SquareMeal Review of The Fuzzy Duck

Everything feels right on the money at this suitably gorgeous take on a country pub. From the elegant rustic-chic interior (note the old apple press now functioning as a pair of tables) to the well-respected real ales, homemade flavoured vodkas, retro bar snacks and appealing carte, there’s no arguing with the all-round appeal. Top shouts in the dining room include local game (wild rabbit ravioli or pot-roast roe deer with heritage carrots, sweet cicely and blackberries), deep-fried cod cheeks, fantastic home-baked milk bread and ‘whatchamacallit’ – a chocoholic’s dream incorporating cobnut, caramel and damson sorbet. The pub is now owned by the family behind Baylis & Harding, so expect lovely bedrooms kitted out with their gorgeous beauty products. Readers talk about ‘originality, exclusivity and quality’ – no wonder the place is a ‘guilty pleasure’ for locals and a perfect package for savvy travellers.

You gotta try it!
I have eaten here about four times now, and i have to say if you are looking for a new place to eat you gotta try The Fuzzy Duck. Nestled in the beautiful Cotswolds, this restaurant and boutique bed and breakfast has become my favourite guilty pleasure. The ambience was chic and relaxing and the food was delicious. The menu changes depending on seasonal locally sourced produce, hence you never get bored with the same old dishes. My recent visit for lunch was a starter of wild rabbit ravioli, followed by the rib eye steak by an award winning local meat supplier, “proper” home made chips, and all polished off with a tangy and refreshing lemon tart. Luxury is attention to detail, originality, exclusivity and above all quality. I would definitely recommend others to give it a try. The staff were welcoming, attentive and friendly, thank you!
