The property has a lot of country charm. The inn and restaurant are quite comfy and the food was delicious! The staff are very attentive. Our room was economical and thus small-ish. The twin beds were comfortable and the bathroom was very clean and neat. Overall, very pleased with the accommodations and service.

The room was very clean and comfortable. Quite steep stairs up to the rooms. Fine if you have no mobility issues. The pub is closed on a monday so food and drink unavailable. Lovely breakfast in the morning. I would stay again.

Loved the quaint B&B and the very friendly staff. The food in the pub was great. Best Fish & Chips we've had in the UK. Our room was small but comfortable. Glad we had beautiful sunny weather but it made it a little too warm for us in the room, but of course we aren't expecting A/C in a classic building. We love the charm & character and wouldn't have it any other way.

Stayed here for 4 nights as part of a trip to Wiltshire. The location is stunning perfect distance between Salisbury, Stonehenge and Shaftsbury. The room was comfortable and well equipped and the pub was amazing. Drinks were well priced and there was a good selection. Food was expensive but looked fantastic. The breakfast was amazing and really set you up for the day. The lady who served breakfast and cleaned our room, Karen, was absolutely brilliant! So friendly and warm. Would definitely go back!

This is a wonderful location for us, especially with the large parking lot compared to tight roads and limited parking. The breakfast included was great and the evening fish and hips was huge helpings to fill us up. The only issue we had was the narrow, steep stairs to the second floor. We compromised and put the items we needed into backpacks and left the 2 large suitcases in the car. It was a treat to sta at a 1600 inn.

James

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Charming 16th century coaching inn with original features. The room was clean and tidy if a little plain and tired could do with a make over. TV too small to view comfortably from the bed. Carpet thread bare on the very steep stairs leading to rooms. Food was good breakfast excellent evening meal was good but very expensive with extras attached to many dishes, had to eat in the bar with all the noise, ment we could not converse comfortably over our meal. The price for our dog on trivago was put at £10-00 but the hotel wanted £15-00. It would be nice if you could agree as to who is correct. We will not be returning.
