We spent a week in our caravan at a designated site next to the river. It is a perfect spot to relax and immerse yourself in nature. The historic pub on site is a beautiful old building with a lovely atmosphere. Sam, the owner, is fantastic and goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is enjoyable. The food is delicious pub fare, and the Sunday carvery is excellent. It's best to book in advance as it is very popular. The location is ideal, and we visit several times a year. The historic town of Tewkesbury and the Cotswolds are nearby. The Lode is a great base for exploring these areas or simply unwinding in the picturesque surroundings.
Walked to the Lower Lode from Tewkesbury for a Sunday Carvery. It was well worth the walk! All the staff were friendly and chatty. We had a few drinks and a carvery each. Meat choices were beef, turkey or gammon, they all looked so nice I couldn’t decide so I had a bit of each! They were all fabulous, perfectly cooked, moist and really tasty. There was a superb range of vegetables to choose from and roasties and yorkies too. I would highly recommend and we will certainly be back again!
No criticism of the staff who are friendly and prompt and we have had meals here many times ..but today the chef at the carvery was rude ..I asked what was veggie...the roast potatoes he announced were cooked in goose fat quote the way they should be ..the gravies were meat based ..the Yorkshire pudding like cardboard ..such a great location and family friendly ..please be vegetarian friendly
I have visited this restaurant a couple of times for bike meets, and I have to say that it has the potential to be a great place. However, the bar staff are extremely slow and unfriendly. I would have considered trying the food, but the poor service put me off. I hope the staff can improve their attitudes and service, as it could make a big difference.

Fab weekend away, great food and Sam and the team are second to none. Lovely room overlooking the river which was so peaceful. Great couple of nights in the pub too and Trev's Sunday carvery is delicious! Fully recommend a visit in your caravan, camper, tent or a room
I haven't visited this restaurant in a long time, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that both the quality of the food and the service have improved. The dishes were delicious and reasonably priced.
Stopped in our Motorhome fabulous site with glorious views over the Severn. Wonderful evening meal and we couldn’t resist the full English breakfast in the morning! Lazy motor homing :
Terrible …… nice location but simply terrible food and service. I spent 2 hours waiting for food and once it turned up it was terrible… Don’t let this place ruin your day!!!
