Very charming. We had a lovely dinner in front of a crackling log fire. My partner’s onion soup was the best he’d ever tasted, even better than fancy restaurants in Paris! The bedroom was set apart from the main building so it was nice and quiet and we slept well. We got up early for winter solstice sunrise at Stonehenge intending to be back in time for breakfast, however we were a little late back, but the owner was very accommodating and made sure we still got fed. We would happily stay there again!

The room was clean enough, but not spotless. A mark on the sheet, cobwebs etc, but all hygienic. The room smelt slightly damp. With that out of the way, the service was friendly, the room was a good size and bed comfortable, shower excellent. It was all adjoined to a lovely village pub in a great location.

Pleasant

Pleasant & quiet. Comfy bed, good shower. Shame no fresh milk nor anyone to ask for any in the morning.No one to hand over key to. Simple no cost things like removing ugly signs from room would improve it.

Perfectly imperfect

The rooms are perfectly imperfect in my opinion, lovely place to stay, rooms are more homely than a like for like hotel. Bear in mind the surroundings that contribute to the impossible task of keeping these rooms 100% spotless. Wonderful place would definitely visit again.

Beautiful place with friendly staff & good food!

Just searched for some way to stay on the way home. Found this as it looked so pretty in the pictures, it was the same in real life. Beautiful traditional pub, great food. Lovely friendly staff. Lots of dogs around which was great! Had an overcharge accidently and before I was home the pub had called to say they needed to refund. Would highly recommend ! Thanks
