Booked very late for a Sunday lunch with partner’s 93 yr old mother. They fitted us in and went above and beyond to make us welcome. Food was delicious, staff lovely and everything went like clockwork. The guy in charge was very much ‘in charge’, but in a friendly way, that just insured every thing got done right. Love Butcombe Inns but this was a real treat made special by the staff.

We booked 2 single rooms, when we arrived were told pub was closed on Mon and tues , this was not mentioned in the website but has since been updated had we known this we would not have booked We came down for eve meal , no special and only a vegan meal or roasts , we reluctantly had the roast, I had chicken which was ok but spuds and veg obviously been under hot plate for many hours, my mate had the pork which was chewy and soggy The shower in my room was mouldy and did not work and my mates worked but was cold , my window was rotten too We booked for 4 nights but checked out after 1 , contacted the head office hoping for some sort of refund but no luck Very very disappointed

This used to be one of our absolute favourites for Sunday lunch. Sat in front of the fire with a glass of wine and waiting for our delicious lunch to arrive from the kitchen. Bit disappointed to find the old landlords had moved on, the on tap beers now all Butcombe and the fire not lit so the pub was pretty cold. Dinner arrived. Belly pork was actually very good. But the “crackling” wasn’t edible. The roast potatoes had obviously been sat for a while and and were dry and tasteless. The cauliflower cheese had no browning on top. For £22 it was a bit sad really. The dessert was lovely though. And the staff were super as always. But I don’t think we’ll be going back. That lovely cosy pub and comforting Sunday roast feeling just isn’t there.

Travelling locally and we've never tried The Kings Arms. Pulled in for lunch. Plenty of parking and a very attractive establishment. Staff, service and lunch were all excellent. The garden is well kept and bar / restaurant very cosy. We will go again. Thank you

We booked this pub as we were going to westbirton arboretum 5 minutes away. The pub is a nice location for a drink, and the staff were pleasant and helpful, but the food was very disappointing. Definitely not a destination pub for food. Shame.

Loved the look of the pub and rooms from the photos but it was in need of a serious refurb especially the bathroom. On arrival was asked if I wanted milk which wasnt on hand so was told she would bring some up which didn't happen. No shower gel in the bathroom. Dinner was good and service ok but no more. At breakfast I wasn't made to feel welcomed by the host. I ordered toast which never arrived with my eggs florentine. I have regularly stayed in Gloucestershire over the last two years and revisited several pubs and hotels. This is my first negative review and I would not stay here again
