Beacon & Railway Hotel, Haresfield


Directions

Stroud, Haresfield, GL10 3DX (View on Google Map)
No website available

Hotel - bar/restaurant is open to non-residents.

Lively pub right next to the railway line - a good train spotters' pub.

Premises split with bar on the left of the front door and restaurant dining to the right.

South facing outside seating including some table/bench combos over the road on a grassy area under a tree. Area very quiet with county views but noisy as passing trains break the peace. Great to observe the various configurations of unit and locos/carriages as the pub is located across the road from the line from Gloucester to Bristol/Swindon (before the line splits).

Access to the pub from the car park is available which avoids the steps but there is no WC for disabled.

The pub walls are adorned with many pictures - historic images of Haresfield, the main street pre-tarmac, local farming, the Haresfield station long gone and one of the original owners of the premises - a fascinating look into the past.

*** Opening and food times correct as of 25/02/2025 ***

Historic Interest

Gloucestershire Pubs reports: "The Beacon And Railway Hotel wasibuilt by the Midland Railway. Haresfield Station was opened in May 1854 to serve passengers on the Midland Railway line. The station was closed to passengers on 4th January 1965, but trains still thunder past the pub on the Gloucester-Bristol line"
