This is a charming, family-run inn near Highclere Castle (Downton Abbey). The accommodations were comfortable although simple, and the pub is fantastic, with really excellent food. The service by the family that owns th Inn and their employees is very good. The prices are reasonable, and the locals are friendly. The garden is very pretty also. No complaints, would stay again. The tomato soup and goat cheese salad were standouts.

Good stay

Gave us what it said on the box. Room a little small but fine for our one night stay. King rather than double bed would have been better.

The Furze Bush Inn

I only stopped for one night as I was attending a show at Newbury. My room was very large and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and attentive and able to help me with gluten free options (of which there were plenty). Pub and restaurant areas are fantastic. All in all a great stay :)
