The model village is located behind The Old New Inn on Rissington Road, and was created by a former landlord of the pub...

Cafés and delis
The photogenic Bakery on the Wateris known for its bread, made using a long fermentation time to develop the flavour and give it a crunchy crust. And they also make freshly baked scones, pastries, cakes and quiches – plus some of the best sausage rolls around. You can grab a takeaway, one of their picnic baskets to eat by the water or eat in at their café and riverside garden. If you fancy a lunchtime light bite or sweet treat, head to The Riverside Café or The Den, both located where the Hig...
Pubs
Bourton’s newest pub is The Willow, whose owners Fullers have converted former tea room next to the Motor Museum into a stylish waterside pub. There’s a big beer garden where you can soak up the sun, and a menu which mixes traditional pub food with local produce like Biburytrout. The Mousetrap Innis just out of the centre of Bourton so has a bit more of a local feel. This historic pub is bursting with charm but still feels light and bright, with a range of local ales. The menu features high-e...
Restaurants
L’Anatra(which literally means ‘the duck’, appropriately enough for Bourton) is an Italian restaurant which is part of the Chester House Hotel. Their stone-baked pizzas are amazing but they also serve other Italian classics like pasta, risotto, meat and fish dishes along with a selection of Italian wines – and make sure to leave room for a bowl of their creamy tiramisu. The Rose Tree Restaurantis set in a cosy Grade II-listed stone cottage with a garden on the banks of the River Windrush. It’...
