The host was very accomodating and friendly, responded quickly. The town home was charming with beautiful antiques. The bed was comfortable and it was so fun to have our breakfast delivered in a basket. We felt like we stepped back in time. We had a very pleasant experience.

Magical Stay

I booked one nights stay as my daughter and I were at Badminton Horse Trials. I had not researched the location before going so was amazed to enter the beautiful village of Lacock. The whole place is unique and the property is so beautiful. We were met by our hosts Rufus and his wife and they could not have been more welcoming. Couldn’t believe with my daughter being the biggest Harry Potter fan we were right in the location for some of the filming. The accommodation was lovely - very thoughtfully decorated and fantastic location. Will definitely book again if we are in the area. 10/10. .
