Thyme

What a fantastic choice of location and a new experience for me. WOW!!. stunning location, simply beautiful. The biggest highlight was the young lady who served us. Truly remarkable and her engagement was second to none. having worked in hospitality for over 40 years, I appreciate great service, this was a step above. I complimented her to the Rest Manager, her attention to detail and ability to up sell first class. The atmosphere was perfect, a gentle buzz of activity but beautifully calm and professional. The food was equally fantastic and delicious, we chose Partridge and Beef, both cooked and presented beautifully. I cannot wait to return. Thank you for a lovely evening. Charles

Firstly the positives…..Lunch in the garden on the day of arrival 10/10 - outstanding food and service (congratulations to James a real star and a credit to your company) Dinner at the Swan - once again food, ambiance and service 10/10 Room ( Room 6) Yes a little on the small side but as the hotel states “Cosy” 10/10 Pool - great temperature and again spot on service 10/10 The linen & towels across the pool/spa/room deserve a mention ……white white & soft, like brand new Small issue with a breakfast charge that was rectified by Management upon informing. It’s not cheap hotel by any standards but the grounds, settings and overall amenities made the experience of staying here memorable. Found all staff to be very friendly and welcoming

I want to share how our evening to celebrate our sons birthday, at the beautiful Ox Barn at Thyme, Southrop turned into the absolute perfect dinner! Have to say not only was the food divine but we were superbly looked after by James who masterfully balanced friendly chat with attentiveness when required. Five stars from us all!

Thyme is incredible. Immaculate from start to finish. A truly superlative experience. The way that the natural world is infused in every part of the place is really inspiring. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed 2 nights at this lovely and expansive property in the Cotswolds. The rooms are scattered throughout small houses on the property but nothing is far away from the main house with the reception and dining area. Each room is uniquely decorated with garden theme wallpaper and period furniture. We loved ours with the garden views and comfortable bed. The bathroom was perfectly fine with the shower was with a tub that had a high step to enter so it would be a challenge for some. I know there are other options within the property. The owners have done a splendid job of making the common rooms feel modern and well decorated with sheep stools and benches throughout and lots fun artwork. The restaurant is a large open room and there are also dining options outside this room is weather permits. The menus offer fresh, carefully prepared foods. Service can be a little slow if they’re busy. I did not try the spa but others in my party did and said that the services were wonderful. There is an outdoor pool with full service bar for a relaxing break in the day. Be sure to check out the kitchen gardens which are located about 1/4 mile from the main house. The gardens throughout the property are very well maintained and the gardeners are happy to answer questions with a smile. Well done, Thyme! Thank you for a wonderful visit.

We stayed here recently and had a wonderful stay. The Hotel is delightful with stunning grounds. The bedrooms are located in several different buildings dependent on room category. We ate at the Hotel and also the pub, we did encounter a couple of issues with dinner but they were dealt with perfectly. The pub was outstanding and such amazing staff! There is a fabulous Spa and outdoor swimming pool as well. Our Bedroom was amazing and very comfortable. Would definitely recommend staying . Great location to explore the area as well.
