Very friendly, helpful and efficient staff, especially the lovely lady who served tasty breakfasts. Lively, cosy bar with a good range of meals. Very clean, comfortable room. Quiet little village, not too far from Marlborough which has lots of shops and eating places. I'd certainly stay here again.

We had a wonderful stay with our little one. All the staff were really friendly and very accommodating. It's a lovely place that is undergoing refurbishment and you can see this in places with some areas looking a bit tired. However we slept so well and had an excellent meal in the evening with massive portions and also a brilliant breakfast in the morning. We would definitely stay again if in the area, thank you.
