Inn for Trouble is a 1960 British comedy film - a spin-off of the 1950s sitcom The Larkins - starring Peggy Mount, David Kossoff and Leslie Phillips; the title makes silent allusion to the real Trouble House Inn in Gloucestershire near Tetbury.

The Larkin family takes over a run-down country public house, "The Earl Osbourne", but their efforts to rejuvenate business are impeded by the long-standing tradition of free beer being distributed by the local Earl. The film is notable for the final credited appearance of Graham Moffatt in the role of Jumbo and the final appearance of A. E. Matthews as Sir Hector Gore-Blandish.
