multiple times and it’s been exceptional every single time. The staff are genuinely some of the nicest people you’ll meet. The catering is incredible, and they’ve always been so thoughtful about our halal dietary requirements, even actively sourcing halal food ahead of our visits. A truly cosy, special place in the Cotswolds.

Myself and my partner had a lovely one-night stay at Feldon Valley for my birthday after discovering it on TikTok. I would highly recommend this hotel if you’re looking for a relaxed, chilled break. It was incredibly peaceful and had such a zen atmosphere. The food was lovely, the service was great, and we had the best time. We can’t wait to return next year thankyou 🥰
