A very comfortable last minute stay in this lovely pub. The rooms are very cosy and comfortable, the service outstanding and the food just delicious. The only thing I'd change is the plug and bright green fire escape lighting that illuminates the room too much for a good night's sleep. Overall a very lovely stay.

Excellent accommodation. The room 'Bigwig' was large, comfortable with a spacious ensuite. Clean and well decorated. The pub did lovely food both day, evening and breakfast. We were made to feel very welome and the service was really good. Would definitely visit again and wish the guys the best of luck in their new endeavour.

We had a lovely night here on the evening of the relaunch. Accommodation was comfortable and clean with plenty of room. We had a great meal in the lounge. Really good to see a village pub taking on a new lease of life with ambitious, energetic and enthusiastic staff.

It is a great country/cottage style accommodation. Don’t expect high end rooms, some details needs to be looked after, but that is part of the experience for me.

10/10

Excellent accommodation 5 minutes from Highclere Castle, free breakfast was amazing and the food on offer from the restaurant topped the one night stay. Accomodation is not attached to the pub but a walk across the car park, room’s three doors are in need of a joiner’s attention as they need easing to stop them catching on the floor but is adequate for a reasonably priced room
