Great location as it is at the top of the main shopping street. Staff were friendly, breakfast was great, plenty of free parking on site and easy to get to and from the main A34 dual carriageway. Tea and coffee facilities in the room are great, a small thing but it made a big difference.

I booked the Chequers as a mid way journey point before moving to France. Hotel was easy to find and park car in large rear car park. Receptionist was enchanting and helpful. Bar staff were very good, friendly and helpful. Rooms clean and tidy. Whole venue oozes with character. All staff were exceptional. Thanks for a lovely stay 😊
