I had been very ill with pneumonia and was really beginning to recover mid December 2011, so my wonderful partner wanted to take me out for a meal to a pub near where we had just recently moved. Imagine my horror when the good I had ordered, Beer Battered Cod with Chips was served. The Chips were awful. They looked... More

I am all for freedom of speech!! In this instance the only response this review needs is to say A very big congratulations to the lady that wrote it, she must be very proud to have been nominated for both the "MAN BOOKER PRIZE" and also "THE STORY PRIZE" and I,m very sure that if she continues with her reviews...

have many times met friends at the Inn and always the food and service has been excellent. The standard of cooking is superb and the ony complaint is that the portions were a bit too large. Have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone for lunch or dinner More

The carpeted entrance area into the pub itself is black. With dirt, not by design. The accommodation block has a substantial stair and landing carpet that is probably domestic grade. It has a worn dirty track down the middle. My room carpet was also stained and dirty. There were other issues but for the sake of brevity lets just say... More

I would just like to say that we are a very busy country pub and do not have time to respond to every review written about us, obviously reviews are a very personal view and as long standing experienced publicans of over 15yrs we are well aware that you can not please everyone all of the time, we do however...

Popped in en route to Somerset for a bite to eat, had the club sandwich and thought Pasta with Pesto was a great option for the kids menu, if anything the portions were overly large (shouldn't complain really), really enjoyed it. The young chaps behind the bar and serving were very attentive and polite. More

The proprietors are a miserable couple who seem to regard paying guests as an inconvenience. They have no idea how to provide a welcome or look after guests. They would be well advised to consider another occupation as clearly the hospitality industry is not for them. The letting rooms are sited on the first floor of a converted outbuilding and... More

Room very pleasant, clean and comfortable, walls a bit thin, could hear people next door clearly, that was the only down side. Liked the fact that TV did not dominate the room, as in some places, although TV reception not good, nice DVD library to borrow from, evening meal cheap and very good, breakfast very good. Showers in all rooms... More

We stayed here during a trip to the Salisbury races (ideal as it is only the other side of Wilton House). Easy to find and only a few miles out of town yet far enough out of town to be in the countryside. Hospitality was great; we were given a warm welcome and shown to our room which was clean... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here with another couple. Rooms were nice, comfortable beds, clean washrooms & bath, functioning TV with complementary DVDs. Attached to a very authentic pub. Great atmosphere and comfortable seating with big couches and 2 big fire places. Had a delicious 3 course meal for only 10£ which included steak, salmon and the sort. Rave reviews... More
