Thwaites Inns
Embrace the new season with Daniel Thwaites’ five-star inn, The Fleece in Cirencester. Whether it’s a spring-inspired Sunday lunch or a two-night mid-week getaway, now’s the time for longer days and (hopefully) nicer weather.
Beat the Monday blues and escape for a Sunday night break this spring. Check-in, unwind and enjoy a glass of wine – or a pint of Thwaites ale - before heading out to explore the local area.
Known as the ‘Capital of the Cotswolds’ and steeped in Roman history, just the grand architecture alone is something to behold as you stroll around between café’s, artisan shops and pubs. Head for Cirencester Park for a gentle wander through the Earl and Countess Bathurst’s estate or to dig deeper into Cirencester’s history, visit The Corinium Museum.
After a busy day sightseeing, nestle down in the inn’s restaurant for a hearty, homecooked meal before slipping off for a cosy night’s sleep. Small details make a big difference, which is why Daniel Thwaites ensures every room comes with a few little extras including deliciously crumbly biscuits and fresh milk for a morning brew.
Based on two people sharing, prices for a one-night Sunday getaway start from £125 per room*

Dog-friendly rooms
As dog lovers, the teams across Daniel Thwaites’ inns take care of canine companions from the moment they check-in to the moment they ‘wag’ their tail goodbye. The inns have a dedicated number of dog-friendly rooms and beloved pets receive their very own comfy bed as well as an exciting ‘Waggy Tails’ welcome pack – complete with food bowl and dog biscuits*.
All four-legged guests are welcome in the bar areas while also enjoying the outdoor space surrounding the property.
*£20 charge. Subject to availability and welcome packs may vary.
The Fleece has a range of menus available. Whether you want to sink your teeth into a bavette steak, savour the Ploughman’s board or just indulge your sweet tooth with a dessert, you’ll find something that takes your fancy. For hungry little eaters with big appetites, they also have an action-packed children’s menu.
Traditionally, Sunday is a day of rest, so it makes perfect sense to let the inn’s team of chefs do all the hard work. Whether it’s a quick re-fuel or part of a longer staycation, Sunday lunch is always a good idea. Packed full of tempting flavours and locally sourced ingredients, the offering includes a choice of different cuts and of course, they have all the traditional trimmings, from homemade Yorkshire puddings to a medley of seasonal vegetables*.

Found in the charming market town of Cirencester, The Fleece is conveniently located an hour away from Bath and Oxford, and just two hours away from central London. From the stunning surrounding landscapes to the traditional market square, there’s something for everyone to enjoy, and The Fleece is the ideal base to experience it all from.
Established in 1807, Lancashire-based, family-owned Daniel Thwaites boasts a unique collection of award-winning inns, hotels, and spa hotels across England.
