A comfortable and popular local with stunning views across to Selsley and beyond make this well worth a visit. If only the plaudits could be found for the ale choice!

After many years, a change of management. A pleasant enough pub that serves well as a local with a more adventurous menu now for those that are eating. Maintaining a good choice of ales..

Like many pubs along the river, when it's winter there may be only one ale on, but in summer there could be up to three. The selection can be changed around a bit, with many breweries being featured over the year.

GL53 9NP
A cosy enough Wadworth establishment that has undergone a complete change. Always reliant on IPA and 6X and never anything 'challenging', the bar boasts four Wadworth ales now and something for everyone.

Extended from it's original tiny layout to accommodate a restaurant, the unique cosiness is still retained. If you're not in the lounge, though, enquire what ales are on as they're not always displayed in the bar.

GL6 8JG
A peaceful olde world country hotel in an idylic location that seems a lot more settled after a few turbulent years. Cuisine seems dominant but the ale choice is very worthy with up to four pumps lining the bar.

Good setting by the Cerney Lakes with garden, bar, lounge and restaurant. Two or three ales on offer, including local and even more adventurous beers on occasion; sadly not up to scratch for our tastes on our latest visit

One of the old fashioned country gems tucked out of sight but well known through its connection with the Sapperton Tunnel on the Stroudwater Canal. Nothing fancy, just how it was all those years ago. A Wadworth house but usually with at least one guest.

GL1 2PE
Winners of many CAMRA awards and after a bit of a blip, is recovering some of its former glory. An eye catching six or seven pumps available at the busier times of the week including many local offerings.

Not a particularly welcoming pub from the outside, but one that is near the top of our 'favourite' list. It's not for the nationally available standard servings we go, but to sample the guests. Always a surprise and always an excellent surprise.

GL6 6ND
Located in a prime position overlooking Painswick and the surrounding hills and now with a major extension and refurbishment. The down side of all that is it just doesn't have the atmosphere of a pub anymore, more of the restaurant it aspires to be, but always an excellent pint from a good choice of ales with Stroud, Wickwar and Uley breweries usually represented and coupled with a guest at times.
