Opening its doors on Friday 13 July 2018 boasting an entirely new look, The Frogmill is promising guests ‘stylish rooms with bags of old-world Cotswold charm’.

The renovation begins with an entirely new bar area, housed in the heart of the inn, using additional space from the former cellar.

Its former bar has been turned into a cosy snug, complete with open fire. Similarly, The Frogmill’s new-look restaurant has been extended and given an open-plan layout. Decorated with a classic Cotswold palette, the dining space featured timber-clad walls, oak beans and flagstone flooring.

The Frogmill’s 28 en-suite bedrooms have also benefitted from a luxurious upgrade. Favouring a more ‘boutique feel’, vintage furnishings are juxtaposed with modern feature tiling and waterfall showers to create a plush space, perfect for visitors to unwind.

There’s also updates to The Frogmill’s event space and outdoor area. The inn’s extensive grounds now offer a landscaped, dog-friendly retreat including a dining terrace, perfect for an alfresco drink on a warm weekend.

Tom Davies, chief executive of Brakspear, the firm which owns The Frogmill, said: ‘We’re incredibly excited that the opening date for our new-look Frogmill is almost upon us and the site is really starting to take shape.

‘It’s amazing to see the fruits of our labour come together after months of hard work and we can’t wait to reveal exactly what this much-loved inn has up its sleeves for locals and tourists alike.’
