Beautiful old building. Food and drink was top notch. Room was spacious and the bathroom though quite small, was well appointed. No issues with external noise despite being so close to the A303 dual carriageway. The surrounding area is beautiful.

Definitely worth a stay

Area and hotel is so nice and relaxing. We sat in the beautiful garden enjoying the sunshine when we arrived. Staff are so friendly, helpful and professional throughout our stay. Only down side is the room was clean but a bit shabby especially the carpet which could do with replacing. The food in the restaurant is EXCELLENT and I highly recommend it, the prices were around £15 for a main which is well worth it for the quality and amount of food. We will definitely stay here again - thank you so much to all the staff you are amazing!

Great find! Would stay again

Staff were absolutely fantastic - friendly & helpful. Room was lovely. Outside of the control of the hotel, but a nearby business had a lorry working early in the morning (4am ish) that had an alarm on it that woke us up.

Basic but adequate

Accommodation at the White Horse is fairly basic but comfortable enough for a night or two, with a decent shower and tea/coffee. Unfortunately the night I stayed - Wednesday - is chef's night off, also note that no breakfast is available so be prepared to make other arrangements.

Room wasn't ready on arrival at 1600 dispite check in being from 1500. Requested a double bed but was allocated the only twin room. Helped to push the beds together, but no offer of a double duvet. The room was also cold on arrival. I was advised the heating would soon come on but it never did.

Characterful property near to Thruxton race track. Avoid room 3. Very, very noisy room. Can hear every word spoken in bar below. Like having a loud television on constantly until 11:00 at night. Impossible to relax or sleep in the room because of the incessant noise. Ruined our stay and we went home early.

great food, great beer, excellent and helpful staff , but , room is offered as bed only breakfast is not an option guest have to make their own arrangements offsite. Pity the landlord considered the main bar as his own private area for entertaining his friends. The guests hade to make do with a smaller counter. I spent many frustrating minutes queuing for service from the 1 bar person on duty, whilst the landlord continually came behind the bar to serve his friends ignoring the queuing guests. The White Horse has changed ownership since my 1st stay, which i rated 5/5. My latest rating would be 2/5 Food 5/5 Beer 5/5 Ambience 1/5 service 4/5

Dirty and poor condition

Could not stay there. Cleaning beds and linen and staff where lovely. But carpet stank, the bathroom looked 100 years old and I don't mean retro.... I mean disgustibg. air freshener everywhere and when I opened the windows it was above air conditioner exit vent. Forfeited the paid money and never used it. Disaster.
