Rooms
As well as the rooms above the pub, there is a choice of newly created rooms with independent access. Whichever one you plump for, rooms are luxuriously fitted with Egyptian cotton on super-king beds, gingham fabrics, floral feature wallpaper and antique furniture. Retro white bathrooms feature rain showers and roll top baths, with bathrooms in the newer rooms boasting Neal's Yard Remedies bath products and underfloor heating.
Rooms are equipped with all the creature comforts to make you feel at home, from mini-fridges with half bottles of Champagne and towelling robes to Tea Pig teas, homemade cookies and Lavazza coffee machines. Wake up to a great breakfast, whether it's freshly made drop scones, porridge with local honey or the full English with Arlington White eggs, Kelmscott bacon and Paddock Farm pork sausages.
Restaurant & bar
The Kingham Plough is still very much a village pub that feeds locals as well as gastro-tourists. Whilst Scotch quails eggs are signature favourites at the bar, the frequently changing restaurant menu keeps things exciting with dishes that delight diners all year round. Try the Cornish mackerel burger or locally shot pheasant Wellington.
Cotswold lager is a best-seller behind the bar, as well as locally brewed Hooky ale and Butcombe bitter from Somerset. Aspall cider is also on offer, alongside several wines plucked from a carefully-chosen European list. The pub's commitment to local sourcing and using seasonal ingredients extends to homemade sloe gin and elderflower cordial using foraged ingredients.
