The Kilcot Inn

The Kilcot Inn is a family-owned, independent country pub with accommodation located on the border of Gloucestershire and Herefordshire in the United Kingdom. Situated on Ross Road in Newent, Gloucestershire (GL18 1NA), the inn combines a traditional pub atmosphere with modern comforts. The building itself dates back to the 1690s, with a dwelling on the site since the 1530s, and was originally built by Thomas Davis. After falling into disrepair and becoming derelict, it was purchased by local businesswoman Mrs. Thomas and meticulously refurbished by the Thomas family, including Mr. Thomas, a builder, and her son. Today, the inn is known for its emphasis on tradition, offering great food with a unique twist, real ales, ciders, and an interesting wine menu focusing on quality and value. The accommodation comprises four beautifully appointed rooms, recently upgraded to 4* Gold by the AA, blending traditional oak woodwork with modern amenities. Guests can enjoy a delicious cooked breakfast, free Wi-Fi, and a peaceful night's sleep. The inn also features a beautiful Rose Garden and unique African Pods for al fresco dining, a large enclosed play area for children, and a dog-friendly bar area. The Kilcot Inn prides itself on sourcing all food and beverages from within a 50-mile radius, supporting local suppliers such as New Wave Seafood, Peter Cooks Bread, John Lewis Fine Foods, James Gourmet Coffee, Westons Cider, Wye Valley Brewery, and Bentleys Fruit Juice. The inn also implements eco-friendly practices, recycling all water through an on-site reed bed system. As a family-owned business, The Kilcot Inn continues to be a beloved local establishment, offering award-winning food and top-rated accommodation.

The Kilcot Inn has a long and varied history. The building was constructed in the 1690s, although a dwelling has existed on the site since the 1530s. It was initially built by Thomas Davis (born 1654). Over the centuries, the inn served the local community as a pub. In recent times, the building had fallen into disrepair and had become derelict. It was then purchased by a local businesswoman, Mrs. Thomas. The entire Thomas family, including Mr. Thomas, a builder, and her son, worked on the site throughout the refurbishment project, slowly restoring the inn to an excellent standard. They are now proud to offer award-winning food and 4* Gold rated rooms, and are thrilled to be the next chapter in the history of The Kilcot Inn. The inn continues to operate as a family-owned, independent business, focusing on tradition and quality.
