This was one if not the best beef roast dinner ever.Just one word ?Amazing? ?The smell of proper roast with all its juices and natural fat, but without being greasy. The vegetables were never boring and cooked to perfection. Flavours were bursting in my mouth and I had to take my time to enjoy ?? every bite.The desserts were delicious too. I had the gooey brownie with ice cream sprinkled with honeycomb crumbs. My partner had the panna cotta and she loved it ?The whole pub was very clean and had this classic romantic ambient in a beautiful countryside setting. You will fall in love with the place and the very pleasant service from everyone working in The Howard Arms in Ilmington village.It was a sunny ?? day of March and after my lunch I could not resist sitting outside on a beach facing the sun. Wow ? The smells of chimneys burning wood, the heat of the sun on my skin, the sounds of birds singing, the views of the sheep ? and young lambs on the hills, blue skies, beautiful typical Cotswold houses and more.You must book in advance or you?ll not get a table ?

EVER.Nearby activities: Hidcote manor garden, Kiftsgate garden, The Cotswolds, Stratford Upon Avon.Walkability: You?d need to drive to the village, but from there, there are hundreds of amazing walks.Food & drinks: Never disappoints. Gastronomy excellence on every level

The owner of this establishment allows fox hunting on his land, do you really want to condone his cruelty to our precious innocent wildlife? Ripping innocent animals apart with dogs, I suggest boycotting this place in the future, I had to leave one Star to leave a review and I definitely didn't want to

Probably one of the best country pub we went to! Great food and fire. We went for small plates and pudding with tea and coffee after. Nice treat after a muddy walk in Ilmington. The assistant manager was very friendly and professional, definitely worth a visit!

We had the most delicious Sunday lunch here. The vegetables were so fresh and the turkey was perfectly cooked. Starters and desserts were sooo good too! The service was fantastic and a beautiful setting. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely old-world Cotswold pub/ restaurant. Food and service great. Open fire in bar area in the colder weather. Separate restaurant is a bit more formal. Gets busy at times, so best to book. Didn?t stay over, so can?t comment on the rooms.Food & drinks: Top quality food and drinks. Interesting menu.
