We liked the personal welcome from the owner, the breakfast was delicious and cooked to your taste and eaten off china. The hosts were lovely and very helpful with local information. The room was spotlessly clean and finished to a high standard. The bathroom was lovely, clean and bright and inviting. We were very comfortable there. The only thing missing was a mirror in the main bedroom. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it.

What a lovely place to stay, family run and full of beautiful nooks, including in the garden. We thought we’d just be there to sleep and then go adventuring during the day but I’d like to go back and sit in the garden with my book 😊

This was an amazing experience! These people have been doing this for 40 years, and have it down! Hospitality is second nature to them! Everything was lovely! They gave us the family suite so we wouldn’t have to bring our luggage upstairs. Hilary made the most perfect breakfast and it was so lovely to chat with her. Highly recommend this place for home away from home! Definitely going back again!

So homely! Even though it wasn’t a walking distance to the High Street for us, we loved everything about it ! The room had 3 beds, very spacious, quiet, clean amenities and super comfy bedding. My mother-in-law had breakfast and she was very happy with it. We will definitely stay again when in Salisbury and HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Comfy B&B in Salisbury

A friend and I stayed in this lovely B&B in Salisbury. We were warmly welcomed by the charming lady of the house and quickly settled. Our room and beds were very comfy and breakfast most satisfying, even for my vegan friend.

We had a wonderful stay at The Old House in Salisbury! The owners were incredibly kind and accommodating, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and plentiful—something for everyone in the family to enjoy. Our room was so comfortable and beautifully decorated, with lovely touches that made it feel both cozy and special. As a family of four (two adults and two tweens, aged 11 and 12), we found the space perfect for our needs. We were genuinely sorry we only booked one night—next time, we’ll definitely stay longer!

A great deal of kindness was shown to me as a single woman desperate for somewhere to stay close to the court. All around superb. Very clean, just that there was a little dust and women see dust; men don't (laugh). It was great and I will recommend it as a good stay for other lawyers who want to be close to the courts.
