INN THE STICKS

A Collection of Cracking Country Pubs

Country pubs with great British hospitality.

INN THE STICKS

A cracking collection of characterful English country pubs, tucked away in villages on the edge of the Cotswolds and just minutes from Junctions 17 and 18 of the M4.

At Inn The Sticks, seasonal British cooking meets well kept ales, good wines and great British hospitality. Each pub has its own personality, but they all share the same idea: good food, good drinks, good people and somewhere you’ll want to stay a while.

At The Langley Tap, The Wellesley Arms, The Neeld Arms, The Bull and The King’s Arms, expect roaring fires when the weather turns, sun soaked gardens when it doesn’t, and menus that make the most of the seasons. Think hearty classics done properly, familiar favourites with a little twist and drinks worth lingering over.

From long, lazy lunches and celebratory suppers to legendary Sunday roasts and spontaneous pints at the bar, Inn The Sticks is made for time well spent. Come with friends, bring the family or bring the dog; all five of our pubs are dog-friendly.

Set amongst the countryside of the South Cotswolds and within easy reach of Castle Combe, Bath, Lacock, Tetbury, Westonbirt Arboretum, Badminton Estate and Highgrove, our pubs make the perfect stop when you’re out exploring or simply looking for somewhere good to eat, drink and settle in.

Proper pubs. Great food. Good drinks. Dogs welcome. A little bit of country.

INN THE STICKS — ENGLISH COUNTRY PUBS IN THE COTSWOLDS

Inn The Sticks is a small collection of proper English country pubs across the South Cotswolds, Wiltshire and Gloucestershire. We’re here for good food, good drinks, great British hospitality and those long lunches, lazy afternoons and evenings that somehow turn into one more drink.

Our pubs each have their own character, but share the same Inn The Sticks spirit — relaxed, welcoming and a little bit individual. From village pubs and country gardens to cosy bars, roaring fires and comfortable rooms, we like our pubs to feel like places you actually want to spend time in.

Our collection includes The Langley Tap in Langley Burrell, The Wellesley Arms in Sutton Benger, The Neeld Arms in Grittleton, The Bull in Hinton and The King’s Arms in Didmarton. Together, they make a great base for exploring the Cotswolds, South Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Bath, Bristol and the surrounding countryside.

DOG-FRIENDLY COUNTRY PUBS

Dogs are very welcome at all five Inn The Sticks pubs. We’re big believers that a day in the country is better with your four-legged friend along for the ride. Whether you’re stopping in after a countryside walk, settling down for lunch or joining us for a drink in the garden, there’s always a warm welcome for well-behaved dogs and their humans.
