The Sheep on Sheep Street can be found nestled in the heart of the Cotswold town Stow-on-the-Wold. This 17th century building has had a few owners and changes in its time, and has recently undergone its most recent refurbishment. The new look sees a style of Cotswolds-meets-London, retaining a lot of its character and history, whilst injecting just the right amount of Soho chic. It’s rustic, quirky and colourful, and extremely welcoming.
Stow-on-the-Wold is a perfectly quaint Cotswold town that is ideally located for exploring the joys of the surrounding areas. The Sheep on Sheep Street provides a wonderful base to do just that, and with twenty-two en suite rooms, you’ll have your pick when it comes to choosing the perfect room for your needs.
When we arrived, we were warmly greeted by a friendly host, and shown to our room, which was located on the top floor. We were staying in a premium room that was located in what appeared to be converted attic space.
“The ideal country setting for your short break.”
The room itself was spacious and contemporary, although, in keeping with the rest of the building, offered a sneak into its history with its wonderful exposed beams. Another great feature of this room was the hydro-bath in the bathroom - it offered a wonderful relaxing experience after a day of sight-seeing.
The restaurant at the Sheep on Sheep Street is also a great space. The semi open plan restaurant-bar setting offers a long bar with a great drink selection, and the kitchen serves up delicious food all day. It’s also a lovely space to cosy up next to the fire with a good book; offering the ideal country setting for your short break.
We were impressed with our stay at the Sheep on Sheep Street. The hotel hosts a welcome escape from city life, with just the right amount of luxurious touches to make the transition so relaxing. We would certainly return, and likely will, with it being so conveniently located for a stay in the Cotswolds.
