Tucked away in a peaceful spot in the Cotswolds, The Methuen is a historic pub that blends rustic charm with modern comfort. Known for its warm atmosphere, delicious food, and friendly service, it’s the perfect place to relax, catch up, or even host your next event.

Our nineteen beautifully presented bedrooms are filled with thoughtful touches to help guests feel right at home. From king-sized beds and stunning roll-top baths to rainfall showers, tea and coffee facilities, and Roberts radios, everything is designed for your comfort and relaxation.

Expect exceptional food and drink, as our kitchen team continues to hone their passion for seasonal and locally sourced produce, creating delicious twists on pub classics. With an all-day food offering, you can enjoy warming dishes and a pint of award-winning Butcombe beer after a walk through the surrounding countryside. Be sure to check out our walking guide for the best local routes!

Since our refresh, The Methuen remains the perfect venue for private events, business meetings, or celebrations. We offer a variety of beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces, with full venue hire available for larger occasions and weddings.

As the warmer months approach, our spacious garden is ideal for al fresco dining or soaking up some sunshine over a few pints. Our stunning location also makes us a favourite spot for local dog walkers and visitors to our charming town.

With the beautiful Georgian city of Bath just a 20-minute drive away and vibrant Bristol about 30 minutes to the west, you can enjoy the best of city and country life—exploring the cities by day and unwinding in our cozy pub by night.
