Overview

The Inn at Fossebridge is a traditional Cotswold inn and pub located in the hamlet of Fossebridge, Gloucestershire, England, where the old Fosse Way drops into the valley of the River Coln. The building is described by the business as a traditional hostelry dating back to the early 17th century, and it sits in an area of outstanding natural beauty between Cirencester and Northleach. The inn operates as a combined pub, restaurant and small hotel, with seven en-suite bedrooms, some featuring four-poster beds or views over the water, and four acres of private riverside gardens. The offer is built around warm hospitality in a historic setting: rustic bars and restaurants with stone arches, flagstone floors, beamed ceilings, open log fires and exposed Cotswold stone walls. In summer, guests can dine al fresco in the gardens beside a section of the River Coln; in winter, the log fires and seasonal drinks such as mulled wine and hot chocolate take over. The kitchen serves what the inn describes as award-winning, locally sourced British food, alongside cellar cask ales and wines, and the pub is explicitly dog friendly. The inn is also positioned as a base for exploring the Cotswolds, with walks from the grounds to Stowell Park, Yanworth and the National Trust's Chedworth Roman Villa. It is a popular dining destination in the area and takes bookings by telephone, with gift vouchers available. The business is privately run and independent, with no parent company or group affiliation indicated in the available evidence. Its official website is innatfossebridge.co.uk, and its address is Fossebridge, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire GL54 3JS.

History

The Inn at Fossebridge is a traditional Cotswold hostelry whose building is described by the business as dating back to the early 17th century. It stands in the small hamlet of Fossebridge, Gloucestershire, at the point where the Roman road known as the Fosse Way descends into the valley of the River Coln, between Cirencester and Northleach. The location lies within the Cotswolds, an area of outstanding natural beauty, and the inn's grounds extend over four acres of private riverside gardens. Over time the property has operated as a combined pub, restaurant and small hotel, preserving many historic features: stone arches, flagstone floors, beamed ceilings, open log fires and exposed Cotswold stone walls. Its modern identity centres on hospitality, with seven en-suite bedrooms, some with four-poster beds or views over the water, and a food and drink offer built around locally sourced British cooking, cellar cask ales and wines. The pub is open daily from noon, with food served at lunchtime and in the evening, and it is known as a dog-friendly establishment. The inn is also marketed as a base for exploring the surrounding countryside, with walks from the grounds to Stowell Park, Yanworth and the National Trust's Chedworth Roman Villa. It is a popular dining destination in the Cotswolds and takes bookings by telephone, also offering gift vouchers. The available evidence does not identify founders, ownership changes or a parent group, and the business appears to be privately and independently operated. Its official website is innatfossebridge.co.uk.
