    The White Bear provided a pleasant stay with clean and spacious accommodations. The room was well-equipped with comfortable bedding, and the dining experience was impressive, featuring a well-prepared evening meal that exceeded expectations. The staff were attentive and ensured a seamless service during my visit, especially at breakfast which included a great variety of options.

    Some areas lacked thorough cleaning.

    cozy atmosphere
    fresh ingredients
    friendly staff
    narrow stairs
    noisy nights
    poor communication

    Spent 3 nights at The White Bear and really enjoyed the cozy atmosphere. The breakfast offered a nice variety, fresh ingredients made everything taste great. We had a lovely view from our room's bay window. the stairs to our room were pretty narrow and steep, which made carrying our luggage a bit tricky. One evening, we heard a lot of noise from the bar downstairs, but it quieted down after we fell asleep. I wish they had given us clearer info on breakfast hours. we missed it on our last day because no one mentioned the timings. The staff were friendly, but there was a bit of a wait when checking in.

    excellent breakfast
    spotless room

    would be happy to recommend for a two-day stay

    Friendly staff, excellent breakfast, free wi-fi in rooms, all contributed to a pleasant overnight experience during our two-day getaway, especially given the spotless double room with a private bathroom where we felt completely at home.

    Everything was exactly right.

    clean room but lacking atmosphere

    The staff provided outstanding service, always friendly and eager to help. The breakfast was above expectations, featuring a wonderful selection of fresh ingredients.

    The overall ambiance felt a bit dated.

    comfortable bed

    It was just a smart choice for a weekend in Shipston-on-Stour with reasonable value. The bed was very comfortable, which helped us rest well. A good tip is to ask for more coffee packets at check-in.

    Charming Stay with Delicious Lunch

    We enjoyed a one-night stay in a cozy double room. The highlight was the lunch at the pub. The beer-battered fish in a baguette was mouthwatering, paired with perfectly light onion rings. For an early night, consider checking the schedule for karaoke nights as it's lively.

    Had a blast with friends here! We enjoyed playing darts and checked out the beautiful cycling spots nearby. The staff was friendly and breakfast was tasty, with good options on the menu. Just remember that the stairs can be a bit tricky, but it's worth it for the atmosphere!

    Cozy and charming spot

    We had a lovely stay at this old pub. The room was surprisingly spacious and comfy! Caught a rugby match at the bar with some friendly locals, which was a blast. The breakfast was delish, especially the full English.
