فاير سيرفيس كوليدج

Recently attended a three day Christian Retreat at the College (organised by our local church). The absolute perfect setting to escape from the hustle, bustle and stresses of daily life. The College has first class accommodation, excellent food and friendly and courteous staff (particularly the chef and his team). And as Christians, the availability of the beautiful College Chapel, together with lecture rooms was perfect for the group's (20) needs. Highly recommended

We weren't sure what to expect, given the 24hr security barrier staff on the main gate, but they had our reservation so no problem. The facility is used during the weeking week for residential fire training courses, but is open to the public for weekend bookings. No food is available although you can use the guest kitchen facilities including microwave. Reception desk very helpful. The site is large and we needed car directions to find the right residential wing. It's quite modern, complete with lifts, and rooms are spacious with comfortable double beds. For the Cotswolds it's cheap, but obviously no frills and you have to get dinner and breakfast elsewhere. We had sandwiches in the evening (bought from the Coop in Moreton in Marsh) and then treated ourselves to a hotel full breakfast the following morning. (again, there are several such in Moreton who are happy to help) Don't be put off.

Do yourself a favour and stay somewhere else. It’s a military like facility in the middle of nowhere with no customer service after 6pm. The heating wasn’t working on the entire building. We asked security to turn it on or provide another room (in another building?) and they weren’t helpful and were deceitful. We slept in a freezing cold room. We sent a complaint and never received a reply.
