Welcome to The Beckford, a beautiful 18th century Cotswold pub in the village of Beckford, near Tewkesbury. Newly refurbished, expect cosy interiors, traditional pub charm and open fires inside, with spacious beer gardens and a heated pergola terrace outside.
With 12 boutique bedrooms full of comfy furnishings and personal touches, we offer the ideal base for exploring the delights of the Cotswolds, and easy access to Cheltenham, Stratford upon Avon, and the M5.
Our kitchen team is passionate about creating exciting seasonal dishes and pub classics with quality local produce and ingredients, supported by our very own kitchen garden. Behind the bar it's all about our award-winning Butcombe ale and cider, and a great wine list.
If you're planning an event, big or small, we'd love to hear how we can help. Our garden marquee is perfect for large weddings and events, while our private dining room offers an impressive space for smaller gatherings
