Bear of Rodborough Hotel

Perched high on Rodborough Common with sweeping views of the Cotswold countryside, The Bear is a former 17th-century coaching inn full of character. With its cosy nooks, roaring fires, and vast open spaces right on the doorstep, it’s a charming retreat for walkers, food lovers, and those seeking a true taste of the Cotswolds.

Your Perfect Cotswold Wedding at The Bear of Rodborough Hotel

Perched on top of Rodborough Common, with endless views over the surrounding Cotswold countryside, you’ll find The Bear of Rodborough Hotel. Full of charming quirks, The Bear boasts a setting to remember for your special day, whether you’re planning something small and intimate or a traditional big white wedding! Dating back to the 17th Century, our former coaching inn has endless character with original stone archways and roaring log fires, not to mention a pair of friendly stuffed bears in reception. We share our home on Rodborough Common with some special grazing locals… a herd of free-roaming Belted Galloway cows! They are often caught peering in through the windows, so we hope you don’t mind a few extra guests…
