Old Beams is a bed-and-breakfast in Cleeve Prior that offers comfortable accommodation with real character.
The building's timber features are its defining quality, giving the property its distinctive name and reflecting the style of older Cotswolds construction. You'll find it's a relaxed place to stay, ideal if you prefer a slower pace.
Cleeve Prior itself is worth exploring on foot. The village has retained its older homes and a historic church, and there's something restorative about spending time wandering its quiet streets. It's the kind of place where you can decompress before heading out to see more.
The location works well as a base for the northern Cotswolds. Evesham, a proper market town on the River Avon, is just a short drive away if you want proper shops or a different atmosphere. From here you're also well positioned for reaching the more popular destinations like Broadway and Chipping Campden, or making the trip to Stratford-upon-Avon if Shakespeare's connections interest you. Whether you're planning focused exploration of one area or prefer mixing things up with different day trips, you've got good options without needing to relocate every few days.
