welcome to the swan inn at swinbrook

"A boutique Cotswolds Inn on the banks of the river windrush."

What is it that makes the perfect English village? There’s no doubt a traditional pub is every bit as important to its character as the church, cricket pitch or surrounding countryside.

Here at The Swan Inn, we have many regular local customers from Swinbrook and the surrounding area, but are delighted to welcome visitors from much further afield, who are looking to share in a unique experience. Whether you want to escape for a quiet evening drink, are looking for fresh, locally-sourced food or want to make use of our beautiful Cotswold accommodation as a base for exploring Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds, you’d be hard-pressed to find a more idyllic location.

A short distance from the picturesque town of Burford, yet a million miles from the bustle of the tourist trail, The Swan is the perfect place to relax, socialise and renew old acquaintances. We like to think of this Cotswolds country inn as a ‘bubble’ – somewhere you can tuck yourself away from the pressures of the outside world.

Welcome to the bubble! ... play movie. 

This is the dreamy cotswold gastropub serving award winning restaurant food by the River Windrush, that you are always hoping to find but rarely do. With the ducks and bantams wandering freely around you, you really feel the real heart of the countryside.

We feature in the Michelin Pub Guide and the Good Pub Guide 2011 and welcome everybody including walking parties and cyclists wishing to explore well known local routes from our centrally located Cotswold Pub.

We recently celebrated 5 years of running this legendary Burford Pub and if you would like to read the reviews that we have collected from the national press over the years you can visit our blog.

The Swan Inn is a wonderful Cotswolds Inn and boutique Burford Hotel
