Best Western

Best Western The Compass Inn

Tormarton,  GL9 1JB

The Best Western Compass Inn is nestled away in the heart of the countryside, yet less than 10 miles away from both vibrant Bristol and historical Bath.

On the South edge of the Cotswolds, you'll have ample opportunity to immerse yourself in rural life to the full, without venturing too far from the towns and cities that make this part of England so appealing! The hotel itself stands in 5 acres of beautiful grounds, but you'll also find plenty of walks to enjoy close by as the famous "Cotswold Way" walking trail that runs from Chipping Camden to Bath, runs right past the door! With easy access to both the M4 and M5 motorways, you can get out and about further afield if you prefer, or simply take advantage of the convenient location for meetings and functions if you're organising an event.
