The Swan - A historic Grade I listed pub with home-cooked food and live events
Dating back to 1633, The Swan is Thornbury's oldest pub and retains its original coach house structure. The Grade I listed building offers three comfortable guest rooms with flat-screen TVs, kettles, and city views from private patios. Guests share a bathroom and have access to free WiFi, a shared lounge, and a bar serving home-cooked meals seven days a week. Twin rooms at The Swan are located at the front of the building, convenient to local shops and amenities. A continental or à la carte breakfast is available each morning. The pub hosts live music, quiz nights, and bingo events, alongside charity fundraisers that have raised £175000 for local causes. Thornbury Castle is an 8-minute walk away, and Bristol Airport is 28 km from the property. The function room accommodates up to 60 seated or 100 standing guests.

“This B&B stands out for its central location and welcoming atmosphere, a combination that immediately caught my attention. The consistently praised staff, comfortable rooms, and excellent breakfast further enhance its appeal, as does its dog-friendly policy. From what I gather, it's a solid choice for those seeking both value and convenience in Thornbury.”
