+ The best thing about The King's Arms is undoubtedly the staff, who are pleasant and efficient. The location was perfect for us, visiting Westonbirt Arboretum ( about 3 miles away). The bedroom was spacious, clean with plenty of hot water, a good strength shower, very good WiFi plus tea/ coffee making facilities( with real coffee bags- why don't all B and B establishments have these?) A comfortable bed made for a restful sleep. We ate in the dining room of the pub. Food was of a high standard and there was plenty of choice. We would definitely stay here again if visiting the area.

+ Quiet location and lovely bedroom. The evening meal was outstanding and the members of bar staff and the lady who showed me to my room was excellent.
− Sound proofing from the room above was poor (it is an old property so I understand this is tough to control), so when he got up to use the bathroom I was woken up. Breakfast is a late start at 7:30am, but I didn’t receive my pre-ordered food until 7:55am which meant I had to eat and run.
